On July 11, Lumina Academy successfully hosted the workshop "Shaping the Animation & Games Industry in the AI Era," bringing together students, professionals, and aspiring artists interested in 3D, Animation, Game Development, and Artificial Intelligence.
More than just a technical seminar, the event created an open forum where participants explored how AI is reshaping the creative industry while discussing the skills and mindset required to thrive in the years ahead.
UNDERSTANDING THE EVOLUTION OF THE ANIMATION & GAMES INDUSTRY
Throughout the two-hour workshop, participants gained valuable insights into the current landscape of the Animation and Games industry, both in Vietnam and internationally.
Industry experts shared practical perspectives on emerging technologies, production pipelines, recruitment trends, and the evolving expectations placed on creative professionals.
HOW AI IS RESHAPING CREATIVE PRODUCTION
One of the workshop's key topics focused on the growing role of Artificial Intelligence in modern production workflows.
Through real-world studio case studies, speakers demonstrated how AI is being integrated into creative pipelines to improve efficiency while also discussing the opportunities and challenges that artists will encounter as technology continues to evolve.
A highlight of the discussion centered on one of today's most frequently asked questions:
“Will AI replace artists?” Rather than offering simple answers, the speakers shared practical insights from the perspective of professionals currently leading production teams and managing creative projects.
BUILDING THE SKILLS THAT MATTER
Beyond technology, the workshop emphasized the long-term value of creative thinking, problem-solving, storytelling, collaboration, and continuous learning.
The speakers agreed that while AI will become an increasingly important production tool, human creativity, artistic judgment, and visual storytelling remain the defining strengths of successful artists.
AN INTERACTIVE Q&A SESSION
The event concluded with an engaging Q&A session, where participants discussed career development, industry expectations, portfolio building, recruitment trends, and the future relationship between AI and creative professionals.
These conversations provided practical guidance for students and young artists preparing to enter the rapidly changing creative industry.
LOOKING TOWARD THE FUTURE
