Human Anatomy Through Cadaver Study
For Educational and Training Centers
A Valuable Addition to Your Educational Program
Our proposal is to introduce the teaching of human anatomy for artists through a unique and innovative methodology, combining the practical study of real human anatomy on cadavers at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Valencia with ZBrush visualization and a wide range of high-value educational resources.
This transformative experience allows students to learn anatomy in the same spirit as great masters such as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo Buonarroti, and to apply that knowledge directly to their artistic creations, characters, and creatures.
The program can be integrated as part of a master's degree, an academic course, an independent module, or an intensive specialized training program.
Who Is It For?
We offer an artistic anatomy course specifically designed to be integrated into the educational programs of schools and training centers focused on art, design, sculpture, 3D, illustration, animation, and related creative disciplines.
What Does This Course Bring to Your Institution?
- A unique and innovative approach to anatomy: visual, three-dimensional, and directly applicable to artistic practice.
- Specialized instruction from professionals with experience at studios such as Weta Digital, ILM, and Ubisoft, together with the participation of the Professor of Anatomy at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Valencia.
- A distinctive methodology that brings science and art together in a truly exceptional learning experience.
- A clear and progressive teaching approach, designed to deliver visible results from the very first sessions. Anatomy has never been taught quite like this.
- Complete flexibility in format, duration, number of sessions, and educational focus, adapting to the needs, size, and background of each institution. Training is delivered live and in person.
