IES Jándula

IES Jándula participates in Andalucía Game Jam with students from the SMR, DAM and DAW courses — nearly 44 students combining their respective specialisations in an integrative project centred on video game development. The two-day training programme, delivered by Eonesia, aims to give students a hands-on understanding of the professional workflow for integrating animations in a real development environment, using Unity as the main engine. The first day focuses on development fundamentals: the Unity interface, GameObjects management, components and project structure. Through an introduction to C#, students implement movement logic and physics to create simple playable mechanics. The central part of the day breaks down the concept of the «animation pipeline»: the theoretical cycle of capture, processing, export and integration, working with external FBX files and Unity's Animator. The second day brings this theory to life through an immersive experience with motion capture (mocap) technology. Students delve into the processing of raw data from an inertial suit — cleaning and adaptation — and take part in a live demonstration where they capture their own movements, process the capture, export it to the engine and integrate it into the prototype developed the previous day. This structure provides a comprehensive view of the industry, connecting motion capture technique with final implementation in the video game. The workshop concludes with prototype refinement and pair project proposals, encouraging the autonomous application of the knowledge acquired. The culmination will be participation in the Game Jam & Showcase at the Edificio El Banco in Jaén.
