The training program is intended to unite the analog techniques of make-up artistry with the digital techniques of the computer. The course is divided into two phases: in a four-week basic seminar, fundamentals in drawing and animation are taught at a price of 3,000 euros. Only the most talented aspirants are then considered for the 34-week main seminar, which costs 18,000 euros. Completed training as a make-up artist is not required, but people interested in the course should have three-dimensional imagination and design skills. The number of participants is limited to five people per course. Specialists from Alias|Wavefront provide support and training for the Maya program.
