VFX and Virtual Production Specialist Training Programmes Dynamic Purchasing System

The Irish government authority is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System to create a panel of specialist training providers. The agency needs advanced, hands-on training programmes in VFX, virtual production, animation, games, and post-production. This initiative aims to address the evolving needs of professionals working within Ireland’s creative industries. The scope of work covers specialist training in the use of real-time engines, such as Unreal Engine and Unity, for film, television, animation, games, and commercial production workflows. Requested topics include virtual scouting, previsualization, real-time lighting, and asset optimisation for VFX and virtual production pipelines. The agency also requires training in colour science, digital intermediate workflows, colour management pipelines like ACES, HDR mastering, on-set colour workflows, and grading for VFX-heavy productions. Bidders must be located onshore in Ireland to be eligible for this opportunity. The performance of the training services can take place either onsite or offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget and has not disclosed a specific funding limit or key dates in the initial request.
