Singapore Polytechnic (SP) signed Memorandums of Understanding with SPH Media and the Visual, Audio, Creative Content Professionals Association (VICPA) to upskill students and freelancers with virtual production and AI.

Through this partnership, SPH Media’s STUDIO+65 will offer students hands-on experience in virtual production, storytelling, and digital content creation, providing opportunities for internships, job shadowing, scholarships, and awards.

Meanwhile, VICPA will conduct Singapore’s first study on creative freelancing, examining how AI and emerging technologies are reshaping the industry.
