3D Modeling In Blender: Design Your First 3D Object
First, Derek will guide you through the Blender interface and basic 3D modeling techniques by building out the color and materials in a 3D scene from scratch: a cabinet, shelves, window and pots all lit up by a realistic sky texture.
Level Up in Blender: Sculpt an Advanced 3D Scene
Next up, Derek will share how to use more advanced 3D modeling techniques to create a more dynamic interior scene. Design realistic objects with advanced modeling techniques, build an architectural room scene, discover the power of premade assets and modifiers, and add color and texture to your scene using 3D materials.
Elevate Your 3D Designs: Lighting and Materials in Blender
Now it’s time to explore the theory of lighting and how it can affect the mood of your scene, create realistic textures using settings like roughness and metal, use image textures and UV maps for more life-like 3D objects, and adjust camera framing and focus to finalize your scene.
Animation in Blender: Bring Your 3D Renders to Life
Let's get things moving with animation! In this class, you’ll discover how to create keyframes, add a variety of motion and camera views, and simple cloth and looping animations to unleash your inner 3D animator.
Advanced 3D Animation: Create Professional Renders with Blender
Finally, create a finished commercial using some of Blender’s most advanced and interesting animation tools and techniques. Derek will also walk you through how to add armatures, use a rigid body simulation and add smooth, fluid camera motion to your final production.
