3D Modeling Part 1 - Object Modeling

How do people create those items and objects found in games and architecture renderings, well you're in luck this is the beginning class that will walk the students through the 3d modeling process. During this four week class we will explore 3d modeling while focusing on creating different items. 

Over the course of this class students will learn 3 modeling techniques and then spend one class staging their work with lights, camera's and animations. The class will be run as if the student is a new intern at a game studio, and is for beginners who are looking to learn about 3d modeling over a period of time. We will be using the software Blender as our platform to work on our 3d models. This is a free software and available at the website https://www.blender.org/.

Each class will be 90 mins where the students will spend an hour following along with me and then 30 minutes to work on the weekly assignment in class and ask questions from me. Each week students will receive a different assignment to continue after class. These modeling assignments will take at least 1 hour of time after class and are due 24 hours before the next class meeting.

Week 1 will introduce students to moving around in a 3d world and creating their first models using box modeling. 
During week 2 I will introduce students to low polygon modeling and using the editing tools.
For week 3 we will work on high polygon modeling and creating fake geometry using textures.
In week 4 we will play with lights, cameras and animations to show off the students work.
