Description

Class Experience

Blender is a fantastic tool that is slowly becoming the leading 3d software. Blender used in Unity, 3d modeling, and animation. Many professional studios are now making the switch into Blender. A great example of this is Pixar used Blender to model Mr. Incredible!  

This class is for the those who know Blender and want to dive into 3d character animation. Students need to know Blender in order to take this class, because we will dive straight into animating a skull.

Blender is free to...

The end goal is for students to be able to do their own 3d character animations with Blender.

I have 10 years of experience with Blender, and had an Internship with Disney Imagineer Mark Page to make him the "Kana's Island" short.

Homework will be any project that was not completed that day. All of the project build on each other so its very important to get them all done.

Learners must have a https://www.mixamo.com/, and https://www.blendswap.com account. 

A computer that is powerful enough to support Blender, download Blender and see if you computer can support it: https://www.blender.org

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

1 hour 30 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.

Students need to be comfortable with creating accounts to blendswap and mixamo to get free resources.

all sources are free, but some may need to make an account
