Are you a video game enthusiast, aspiring digital artist, or animation lover? If you answered, yes, to any of these questions, then you may also have interests in learning 3D Arts. So let's work together to help start your journey into the world of 3D arts. In this beginner-friendly course, students can learn the ins- and -outs of the Blender 3D software within 4 weekly sessions. What You’ll Learn: ✅ See what Blender can do for you! ✅ How to navigate and work within a 3D environment ✅ Various Blender workspaces ✅ A basic introduction to modeling tools Why Learn Blender 3D? Blender is a completely free 3D software that is available to all who want to learn and understand 3D arts. Over the past decade, Blender has become even more unique and powerful as more and more users join this massive 3D community. Today, Blender is slowly becoming an industry standard for several other commercial or production platforms. 🗓️ Week 1: Navigating the 3D environment Kickstart your 3D journey with an introduction to Blender! In this beginner-friendly course, students will learn how to navigate the 3D workspace, or general 3D environment for most 3D-based software/spaces. Plus, gain a better understanding of the different kinds of content that the Blender 3D software can help create for you! 🗓️ Week 2: Blender Workspaces The Blender 3D software possesses at least 6 different modes, including several various secondary modes. We will take a pick into each of these modes to better understand what they can do for all your 3D creation needs. Additionally, each mode also has a particular workspace that you can quickly navigate to for easier access. 🗓️ Week 3: Modeling tools Learn the fundamentals of 3D modeling by understanding the most commonly used modeling tools, including keyboard 'shortcut keys' to quickly activate them. We will dive into essential tools, such as move, rotate, and scale. Plus, see how those same tools help alter different components of your 3D geometry, such as vertices, edges, and faces. 🗓️ Week 4: Tips and Tricks! During this last week, I will share some information about Blender add-ons/extensions. Furthermore, we will take some time to have a little creative fun! Everyone will have some time to play and experiment with their newly gained knowledge of the Blender 3D software tools by creating some abstract art. Or, test your abilities by creating a selected object. Teacher's choice, of course!😏 🎭 At the end of each session, students can share ideas of what they learned for the day. Plus, what they enjoyed most about the software. So Join us and start your 3D journey today! 🚀
