Blender 3D Modeling and Animation Level 2 In this 10 lesson project-based course, students will learn various techniques to model, render, and animate in the 3D software blender. Our lessons teach fundamental skills to use 3D software such as modeling, texturing, UV unwrapping, texture painting, rigging, and animation. Students will learn to make their very own character that can be implemented into common 3D game engines or used in their own personal animations or artworks. Students will learn a new concept in every lesson with vital feedback instruction from our experienced coaches. All students will be asked to apply what they’ve learned in a final project that will be presented to their peers. There will be some reinforcement quizzes for students to complete after lessons, along with review games that will be played in the final class meetings to ensure students remember material and are prepared to take the next steps in their 3D adventures. For a week to week program, check out the syllabus.
Learning Goals
In this 10-lesson course using Blender, students learn essential 3D modeling, texturing, rigging, and animation techniques to create custom characters usable in games or personal projects, receiving valuable feedback from coaches.Culminating in a final project presentation, the course includes quizzes and review games to solidify learning and prepare students for further exploration in 3D design.
Syllabus
10 Lessons
over 2 WeeksLesson 1:
Basic concept review
An introduction to what Blender is and how it can be used. All basic controls, menus, and tools are reviewed to ensure students are comfortable and prepared for the intermediate concepts covered in future lessons. 60 mins online live lesson
Lesson 2:
Character Modeling
Students will implement their knowledge of modeling techniques and modifiers to model a humanoid character that will be improved upon throughout the course. Discussion will be held on how good topology techniques can make animation easier. 60 mins online live lesson
Lesson 3:
UV Mapping
Students what a UV map is and how it relates to their models. Various techniques to unwrap a model's UVs are explored to prepare their characters for texturing. Including marking seams as well as utilizing blender’s automatic features. 60 mins online live lesson
Lesson 4:
Texturing
Students will learn about how to apply textures to their model to create captivating appearances. As well as explore how procedural materials are created for more dynamic 3D appearances. 60 mins online live lesson
