3D+Design

Advanced 3D Technologies course introduces students to 3D design and animation techniques. Students learn basic 3D modeling, lighting, textures, effects, animation, and programming. Students explore how to use 3D models in filmmaking, game production, television, online content development, advertising and visualization. At the end of the course, all students develop a digital portfolio online. Students print objects on a 3D printer, which transforms student designs from virtual prototypes to material objects.
