Overview
3D Studio Max is an industry standard three-dimensional modelling, animation and rendering application. It enables the user to create, render in a variety of materials, and animate virtually anything. It is widely used in engineering, product design, architecture, film and animation.
During the 3D Studio Max for Designers and Makers course from Arts University Bournemouth, you will be introduced to the basics of 3D Studio Max, perfect for those who are new to this area, or those who wish to refresh their skills in 3D modelling and visualisation.
Starting with the basic layout of the program, you will then learn the processes of creating basic objects and the modification tools that can be used on them, moving onto creating models with the editable poly modelling tools and then the animation tools within the program. From the modelling and animation of objects you will move on to the creation of materials and basic application as well as the use of lights.
Course Aims
- You will also learn valuable real world hints and tips acquired over years of experience in 3D Studio Max
- Cover all main topic areas, as well as best practice principles
- Throughout the course, you will have the chance to create your own item as you develop your skills or practice the methods and tools that you learn during the sessions
- To provide a set of tasks each session in which to practice and consolidate your understanding. Students are walked through each process to completion
- Practical – The students are expected, with support from the tutor, to gain independence within each category taught
Course Outcomes And Assessment
- The goal of this course is to give the student a comprehensive overview, understanding and hands-on experience working with 3D Studio Max
- By the end of the course you will have a greater understanding of some of the most commonly used techniques within the program and feel confident in modelling, animating and the mapping of objects
- All students with 100% course attendance will be issued with an official AUB Short Course Certificate of Attendance detailing course contents, and study hours
