Welcome, Y'all Creative Rockstars!
3D graphics is taking the world of entertainment and visual design. From AR/VR, 3D mock-ups, motion graphics, UX design, visual communication, animation to game design - creatives now have a huge arsenal of software and apps to create 3D visual arts and experiences.
From my years of teaching in renowned universities, I have the opportunity to work with students with astounding talents in the fine arts, illustration, fashion, photography, film, and graphic design. I recognized a challenge many creatives face: 3D design can be overwhelming for many creatives - the complex workflow from 3D navigation and modeling, texturing, lighting, rendering, and post-image editing can take away our initial fuse of inspiration and creativity: This is what inspired me to create this fun and practical project-based course - to inspire and work with creatives new in 3D design to create 3D graphics easily.
This course is designed for creatives who:
Are new to the world of 3D graphics and design, and want a less technical approach to learning about 3D design.
Are seasoned graphic designers who want to incorporate 3D graphics into their projects and portfolio.
Want to quickly and easily incorporate 3D artwork and design for clients' presentation.
Want to use 3D graphics in their school assignments.
Want to harness the creative possibilities in working between 2D and 3D graphics inside Adobe Creative Cloud ecosystem.
Adobe Dimension:
We will be using Adobe Dimension to kickstart our journey into the world of 3D design. Adobe Dimension offers many advantages for creatives:
Native 3D design app in Adobe Creative Cloud ecosystem: Ability to create content for UX/AR, design 3D graphics with Photoshop, product and brand visualization, and virtual photography.
Import 3D models from other applications such as Adobe Medium (VR sculpting tool), and seamless integration with Adobe Aero to create Augmented Reality content in a fun and engaging creative environment.
Create realistic 3D renders with a suite of lighting tools, including HDRI: image-based lighting.
Create 3D materials very easily with Adobe Capture using tablets and smartphones.
Present and render 3D art with photographs: Matching photographic perspective and lighting.
What you will learn in this course:
Working with 3D models in Adobe Dimension.
Produce realistic 3D renders using studio and image-based lighting techniques.
Polish your 3D renders in Photoshop for final presentation.
Use mock-up photography templates to showcase your 3D design and artwork.
