If games are more you style then look at the complex 3D cities of some of your favourite games.
In this workshop we will be creating some basic scenes to learn about the modelling process. We will begin modelling a small house with rooms and internal structures and progress to a subway scene and a large city. We will then look at textures and lighting the scene before rendering it as a digital image worthy of your portfolio. If you want to make your own scenes for movies of games with VFX this is the place to begin. Students will also be introduced to stock 3D websites that will help fill out their scenes with Creative Commons content.

Week 8 ~ Alien Worlds 2D x 3D ( 13-17 yrs )
In this fun filled week of Digital Arts we will fuse both 3D and 2D together to learn about how these images can play so well together. After constructing a simple scene in 3d we will render a super high res picture to take into Affinity Photo and Paint up into a finished Artwork. This process is one often used in the video game and animation industry to save time and improve the quality of the concept art. This class is an advanced class and it is require that you have taken 3D either in the summer or in a previous regular program term here at Jr Art Lab.
This class is suitable for intermediate experience level. Students should have an understanding of either digital painting or Blender 3D in order to be able to combine these two mediums.
