In this introductory course, students will develop a concept, then plan and execute a CG-asset production. This could be assets such as simple vehicles, buildings and props. Conceptual or more observational.
The course starts with foundational training in 3d modeling, with emphasis on maintaining technically correct models. Students develop abilities to spot and repair errors. This is followed by an introduction to UV-mapping, and the creation of efficient UV-layouts. The assets will be textured using various image-maps to control the final look of a physically based material.
Finally, the assets are presented in a turntable render.
