LEARN 3DS MAX FROM INDUSTRY EXPERTS

During this first two-hour class, you will learn the fundamentals of 3D workflow and be familiarised with the 3ds Max interface. You will start by learning about preferences, project configuration, units, Maxstart files, navigation tools and visual styles. The class will then progress onto working with viewports, modelling techniques, manipulation tools, snaps, and finally the parametric geometries and shapes.

Now that you are familiar with the basics of 3ds Max, you will learn how to work with basic geometry modifiers such as Bend, Twist, Taper, FFD, Noise, Lattice and Symmetry. You will also learn how to create parametric models during this session.

This session will focus on some of the most important and useful modelling techniques in 3ds Max. You will learn how to create high and low poly models and edit poly modifiers. You will also learn modelling 2D shapes and the invaluable edge copying technique.

Now that you are confident with modelling in 3ds Max, next you will learn how to get your models ready for texturing. This course will focus on topics such as scaling your model (reset Xform), Xview, texturing workflow, using material templates including arch & design and Autodesk materials. You will also learn how to apply a material to a model by using UVW maps and the unwrap UVW method.
