3D I: Digital 3D Sculpting.

Catalog description

Semester course; 1 lecture and 3 studio hours (delivered online, face-to-face or hybrid). 3 credits. Enrollment is restricted to majors and minors in the Department of Communication Arts. The course introduces students with strong drawing and design backgrounds to the world of 3D through digital sculpting, modeling and visual storytelling. Students will work in both ZBrush and Maya to develop skills in organic and hard surface modeling, UV unwrapping, stylized texturing and lighting for illustration. The final project culminates in the creation of a 3D-rendered sequence that supports a narrative panel or comic-style page.
