Overview
Course Description
The main objective of this course is to introduce the complex principles of 3D modeling, realistic
texturing, and high-quality rendering using Autodesk 3ds Max in a professional studio setting. It
covers architectural visualization, product design, and 3D animation production, equipping students
with skills applicable across gaming, film, and advertising. Students will learn why 3D expertise is a
critical and financially rewarding component in the modern creative and engineering industries.
Key Highlights:
- 3D fundamentals: modeling principles, viewport navigation & interface mastery
- Polygon modeling techniques: box modeling, edge modeling & topology optimization
- Texturing & materials: UV mapping, procedural textures & V-Ray materials
- Lighting mastery: three-point lighting, HDRI, global illumination & realistic setups
- Rendering engines: V-Ray & Arnold for photorealistic outputs
- Architectural visualization: interior/exterior scenes, walkthroughs & presentations
