3D Modeling & Animation
Video effect by: Alec R, '21
Course Info
Using the open source 3D modeling software, Blender, students have an opportunity to create
cutting-edge technology projects. This course is largely self-directed, giving students the
freedom to design projects based on their own areas of interest and to decide what technologies
to use. Working with peers, students will complete projects, research and design their own
virtual programs, and create 2D and 3D imaging that is then transferred into stereoscopic displays
to create immersive virtual environments. Students may be asked to make presentations of their work.
The course may be repeated.
