ANIM 2750: Digital 3D Modeling

3 Credit Hours

Prerequisite: ANIM 2700
Working with industrial 3D modeling software, this course introduces 3D model design. Students will learn how to utilize modeling techniques and applications and gain a basic understanding of 3D modeling to design organized virtual models. This course applies beginning modeling principles, design processes, and production techniques. The course’s primary focus is on 3D model design. The student will be expected to be able to effectively apply these techniques to create portfolio-quality, industry-level, student-directed projects.
