Blender – Introduction to 3D (BLR)

Graphics, 3D Graphics

Start building professional 3D work with a hands-on course focused on materials, textures and rendering. You will learn workflows to create photorealistic or stylized results and how to combine technical skills with strong visual design.

Focus on achieving high-quality outputs for images and animations using lighting, optimization and compositing. You'll learn render simplification, scene setup and post-processing techniques to produce visually polished final frames and animated sequences.

THIS TRAINING COURSE WILL HELP YOU:

  • Create realistic and stylized 3D models from scratch
  • Create basic animations to bring models to life
  • Apply textures and layered materials for realistic surfaces
  • Use lighting and shadows to craft atmospheric scenes
  • Render and prepare projects for export and post-processing

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

  • 3D creators wanting to improve materials and rendering
  • Artists working in visualization, animation, and motion graphics
  • Users with Blender basics who want to move to advanced skills
