APPROACH
Theoretical/project based

This project lab takes 3D modelling to an intermediate level, thanks to the acquisition of polygonal modelling techniques for complete environments, scene objects and humanoid/animal characters. The course also teaches the advanced functions of the Maya software through targeted shots and practical training.

The programme consists of one single module, which grants 8 credits.

Successful students will be able to:

• Identify the main techniques of 3D modelling

• Carry out a critical analysis of existing projects

• Design and implement characters and three dimensional scenes based on the project concept

• Mechanical and organic modelling

• 2D and 3D texturing

• Basic rigging

This is a theoretical/project based course.

The students will take part in the following activities, which may vary depending on the development of different projects:

• Classroom lectures

• Use of tutorials, videos or other media tools

• Exercises and revisions

• Workshops

• Individual or group projects

• Individual or group study and research

Assessment tools may include:

• Completion of a project

• Oral exam

Further details about the exams will be provided by the professors.

Books and resources might be requested or suggested by the professors.
