International Architectural Rendering & Design School

As a VizAcademy student, you get completely Free access to 3ds Max and all Autodesk products such as Revit, Autocad and many others

What we do

The VizAcademy is one of the world’s foremost digital architectural rendering and design schools. Our students can gain advanced interior and exterior rendering skills. They can use these skills to create best-of-breed portfolios and get architecture and design rendering work.

How we do it

Our sought-after course last seven weeks. No previous experience of rendering or design is necessary. In fact most of our students go from zero to rendering and design hero. And they complete the courses with world class levels of architectural rendering and photorealistic expertise.

Already have experience of rendering? No problem. We’ll set the bar higher to accommodate your skill level.

All VizAcademy tuition is done online. Enrol, and in less than two months you will learn how to create world-class photorealistic visualisations. Many other students have done exactly that.

All VizAcademy architectural rendering and design tuition is done online.
We meet 3x / week on webinars on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 7 pm London time. These meetings can be a lot of fun. You get to meet a lot of new people virtually!
You're not fluent in English? No worries! VizAcademy students are diverse. Many are not natural English speakers. It doesn’t matter. We make sure everyone can understand.
During these meetings, we talk about your current homework, answer your questions, and give tips on how to improve the quality of your work. We record each meeting, so if you can’t attend a meeting, you won’t fall behind.
You'll get tutorial files showcasing 3ds Max techniques we've refined for over 13 years. Each technique is broken down into clear, easy-to-follow steps, and the files are yours to keep
After completing an exercise, you share the results of the exercise with us. At the next YouTube meeting, we make corrections to your work for sharing and discussion. This is your opportunity to shine among your peers!
Our certified tutors are always online during the day to help you immediately.
Each student receives 3D models and textures from the best graphics pages. We also teach you how to save money when procuring 3D graphics essentials yourself.
We teach you how to render in the cloud (renderfarm) on a budget. You can finish a whole project with three - seven renderings in a single night!
We run a 24/7 group chat. Group learning through chat makes work easier, and prepares you for future pro teamwork.
During the course, you’ll prepare at least two projects: an interior and an exterior. We’ll show you how to make photorealistic visualizations quickly. You’ll be working as a group, so you can observe the progress of others, and learn much faster. You might work on, say, the kitchen, while your colleague is designing the living room. In the end, you both know how to render both a kitchen and a living room.
Using the above methods, our students achieve great results in seven weeks.

Skills that you will master during our course:

BASIC and ADVANCED MODELING – Learn cutting-edge modelling techniques. This will enable you to model interiors and exteriors (and utility items) skilfully.
INTERIOR LIGHTING CREATION – This is absolutely essential to good visualisations.
INTERIOR MATERIAL CREATION – Learn how to create the right materials, adapted to unique types of lighting. Get access to a database of the best textures on the market.
INTERIOR POSTPRODUCTION – VizAcademy rendering does not require a large amount of post-production: with us, your work will require only minor ‘beauty’ treatments; but we will teach you how to get the best out of visualization.
EXTERIOR MODELING – You will learn how to create architectural solids prepared for photorealistic rendering, parametric elevations, and the rapid creation of solids for conceptual purposes. Master the principles of proper framing and camera settings.
EXTERIOR LIGHT and MATERIAL CREATION – You will learn exterior lighting methods that can create phenomenal results quickly.
EXTERIOR POSTPRODUCTION – You will learn how to post-produce elegant and well-balanced exterior renders.

Your coursework with us will result in a portfolio of between two and seven photorealistic visualisations. This will create a solid basis for your career in rendering and design.

We have already trained well over 1000 students from scratch! You can find their work on our Instagram and Facebook walls. Check them out. You can do this, too!

Study group duration: seven weeks.
