Immerse yourself in the world of 3D modelling for gaming.

Are you ready to bring your very own Avatar to life and learn about the world of 3D design?

 

IED Roma offers a five-day practical and experiment-based summer course designed for 14-18 year olds that combines your artistic flair with technical skills by means of workshop exercises and outdoor activities.

In the workshop, you will get the chance to design and model your very own Avatar, be it real or imaginary, learning the basics of 3D modelling through practical exercises.

You will learn how to integrate your character into a virtual world, simulating the environment of a video game and discovering the potential of your creativity when applied to technology.

Information to decide

The course will take place over 5 consecutive days and will include

·        Introduction to 3D modelling and Character Design;

·        Design and creation of a unique character;

·        Experimentation with integration techniques in virtual environments;

·        Practical application and simulation in a gaming-inspired virtual world.

If you are interested in exploring more creative fields, there is the possibility of combining this course with another one-week course. 

The course is ideal for 14 to 18 year olds who are curious to find out about the world of visual arts and 3D animation.

Perfect both for anyone taking their first steps into the world of 3D modelling and for those who wish to further develop their skills in a creative and professional environment.
