3D Art Workshop/Course with Thomas Fossgard at Pragiedruliai
In the workshops, we ask you: What do you wish was in Panevezys? It could be a physical object, like a car, a building, the ocean, or something more metaphysical, like love or freedom. We then proceed to mix photography with 3D art to create representations of your idea, finishing with an exhibition of our works at Pragiedruliai.
High intensity Blender course - 3D-Art workshop using the free 3D software Blender, starting from foundations of 3D art. At the finish you should feel confident to learn further projects in 3D art on your own.
Professional Art Workflow - From idea, formulation, gathering references, taking photographs, to 3D art creation to compositing.
Structure
Each workshop will be structured around a short lecture about a new topic in 3D modeling related fields, followed by a supervised and mentored work-period where you will get help when stuck.
