Course content
This course is designed as a week-by-week follow on to the “ZBrush Level II” course to help you realise and explore your concepts efficiently in 3D. The course is structured over a five week period, with two x 1.5 hour sessions per week.
The first session will be a technique demonstration and the second will be a review session where students can show their work and get feedback and advice on their progress. This is to ensure you have time to develop and practice your knowledge and skills between sessions.
At the end of the course, you will understand ZBrush features as yet unexplored in the first “ZBrush Level II” course as well as general approaches and workflows to take when creating artwork.
We will also cover cloth and clothing creation and many of the new features available in ZBrush 2021. ZBrush is an industry standard application commonly used in animation, VR, Film/TV, and for sculptural practices.
