JOB OPPORTUNITIES
Possessing critical/artistic skills and knowledge of production processes through various software programs: this is what tomorrow's job market will demand.
The skills that a BigRocker will acquire will therefore be sufficient to enter the job market as a
3D Modeler
Texture Artist
VFX Compositor
3D Animator
Look development Artist
3D Rigger
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
The course lasts 21 weeks: each week (or more than one), you will tackle a different subject, retracing a typical animated film production pipeline.
At the beginning of each week, you will have access to the module's video lessons, each lasting a maximum of one hour, which you can follow at your own pace and in the manner you prefer.
On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., there will be a live session with the teacher to review the exercises you will be doing during the week and to explain any concepts that are unclear to you.
2 weeks
IMAGING
Imaging module dedicated to image creation and manipulation, integrating Photoshop, color theory, digital photography, and artificial intelligence tools. A theoretical/practical course to build creative and artistic foundations.
2 weeks
Blender introduction
Introduction to Blender. We will explore the interface, the various panels, and the basic tools of the software. We will discover how easy and satisfying it is to model hard surfaces after just a few lessons.
2 weeks
Modeling
The modeling phase in Blender continues: this time we will focus on creating characters and organic creatures, discovering UVs and how to prepare a model for the next stages of the pipeline.
2 weeks
Texture & Lighting
Using Substance Painter, we will see how to add color to 3D models by "painting" everything that makes a material realistic. In Blender, we will then discover how to set up an effective lighting setup to obtain our first renders.
2 weeks
Rig
We will learn how to create the bone structure and control elements of a 3D object or character to make it ready for animation.
3 Weeks
Animation & Layout
We will discover how to bring a 3D character to life. From understanding the keys to animation and the main rules of movement, to the latest motion capture systems with artificial intelligence.
1 Week
fashion
We will learn a new software: Clo3D. A powerful and fun program for creating clothing not only for animation but also for advertising and prototyping.
2 weeks
geometry nodes
We leverage the full power of Blender to manage highly effective visual particle systems.
1 Week
Motion Graphics
Let's discover the enormous potential of After Effects and how two-dimensional graphics can be animated for videos and advertisements.
2 weeks
Compositing
Also in After Effects, we will discover the basic techniques for video compositing: from green screen to color correction. Simple tools and techniques for finalizing renders and more.
