I love doing 3D mockups and it has never been this easy with Adobe Dimension!
Adobe Dimension is an amazing 3D software that allows you to create high-quality, photorealistic mockups for your branding projects. Mockups are important in branding projects as it allows us to see a preview of how our designs would look like in real life. This software makes it easy to create these mockups to greatly help you visualize and bring your designs to life.
This introductory class will walk you through the creation of a 3D mockup while discussing the basic features of Adobe Dimension. Prior experience with 3D software is not necessary at all. By the end of this class, you will have the confidence to create your own 3D mockups and start using them to leverage your design careers.
In this course, we will cover:
