Rhino 3D Modeling - Beginner to Advance Transition Program

The Course contains key Basics Beginner Course + 3  instructional Intermediate step-by-step design example case studies.

The course is the result of many years of experience in teaching design students at various Art Universities. During my research, it turned out that you don't need a lot of educational material to start modeling your own concepts. The best way to learn 3D modeling is to use the program's tools as soon as possible and perform practical exercises on real design examples.

This is how this course is designed so that you can quickly and effectively move to the stage of 3D modeling your own design concepts.

The Key Basics Essentials Course is the first module containing 3 STEPS second module contains the last STEP 4, where you will train and solidify your knowledge.

STEP 1. - You will learn all 3D modeling rules at this stage. It tackles everything you need to know about the Rhinoceros 3D  principles of 3D Modeling, such as interface, viewports, icons functionality, commands launching, mouse skills, etc., so the 3D workspace never limits you.

STEP 2 - You will learn the absolutely crucial tools to start interacting with the Rhino 3D at this stage. You will learn how to process tool commands in the prompted bar and learn about tools for creating 2D NURBS curves. I will introduce you to the tools for 3D surfaces and tell you how to create airtight solids from them that you can immediately print on a 3D printer. You will learn tools for transformation, scaling, and copying. You will become friends with the fidget GUMBAL that facilitates the work of a 3D modeler.

STEP 3 - At this stage, I will show you how to use the tools and do it according to the correct methods. In just an hour, you'll be able to operate Rhino 3D, communicate with it, and create some pretty interesting shapes.

These 3 steps will take about 2 hours.

The PDF COURSE BOOK attached to the course includes fundamental and easily understandable information. Printable PDF educational material supports the course by emphasizing understanding theoretical issues on 3D Modelling principles like NURBS (non-uniform rational B-splines) curves and surfaces as well as practical issues on using Rhinoceros 3D to construct and design free-form models. The COURSE BOOK lets you grasp the top-down critical principle method in creating a holistic design and the bottom-up construction process in making the curves, the surfaces, and the 3D model.

STEP 4 - You will now be able to use the Rhino 3D by yourself- This is a very important stage. I recommend doing this step shortly after the previous ones. At this stage, I will guide you through 3 training sessions based on real design examples. They will enrich your knowledge with the competencies needed in the 3D design industry: Conceptualization, Creativity, and Problem-solving.

EXAMPLE 1 - Concept Car Training - 75 min

EXAMPLE 2 - Product Design - 50 min

EXAMPLE 3 - Creating patterned shapes - 50 min

Description

EXAMPLE 1 - Concept Car Training - 75 min

Conceptualizing - Once you have mastered the program’s essential tools and 3D modeling principles, you can build practically anything you want piece by piece. This step solidifies everything you have learned during steps 1,2, and 3 of the course. You will practice working with curves, surfaces, and solids in Concept Car training. You will also practice 2D drawing contours and shapes. I will introduce to you many surfacing methods and the creation and editing of solids. You will get to know a lot of tips and tricks as well as many functional commands and tools. Finishing this training will help you quickly transition to modeling your own 3D concepts in Rhinoceros 3D. But most of all, you will learn a conceptual approach to 3D design and 3D modeling.

EXAMPLE 2 - Product Design - 50 min

Creativity - In this practical exercise, you will learn how to creatively design different versions of your ideas to show them at business meetings as a different product version for your client or just experiment with the shape. The training is related to product design, where you experiment with shapes without paying attention to the details. You will learn how to use Rhino3D  as a sketchbook to model your ideas quickly.

EXAMPLE 3 - Creating patterned shapes - 50 min

Problem-solving - In almost an hour of tutorial divided into parts, you will learn how to quickly and efficiently model in Rhinoceros 3D a complex-looking pattern that will shape the design of the Teapot and Cups. During the lesson, you will get to know effective methods of curve creation with the commands "blend curves,” „arc," "control point curve,” or "line" to control the shape you have designed. You will also learn how to easily create NURBS surfaces with commands like " loft, "sweep two rails, "blend surface, "or the" revolve "command. After the tutorial, you will understand the power of using transformation tools such as" polar array, "duplicate, "offset curve, „move,” "rotate.” and many more. At the end of the lesson, I will show you how to use the KEYSHOT Rendering platform to create photorealistic visualizations.
