Getting Started with Blender

Want to learn 3D animation? Have you heard of Blender but have no idea how to get started? Come to this program to learn how to get started using Blender. Registration is required and space is limited. This workshop is geared toward teens and adults.

Blender is a super powerful and free animation suite available for download at https://www.blender.org/ Blender has a wide range of uses including animation, architectural visualization, virtual reality, art, 3d printing, and more. 

In this three-week workshop, you will learn how to 3D model, design, and render in Blender's 3D environment. Each week we'll cover a new skill or concept, and then work on a project to export as a final image in our last session. At the end of these three weeks, you should have some fundamental knowledge to start creating projects on your own. Having access to your own computer at home or using Blender in our Learning Labs is suggested.
