Learn the fundamentals of 3D and create models, motion graphics, animations, and more with Blender

What you’ll learn
How to download, install, and set up Blender
Understanding 3D space and basic modeling concepts
Using modifiers like Mirror, Subdivision Surface, and Solidify
Working with the Extrude, Bevel, Loop Cut, and Knife tools
Adding detail and complexity with modifiers like Bevel and Boolean
Adding and editing materials like glass, metal, and liquid
Using lights, cameras, and render settings to make your work shine
Building 3D product mockups including bottles and packaging
Creating a custom 3D character and animating it
Animating objects using keyframes, parenting, and Blender’s timeline tools
Refining motion with the graph editor and animation principles like exaggeration and timing
UV unwrapping and projecting textures onto your models
Build custom procedural shaders using Blender’s node system
Create realistic surface detail using PBR (physically based rendering) materials
Exporting high-quality stills and animations for web, branding, and motion design
Class projects you can personalize and add to your portfolio
Tips, tricks, and workflows used by real-world 3D designers

Requirements
Download Blender for free, for either PC or Mac
Blender runs on most modern computers, but you’ll need at least 8 GB of memory and a reasonably fast processor. More memory, a stronger graphics card, and a faster hard drive will all help with better performance.
A mouse is recommended for best control, but Robin covers trackpad-friendly workflows too

Description
Taught by 3D artist, animator, and designer Robin Ruud, Blender 3D Design Essentials is your gateway into the free software behind everything from Hollywood blockbusters to bold brand visuals. Whether you’re a graphic designer, aspiring motion artist, or video game enthusiast, adding Blender to your toolkit will open up new possibilities for your creativity and career!If you’ve ever opened Blender, felt overwhelmed, and closed it just as fast, you’re not alone. But this course is designed to change that. Robin takes a hands-on, designer-focused approach, guiding you step-by-step through projects that build real skills through practice and problem solving. From product mockups and packaging design to custom characters and animation, you’ll gain tools you can plug into your existing workflow right away.Together with Robin, you’ll learn how to:Confidently navigate Blender’s interfaceModel clean, professional 3D objectsApply realistic materials like glass, metal, and liquidLight, frame, and render your scenesCreate branded mockup and packagingDesign and animate your own 3D characterAdding 3D to your skillset unlocks fresh possibilities for storytelling, prototyping, brand identity, and motion graphics. The secret? Once you’ve mastered a handful of essential tools and techniques, creating work that looks complex becomes surprisingly simple. Filtered through Robin’s perspective as a visual designer, this course zeroes in on just those core tools, making learning approachable and fun.By the end, you’ll have the skills and confidence to bring your ideas to life in 3D, and a collection of portfolio-ready pieces to prove it.
