WHAT IS THIS WORKSHOP?

This course will cover the basic and advanced techniques needed for visualization of design as a form of video and images structured around an experiment of visualizing
design (architectural, urban, landscape) using modern CAD(Computer Aided Design)software(Rhino, 3ds max, aftereffect, Unity), the class aims to offer students hands-on skills in these aspects:

· 3D modeling, mapping, rendering for image
· animation, effecting for video
· advanced skill (scripting and automation for optimized representation process)
·interactive and immersive Representation for environment and data visualization

During the course, the aim is both to understand the process of design representation in digital media, and to produce a video as a final assignment based on the sample work.
