COURSE OVERVIEW
In this 6-week course, students learn techniques tailored to aid in the design and presentation of client projects. The first portion of class will be dedicated to learning SketchUp’s 3D modeling techniques. Students learn shortcuts, various ways to use basic tools, and techniques that will make 3D modeling much more efficient. Next, students create 2D and 3D plans and elevations, textures, and get practice with advanced built-in rendering techniques to create photo-realistic images for professional projects and presentations.
