The Assets Pathway is a nine-week targeted training program designed to equip aspiring 3D artists with the skills and workflows required to create production-ready assets for games, film, and animation. With a focus on hands-on learning, this program helps bridge the gap between classroom training and professional production environments, providing practical experience and industry-standard knowledge.
Program Overview
The Asset Pathway starts with Blender Foundations, where you’ll build a strong understanding of 3D modeling, sculpting and UV unwrapping, creating optimized, high-quality assets from scratch. Then, you’ll advance to Maya Hard Surface Modeling with workflows to build complex structures efficiently. In Substance Painter, you’ll explore the art of texturing, learning how to add depth and realism to your models with this industry standard tool. Next, dive into Low Poly Character Creation, where you’ll design game-ready characters that balance creativity and performance, ideal for interactive projects. Finally, in Marvelous Designer, you’ll explore basic and advanced garment creation workflows You will learn to simulate realistic clothing behavior for a variety of 3D applications.
The Assets Pathway combines a flexible structure with specialized training modules, enabling participants to either complete the full pathway for a comprehensive learning experience or focus on specific modules to address skill gaps.
