  • I recently sat the Autodesk 3ds Max – Zero To HERO, 5 days course with Academy Class. In my view it was a tough course but tough subject. The trainer was personable (funny and helpful) and very knowledgeable on the subject.The training materials were excellent, a good training quality overall. I would highly recommend this course to anyone willing to get trained in a professional way. Definetely a good value for money.

About this course

You’ll learn how to work in a production environment, understand the mechanics of 3ds Max, be able to create 3D models using a variety of techniques, work with materials to texture your models, understand how to light a scene, be able to create animations, stage a scene, understand cinematography and learn how to create output for use in post production.

This is for people who want to create 3D graphics for print or animation. Target customers are architectural practices, visualisation studios, production houses, advertising agencies or other such departments that work in large organisations.

Attendees require only a very general knowledge of 3D and its concepts although a basic understanding of computer hardware and software is essential. Knowledge of other digital media packages is an advantage but not a necessity.

What I would highlight: I went on a kick off i.e from lowest to highest instructional class for autodesk 3DS max. I observed the course to be fantastic and the educator thought about all aspects of the product that he was instructing. The middle and offices were spotless and cutting edge and the area right inverse waterloo station implied it was anything but difficult to get to. With everything taken into account an incredible ordeal and I will definately being taking a gander at doing another course there sooner rather than later.
What could be improved: Nothing.
