You would like to get started with the free 3D program Blender, but feel overwhelmed by the interface of the program? Maybe you have already done a few tutorials, but somehow you are missing a basic course to understand all these buttons as a beginner?
Then this is the right course for you. Because this is all about learning the absolute basics so you have the robust knowledge from which to move forward in all sorts of 3D directions.
Who is this course for?
For anyone who would like to get started in the world of 3D design, for any purpose! Every beginner is welcome. Blender is open source and free and one of the most awesome programs ever (in my opinion ;)
