Through a series of two consecutive workshops, participants will learn how to create 3D projects utilising Gravity Sketch, an immersive collaborative platform that enables multiple users to create and share ideas in real time utilising virtual reality. Gravity Sketch is used for 3D modelling across multiple industries including architecture, design, arts and entertainment.
Workshop 1: Introduction to Gravity Sketch [Sat 15 Nov]
This introductory session will present an overview of the software, including the different tools and brushes used to model in virtual reality. By the end of the session, participants will have gained a good understanding on how to transform a sketch into a 3D model.
Workshop 2: Sculpting in 3D [Sat 22 Nov]
Through this follow up session, participants will develop a collaborative project in Gravity Sketch. By the end of the session, the group will have built a 3D sculpture based on the concept of the Greek mythological hybrid creatures known as Chimeras.
