New course - Architectural Visualisation for Professionals

AIE's Melbourne campus is pleased to announce a new part-time online Architectural Visualisation for Professionals course in 2008.

The new course introduces the fundamental concepts of 3D, from modelling to production, for use in architecture.

Written in conjunction with experienced architectural visualisation practitioners, and using industry standard software, the course covers the practical tools necessary to create 3D visualisations, with a special emphasis on industry production techniques for visualisation. Students will be guided online through the key skills necessary to create architectural visualisations in 3D, covering the following areas:

  • Introduction to 3ds Max 2008/Autodesk VIZ
  • 3D modelling for contemporary building technology
  • CAD and Photoshop for visualisation
  • Architectural materials
  • Exterior and landscape elements
  • Kitchens, bathrooms and furniture
  • Photo-realistic rendering
  • Camera flythroughs
  • Professional practice in the visualisation industry

On completion of the course, participants will have an understanding of modelling, texturing, animating and rendering in 3D, and the application of those skills in architectural visualisation.

This online (flexible delivery) course, which will be available from April 2008, will require around three hours of study per week with a total nominal duration of 120-150 hours to complete the program.

Further course details will be available on the AIE website in early January.
