Blender Career Starter: From Zero To Studio-Ready

Modern Blender 4.5 Workflows for Fast, Studio-Ready Resu

What you'll learn

Learn the Blender 4.5 interface and confidently navigate in 3D space

Model 3D objects using popular techniques: low poly, high poly, and curves

Create materials, unwrap UVs, texture with brushes, and build your own asset library

Set up lighting and scenes for artistic, realistic, or stylized rendering

Use sculpting tools and AI-assisted workflows to create complex shapes efficiently

Animate objects, cameras, and characters using keyframes and the graph editor

Complete the full 3D production pipeline — from modeling to the final animation shot, with AI for speed

Requirements

All you need is a computer. No prior experience required — you’ll learn everything step by step, even if it’s your first time opening Blender.

Description

Master Blender 4.5 with a unique combination of classical training and cutting-edge AI tools. This course is designed for beginners who want to reach a professional level quickly—without endless theory or long, unfocused lectures. Each lesson is short, practical, and results-driven, so you immediately apply what you learn.We begin with the fundamentals: the Blender interface, navigation, and essential tools. From there, you will move into modeling techniques including low-poly, high-poly, and working with curves. You will also learn to create PBR and procedural materials, build your own reusable material library, perform UV unwrapping, and bake textures. Dedicated modules cover lighting and rendering in Cycles, ensuring your scenes look clean, artistic, and professional.Alongside traditional 3D skills, you will integrate AI-powered tools to speed up and enhance your workflow. You’ll discover how AI can help generate 3D models, create quick concepts, and automate routine tasks—saving you time while keeping a solid foundation in classic techniques.The course also introduces animation fundamentals, from simple exercises to bringing characters to life with Mixamo and AI-assisted methods.By the end, you will have built a mini-portfolio of projects—a realistic watch, a stylized house, and a short animated character scene. Most importantly, you will gain the confidence and modern skills to apply Blender effectively in real-world production.
