3D modelling with CLO
Together with the fast evolving technologies of AR, VR and 5G the need for digital fashion assets is rising. 3D simulation and digital design helps to reduce waste, but also enables access to the Metaverse which holds loads of creative opportunities. This CLO 3D simulation program workshop gives the participant tools for shifting to digital workflow via creating, developing fashion accessories and expanding student’s self-expression opportunities using 3D software. This is an intensive, small group workshop where all students have the opportunity for practical tasks by a leading expert in the field Flavia Bon (https://www.flaviabon.com/about).
Subject is passed when the student attends 80% of the course and finishes all assignments given by the tutor.
- As the course contains small group and individual mentontoring, the course has limitid number of participants. The availability of the seat is confirmed in the first week of October.
- CLO 3D is paid software, the student can use CLO free trial for passing the course in his/her own computer. In case of participating in-site in EKA, EKA’s computer class computers are used.
We hope to meet all students in EKA, Tallinn (in case your school has a possibility to provide Erasmus short term mobility to EKA). It’s also a possibility to participate full days via Zoom.
