About the 3D Scanning Masterclass
The 3D Scanning Masterclass by Jeffrey Ian Wilson is an in-depth guide to the practical applications and technical aspects of 3D scanning, particularly focusing on its use in games and visual effects. This masterclass covers various methods, technologies, and software used in 3D scanning, providing a comprehensive understanding for both beginners and advanced users. The masterclass is structured into several modules, each focusing on a specific aspect of 3D scanning. Each module contains video lectures, practical exercises, and detailed reading materials, ensuring a thorough understanding of the topics. Interactive sessions and Q&A forums are also included to provide additional support and enhance the learning experience. Once you have purchased the masterclass, you will be eligible for all future updates at no additional charge.
If you would like to track development of the masterclass, we are maintaining a Trello board and join the Masterclass Discord Server. We also have a Facebook Group which is now online.
In recent years, the advancements in 3D scanning technology have revolutionized the fields of game development and visual effects, enabling creators to bring unprecedented levels of detail and realism to their work. This masterclass is born out of a passion for this technology and a desire to share its potential with a broader audience. Drawing on extensive experience and expertise, we have curated a curriculum that covers every aspect of 3D scanning, from the fundamental principles to the latest innovations.
Throughout this course, we will explore the use of industry-standard hardware such as the Navvis VLX3, Navvis MLX, Leica Geosystems BLK360g2, DJI Mavic3 Enterprise, and Sony A7r3 DSLR, alongside powerful software tools like Agisoft Metashape Pro, Epic Games Reality Capture, and Blender. Each module is designed to provide a deep understanding of the specific techniques and tools, supported by practical applications and real-world examples.
The future of digital content creation lies in the seamless integration of real and virtual worlds. By the end of this masterclass, you will not only have the technical proficiency to execute complex scans but also the creative insight to apply these techniques in innovative and impactful ways.
