Luxology has made available MP3 PLAYER: RAPID VISUALIZATION AND PROTOTYPING, a new video album that demonstrates how modo 302's toolset can be used to complement and enhance the product design process.
Created by Luxology's Training Division Director, Andy Brown, this training series offers step-by-step instruction on rapidly giving form to design concepts using Subdivision surfaces in modo. The video album also covers the process of preparing a model for 3-D printing and creation of final presentation images.
Product visualization and design requires continuous revision and Brown's latest tutorial series demonstrates how modo can be used effectively at the ideation phase of the design process. With a portable MP3 player as the subject matter, this three-part video series covers the following topics: Sketching in 3-D, Subdivision Surface Modeling for Rapid Prototyping, and Adding Colors and Context. A physical prototype of the MP3 player was produced using a Z Corp 3-D printer during the development of this video album.
Luxology's Training Division was formed a year ago in an effort to answer the growing demand for high-quality learning materials for both novice and experienced 3-D modo artists. Since its formation, there has been a continual flow of professional quality training materials on a variety of real-world topics. A typical video album from Luxology is priced at $25 and provides approximately 90 minutes of instruction and sample content. Each video is downloadable for immediate viewing and is formatted for playback on Mac and PC systems.
The MP3 PLAYER: RAPID VISUALIZATION AND PROTOTYPING album is comprised of three video tutorials totaling 104 minutes of instruction. They are sold for $25 each and are delivered online in 1280 x 720 QuickTime format. For more information or to purchase, visit http://www.luxology.com/store/training_series12.aspx.
