Learn how to model animals and creatures through digital sculpting with this comprehensive online curriculum”

The multiple applications that digital sculpture currently has, make three-dimensional modeling gain importance as a niche market. As interest in virtual representations of shapes, objects and figures grows, so does the demand for professionals versed in the field. Therefore, this Postgraduate Certificate in Digital Sculpture of Animals and Creatures, meets the knowledge and notions necessary for the graduate student to become an expert modeler in this area. 

The study plan begins by delving into the most introductory and theoretical contents, such as the study of animal anatomy, to continue delving into imaginary animals and fantastic creatures. It also dwells on the study of the masses and materials involved in the elaboration of these figures, on the textures and realistic renderings of animals and humans. 

The objective of this training is that students learn about human and animal anatomy to apply it to modeling, texturing, lighting and rendering processes of animals and creatures, as well as the mastery of various organic modeling systems to ensure the best results.  

This Postgraduate certificate in Digital Sculpture of Animals and Creatures is designed in a completely online format, to make it easier to reconcile learning with other professional and personal projects. With a teaching system based on a relearning and learning by doing  methodology, the aim is for the student to achieve an autonomous and progressive acquisition of knowledge.
