Course Description

The Diploma in 3D Modeling to Rendering (Industry Software + 2 Specializations) is a comprehensive, long-term professional program designed to train students across the entire 3D production pipeline used in games, animation, VFX, product visualization, architecture, and immersive media industries.

This 11–12 month diploma provides in-depth, hands-on training using multiple industry-standard software platforms, including Blender, Autodesk Maya, Autodesk 3ds Max, Substance Painter, Houdini, V-Ray, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe Premiere Pro. Students develop a strong cross-software foundation, enabling them to adapt to real-world studio pipelines rather than being locked into a single tool.

After completing the core 3D foundation modules, students choose any two specializations from professionally structured tracks such as:

• Modeling + Texturing
• Lighting + Rendering
• Rigging + Animation

Key skills you will gain

By the end of the diploma, students will be able to:

• Understand and execute the complete 3D production pipeline from modeling to final render
• Create high-quality 3D assets using multiple industry-standard software packages
• Apply correct topology, UV mapping, PBR texturing, lighting, and rendering techniques
• Work confidently across Blender, Maya, and 3ds Max pipelines
• Develop optimized assets suitable for real-time (games) and offline (film/visualization) rendering
• Specialize deeply in two chosen production domains
• Produce a professional portfolio/showreel aligned with studio hiring standards
• Adapt to studio workflows, naming conventions, and pipeline expectations
