Learn to design professional jewelry pieces with Rhino 3D, starting from sketches to 3D printable models.
Duration: 24 hours
Teaching Methodology: Hands on
Course Schedule: Schedule
Fees: $450
Course Mode: Blended - Face-to-face or online via Zoom
COURSE OBJECTIVE
This course is for anyone who wants to learn jewelry and 3D modeling. You do not need previous experience in Jewelry.
This course is all about making jewelry. We'll start with learning how to sketch designs by hand and on a computer. Then, we'll talk about how jewelry is made and what things to keep in mind when making prototypes and final pieces.
We'll also cover some basics about different kinds of jewelry and how to make rings step by step. We'll start with simple designs and work our way up to adding gems.
By the end of the course, you'll have a good grasp of how to design and make jewelry, and you'll have learned some cool new techniques and tools along the way.
AUDIENCE
This course is for people who want to design jewelry using Rhino.
