Vectorworks Level 2 is for students who have a good working knowledge of 2D Vectorworks and would like to take their skills to a higher level in both 2D and 3D
Students will be given the opportunity to refresh their 2D skills and then move on to a comprehensive introduction to 3D including various modelling techniques, rendering and lighting. By the end of the week students will be able to produce professional standard perspectives using textures, image props and lighting and shown how to exploit Sheet Layers to create a highly professional presentation style combining line drawings, visuals (perspectives/isometrics) and scanned images/samples.
AIMS
To teach the various methods of modelling in Vectorworks via a series of demonstrations and exercises. By the end of the course, students will be able to manipulate 3D space, create isometric and perspective views, and be conversant with applying textures and lighting.
