The ability to create and use your own custom materials in will take your presentations to an entirely new level. If you can tell a rendering was created in Revit simply because you recognize the brick material this class is for you! Learn how to find, create, and manage your own custom material libraries in Autodesk Revit.

Sheet metal design is a core capability of , with support for the entire design-through-fabrication process. Leveraging Synchronous Technology, sheet metal designers can develop models faster using fewer commands, make changes in real-time, edit supplier data, and take designs to production with flat patterns and automatic drawings. Solid Edge delivers the most productive sheet metal CAD package available.

This webinar will cover the powerful functions and tools that Vectorworks 2014 offers designers as they take an idea from the conceptual to the final stage of execution. Using , we will discover how to light an environment in 3D space. We will explore labeling, scheduling, and organizational features used to create a lighting plot.

The beta version of V-Ray 3.0 for Maya has been met with enthusiastic reviews and feedback by CG artists worldwide. Based on the upgraded 3.0 core, it features a new Progressive Rendering Engine, support for several open source technologies, and up to 5x faster ray tracing and rendering performance. Master Trainer Simeon Balabanov will provide an in-depth look at the newest features and improvements - V-Ray 3.0’s powerful new path-tracing engine (Progressive Image Sampler), the faster hair rendering, improved Ray-Traced Subsurface Scattering (SSS), and the new VRaySkinMtl with built-in SSS and layered reflections. Learn more about V-Ray 3.0’s added support for common open source formats like OpenSuddiv, Alembic 1.5, Deep Images and OpenEXR 2.0, OpenColorIO, and the expected introduction of programmable shaders with Open Shading Language [OSL].

This webinar will walk you through improved UI, which has been designed to make users’ lives easier! Learn how to: (1) create your own scene assets, (2) customize the interface to your, (3) needs/preferences, (4) speed up your workflow using the new pre-sets.

The Autodesk is specifically designed to enhance model development in Rhino 5 by introducing subdivision surface modeling to enhance its capabilities for organic modeling. This webinar will explain the benefits and nuances of T-Splines/subd surface modeling, and how tag team strategies between Rhino 5 and T-Splines can be used for exquisite form development and easily initiated changes.

In this intermediate-level webinar will demonstrate how to model a full face motorcycle helmet with , using solid and surface modeling techniques. The webinar will also show participants how to obtain highly professional rendering results using V-Ray 2.0 to detail industrial objects with a multi-colored finish.
