3D Typography with Blender – Design Original Letters (German, Eng sub)

Learn to model 3D letters using different techniques in Blender and play around with contrasting colors, materials, and textures Fascinated by the idea of everyday objects and materials that behave differently than normal, 3D designer and artist Alper Dostal makes them the centerpiece of his work. He likes to take certain elements, like letters, out of their context and use them to model captivating compositions. His unique style is characterized by heavy contrasts, for example, between industry and nature.

In this online course, learn to design original letters that speak volumes. Alper teaches you his secrets to 3D modeling projects, from searching for inspiration to choosing a color palette. Design letters with modular structures in Blender and discover how to create materials, apply harmonious textures and colors, and build a scene to showcase your model.

What will you learn in this online course? Get to know Alper Dostal as he talks through his creative journey to becoming an expert in 3D design. He also shows you the influences that have shaped his style.

Start laying the groundwork for your project by learning where to look for inspiration

Continue with an introduction to Blender and see how to customize settings and optimize your workflow. Learn to model basic shapes and bend them into letters with Curve tools. Alper then demonstrates how to create materials from different textures and incorporate color harmonies into your design.

Now take a step back to focus on the scene and lighting around your letter. Discover how to find the right camera angle and work with multiple light sources before experimenting with their color and intensity to set the perfect tone.

Finally, add effects to your image to give it a more realistic look and adjust the settings for a high-quality render. Once you finish retouching your render in Photoshop, Alper explains the advantages of modular design for your 3D modeling projects.

What is this course’s project?

Who is this online course for? Anyone who wants to learn how to model 3D objects with modular structures and experiment with contrasting colors, textures, and shapes.

Requirements and materials Previous experience with Blender and Adobe Photoshop is recommended, but not essential.
