In this course, we will learn the basics of sketch up and create a 3D model of house right from scratch in details. After complete modeling, we will have a quick lecture on V-Ray and we will render the exterior of that house in V-ray.
#AulaGEO
Lesson 1 – Introduction
In this lesson, we will have a short introduction of software “sketch up” by getting a little know how about this software, its capabilities and over all usage.
Lesson 2 – Hot Keys
In this session, we will learn some hot keys commonly used in sketchup. The purpose of showing these keys in start of course is to make students aware of these keys so that they could use through out the course and learn well.
Lesson 3 – Jump Start
In this session, we will have a quick jump start with sketch up. Starting with very basic tools and techniques that will be used in next sessions necessary to create the 3D model.
Lesson 4 – AutoCAD to Sketch up Conversion
In this session, we will learn how to import .dwg format to sketch up as .dwg is standard format of Autodesk AutoCAD which is one of the most commonly used format for 2D layouts.
Lesson 5 – 2D Layout Infrastructure
In this session, we will learn how to create basic infrastructure of our future 3D model by making a tentative 2D layout.
Lesson 6 – 2D Layout Openings
In this session, we will use previously drawn 2D layout and learn how to create some openings for doors, windows and vents.
Lesson 7 – Grouping
In this session, we will learn the benefits and usage of grouping. We will use previously drawn 2D layout and start creating groups for each section.
Lesson 8 – Wall Group
In this session, we will use the knowledge of Grouping learnt in last session to create a separate group for walls.
Lesson 9 – Group Assembling and Disassembling
In this session, we will learn how to assemble and disassemble groups for ease of access and editing purposes.
Lesson 10 – 3D Layout Openings
In this session, we will use previously drawn 3D layout and learn how to create some openings for doors, windows and vents.
