1- Virtual Reality Foundations

Section 1 - 6

Virtual reality has been in existence for a while, but has many new uses in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC), manufacturing, and dozens of other industries, allowing for innovative ways to visualize and collaborate. New tools including 3D scanning, drones, and photogrammetry, along with access to CAD data, have opened the door to VR in the enterprise space. Tools for real-time visualization have also become easier to use and less expensive. With these advances, it's possible for almost anyone to leverage VR technology to create innovative narratives for seeing, selling, and communicating information. Join 3D artist Craig Barr for an overview of virtual reality: what it is, where it's used, and what's in store for the future of VR. Plus, learn how the VR content creation process works and what you need to know to get started in this exciting (and expanding) field.

2- Unreal Essential Training

Section 7 - 16

Unreal isn’t just for gaming anymore. Industries such as automotive design, architecture, healthcare, and education are embracing the real-time development tools for creating engaging and interactive visuals. Unreal Engine can power it all. In this course, Simon Manning teaches the essential skills you need to build immersive user experiences of all kinds with Unreal Engine 4, including lighting, effects, and visual scripting. He covers creating your first project, building a base landscape, blocking out levels, and importing assets for use in the design. Want to find out how to craft a unique look? Learn about working with materials, post-processing effects, and particle systems in Unreal. Plus, find out how to optimize the performance for your projects and package projects for distribution.
