About the Verified Curriculum
Taught by Viktor Novak →What Jordan Taylor Mastered in This Track
Go from zero 3D experience to modeling clean quad topology, sculpting organic assets, building PBR shader nodes, and rendering cinematic scenes in Blender.
Verified Competencies & Project Outcomes
- Navigate Blender's 3D Viewport with speed and precision using G/R/S axis locks, the 3D Cursor, Origin Points, and applied object transforms (Ctrl+A)
- Model hard-surface and organic 3D assets using Edit Mode tools (Extrude, Inset, Loop Cut, Bevel) and clean 4-sided quad topology
- Build non-destructive modeling pipelines by stacking Mirror, Subdivision Surface, Solidify, Bevel, Array, and Boolean modifiers in the correct evaluation order
- Unwrap distortion-free UV maps with strategic seams and bake high-poly sculpted details into tangent-space Normal and Ambient Occlusion maps
- Create photorealistic PBR materials and procedural textures in the Shader Editor using Principled BSDF, Noise/Voronoi generators, ColorRamps, and Non-Color Normal maps
- Light, animate, and render portfolio-ready 3D scenes using 3-point studio lighting, HDRIs, camera Depth of Field, AgX color management, Geometry Nodes, and Cycles path tracing
