SketchUp Pro Fundamentals Bundle

The SketchUp Pro Fundamentals Bundle offers training in 3D modeling and rendering, guiding you through every step to become proficient in using SketchUp Pro. With a focus on practical, real-world applications, students master the tools to create detailed models and topography for various design projects.

Master the Basics of SketchUp Pro for 3D Modeling: Learn the core functions of SketchUp Pro by creating a community park, including designing 3D models of picnic tables, a carousel, and other site elements. Gain hands-on experience in navigating the software, working with components, and building your first 3D model from scratch.
Refine Your Skills with SketchUp Pro Techniques: Take your modeling to the next level by learning to use advanced tools like Sandbox for creating 3D topography and Project Geo-Location for realistic site designs. Design a detailed clubhouse for the community park, and explore new workflows and techniques to enhance your models.
Work with 3D Warehouse and SketchUp Camera Tools: Explore the 3D Warehouse to import assets and learn how to effectively use SketchUp’s camera tools to create immersive perspectives and scenes. Add photo textures, edit materials, and animate your designs for dynamic presentations.
Create and Detail Models with Precision: Master the art of creating building interiors, including walls, doors, and windows, and learn how to detail these elements for architectural accuracy. This course will give you the ability to build comprehensive models that are both functional and visually compelling.
