A lot of fundamental concepts in computer graphics
3D modeling and look development skills using 3ds Max
Using Corona Renderer for rendering interior scenes
Become a job-ready person in 3D visualization industry

This course effectively teaches you how to create beautiful 3D architectural visualization using 3ds Max 2022 and Corona Renderer 7 with just a fraction of the time usually needed. You'll master the knowledge to create stunning 3D renderings and become a fully job-ready person in the industry, in sha Allah.

Architectural visualization is the skill needed in every architecture project or real estate development. Why? Because architects need them to present their designs and real estate developers need them to make the sale. Architectural 3D modeling is also essential in the game industry for crafting game levels. And also important in the VFX industry for creating virtual sets. The demand is very high yet not many people are willing to master it, thinking it's complicated stuff to master. Well not anymore!

This course effectively teaches you how to create beautiful 3D architectural visualization using 3ds Max 2022 and Corona Renderer 7 with just a fraction of the time usually needed. You'll master the knowledge to create stunning 3D renderings and become a fully job-ready person in the industry, or be able to create your own design firm, in sha Allah.

This course is designed for a complete beginner so no prior experience is needed. On the other hand, seasoned 3ds Max users can benefit from this course as we'll be covering advanced topics also in this course. Besides lifetime access to professional-quality lesson videos, you'll also get all of the project's files including 3ds Max files, texture images, and Photoshop composition files.

So, join now! And take your first step in becoming a professional 3D artist or 3D entrepreneur!
