This class shares practical expertise on enhancing visual quality through lighting and atmosphere, key elements that define the overall polish of an artwork. Learn everything from model placement and composition design to techniques for controlling visual information and guiding the viewer’s gaze.
First, learn practical modeling techniques centered on Japanese motifs such as torii gates and lanterns. Rather than simply explaining functions, you will understand the creative reasoning behind each decision and why specific approaches are used.
Next, combine your models to design compositions and lighting that highlight the main motif. You will learn how to control overall balance and information density through camera settings and the placement of natural elements.
Finally, use Photoshop to add subtle atmospheric effects that are difficult to achieve with 3D alone. By applying masking and brush-based retouching, you will refine your work and bring it to a higher level of completion.
Move beyond basic techniques and explore the full process of visual composition that engages and captivates viewers, available exclusively at Coloso.

Class Highlights
Efficient Modeling and Texture Rendering Based on Materials
Learn the essentials of 3DCG modeling and material adjustment while exploring the key factors to consider throughout the production process. Gain a deeper understanding of the decision-making behind each step, then apply it hands on to create original work from scratch. Develop both modeling skills and expressive techniques that can be immediately applied to a wide range of projects.
Tips and Tricks to Create Scenes Worth Viewing
An appealing scene isn’t created by only building models. It is the combination of various elements, such as the placement and number of models, camera settings, and lighting, that brings a scene to life. Join this class to discover the techniques and mindset needed to create scenes that are truly worth viewing.
Retouching Tips to Enhance the Quality of Your Work
While you can create compelling work using only Blender, using a program specialized in image editing alongside it allows you to add even more effective and nuanced details. The goal is to use Photoshop to add lighting effects and set the mood, thereby further elevating the quality of your work.
