Skillshare – Blender 3D for Beginners: Model and Animate a 3D Logo

Hi, my name is Harry and I’m a professional 3d artist with over a decade of experience. I’ve worked most recently as the Studio Director of an award winning architectural visualization studio. What you’re seeing on screen now are examples of my professional work.

On Skillshare, I specialize in clear, easy to follow beginner’s classes. We’ll go through each process, step-by-step, to prevent as much confusion as possible.

In this course, I’ll walk you through the simple and beginner friendly process of animating a 3d logo in Blender.

We’re using Blender for this tutorial, which is an amazing and totally free 3d software. The only barrier to entry is having a computer to run the software on.

Animating 3d logos can be a really powerful skill to know, but it doesn’t have to be complicated. In this class, I’ll walk you through the simple process of recreating a 2d logo inside Blender, as well as adding some simple animation.

In this class you can expect to learn:

Blender Interface and Tools: We’ll learn about many basic tools and interface elements within Blender while building and animating our logo.

Curves: To create our logo, we’ll be using curves and extrusion within Blender.

Lighting: We’ll set up an HDRI lighting system to illuminate our logo.

Shading: Used to apply simple reflective and emissive color materials to our logo.

Animating: We’ll add a little life to our logo by creating a looping animation.

Rendering: Lastly, we’ll render our final animation in Blender so you can share it with your friends and family on social media.

When we’re done you’ll have all the skills you need to create a 3d logo animation of your very own!

I hope you’ll join me on this fun beginner’s journey through Blender by making your very own animated 3d logo!
