LARP 543 - Media III:Digital Modeling

Institution:

University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Description:

Faculty. This course is the third in the media sequence and is required of all MLA students at the 600 level. Commanding the ability to seamlessly utilize a vast array of virtual applications and design media provides incredible potential to develop, test, produce and communicate spatial ideas with great clarity. This course is geared to fine-tune the fundamental skills and cultivate the necessary tools required to productively work in a 3-dimensional modeling environment, and extract data for communication purposes. Demonstrations of essential tools and techniques will be made at the outset of each session and the corresponding weekly exercises will be presented in class. Exemplary and relevant precedents will be presented and discussed in the lab, along with the content of assigned readings. Most time this semester, however, will be spent rigorously sharpening essential tools and skills through hands-on practice - ultimately, it will become second nature to work in an inter-operable, 3-dimensionally driven environment.
