Experience with Cinema 4D is required for this course.

At the end of the course, you will have mastered advanced 3D visualization techniques with Cinema 4D. You will be able to use the user interface with confidence, set up layouts and work efficiently in the editor. You will be able to create and transform objects and design both organic and technical models with polygon modeling. You will also understand the material system, apply textures correctly and implement lighting design and rendering independently. Finally, you will master basic camera techniques and compositions and apply animation and rigging to create moving scenes and characters.

Media designers, graphic designers, web designers, communication designers, textile designers, people with a degree in (interior) architecture as well as specialists from artistic professions or people who are responsible for the conception, design and practical implementation of digital and print media and want to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills.

3D visualization is used in the fields of media design, architecture, design, engineering, film, computer game development, science and nature. With the appropriate know-how, self-employment is also an interesting prospect.

Your meaningful certificate provides a detailed insight into the qualifications you have acquired and improves your career prospects.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.

 

Virtual classroom alfaview®

Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face lessons via video technology.

 

The courses at alfatraining are funded by Agentur für Arbeit and are certified in accordance with the AZAV approval regulation. When submitting a Bildungsgutscheinor Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein, the entire course costs are usually covered by your funding body.
Funding is also possible via Europäischen Sozialfonds (ESF), Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV) or regional funding programs. As a regular soldier, you have the option of attending further training courses via Berufsförderungsdienst (BFD). Companies can also have their employees qualified via funding from Agentur für Arbeit (Qualifizierungschancengesetz).
