With the development of digital technology, you can see 3D displays anywhere on the Internet. When you open a shopping site, the product that looks like a photo may not be real, but a 3D model. At work you may also find that your leaders are no longer satisfied with communicating through 2D sketches, but want to communicate ideas through 3D models. The future will depend more on 3D technology, for example, the metaverse can not be built without 3D technology. In the following, Fox Renderfarm, a leading cloud rendering service provider and render farm, will show you some of the benefits of learning 3D modeling. What are the Benefits of Learning 3D Modeling? 1. No Degree ThresholdLearning 3D modeling does not require a degree. Not having a degree does not affect your ability to learn 3D modeling, much less learn it well. Although some people are finished learning about 3D modeling knowledge during college, 3D modeling software is not purely knowledge-based software, but more application-based software. To learn 3D modeling well requires you to understand the sense of three-dimensional space. Although in the 3D modeling learning stage, you can refer to tutorials, or copy some 3D modeling, but regardless of your education, without a good understanding of three-dimensional space, even a very small detail, often need you several hours to solve the problem. 2. Increase Work EfficiencyIf you are already a designer, learning 3D modeling will allow you to create designs that showcase the benefits of your product even more. Beautiful design drawings will naturally attract more users' eyes, bring more benefits to the company, thus your leaders and colleagues will be impressed by you. At the same time, through 3D models, you can better communicate your ideas with others, which will make your workflow more efficient. 3. More Job OpportunitiesMany industries are now looking for 3D modelers, such as the booming gaming industry and the animation industry. All these industries allow you freely to create things, and once you create a popular 3D character, you will become more famous in the industry. In addition, besides your daily work, you can also work part-time and sell your own 3D models to increase income for yourself.!What are the Benefits of Learning 3D modeling 1 Where to Start Learning 3D Mmodeling?If you're a beginner and want to learn 3D modeling, you need to find a 3D software that is suitable for you to start with first. As long as you master one software, then it's not so hard for you to learn other software later. What 3D software should you choose to learn? There are too many software to choose from, such as 3ds Max, Maya, Houdini, Blender and so on. Here is an article about 9 recommended 3D modeling software, you can take a look and then choose a favorite one. Most of the software is paid, but there is also free software, it all depends on your choice. For the main knowledge, you can find online resources for self-study or attend an online/offline course.It is better that you can find a role model, such as a good 3D animator or modeler, to learn everything he does. In this way, you can have the motivation to keep going. SummaryLearning 3D modeling will not only give you an additional new skill, but you will also discover more of your creativity and talent as you learn. After the 3D modeling phase, you will encounter more challenges like rendering. Fox Renderfarm, as a powerful render farm, can give you a safe and reliable cloud rendering service to help you reduce the time of model rendering. Anyway, wish you become a good 3D modeler!
