for Corporate Clients with 4-12 students
|
 |
 LEVEL 1 : Class Curriculum + Objectives |
|
• Class is three full days, 21 hours total
• Utilize the features of the Rhino user interface • Customize your modeling environment • Create basic graphic objects—lines, circles, arcs, curves, solids, and surfaces • Model with precision using coordinate input, object snaps, and SmartTrack tools • Modify curves and surfaces with edit commands • Use control point editing to modify curves and surfaces • Analyze your model • Display any portion of the model • Export and import models |
|
Minimum Student Requirements |
|
• Students must have have basic Windows experience
• Students must be able to open files, make folders, and perform operations such as copy & paste. • Students should also have experience with content creation software, such as Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. • These are 2D programs, but the experience of creating and digitally editing will serve you well in 3D • Students with experience in any drafting program, such as AutoCAD, will do better • Students with experience in ANY 3D program, no matter how obscure or long ago, will be in awesome shape! |
 What is Level 1? |
|
Level 1 assumes you have never used Rhino -- and starts from there. Even if you have used Rhino before, there is plenty of excellent information to help you get that much better.
|
 |
|
What do you get? |
 THE BOOK. Each student will receive their own copy of the 250-page training manual. Its yours to use during class and keep!HANDOUTS. You'll also get handouts made by Professor Dave. These cover such areas as : common problems experienced by beginners, recommended interface & workflow settings, importing and exporting tricks, the "Golden Rules" of Rhino, and other worthy topics. |
|
|
Do I need to own Rhino? |
|
Yes. Students will need their own computer and a copy of Rhino. If you do not own a copy, you can download a free trial copy from McNeel to use for the entire class. Go to the download page and select Rhino 4.0 Evaluation.
