Rhino Level 1 for Film & TV Course Structure
In this certified Rhino course, you'll learn how to create and edit precise free-form 3D NURBS models for set and prop design. The course moves quickly and covers a wide range of Rhino's features, including advanced surfacing tools. You'll follow a structured path through the user interface, command access, and the creation and modification of curves, surfaces, and solids. By the end of the course, students are expected to be able to:
- Understand and navigate comfortably around the Rhino User Interface - including navigation and object selection
- Be aware of all Rhino object categories - curves, surfaces, solids, SubD and annotation
- Recognise which object category is appropriate for a specific modelling application - freeform or planar modelling, for example
- Create and edit curves, surfaces and solids - using appropriate tools
- Know how to create objects within the 3D space using Rhino’s modelling constraints
- Understand Rhino’s simple editing and creation commands such as Move, Copy, Rotate & Mirror
- Have learnt the importance of creating accurate models - coincident curve ends and coincident surface edges for the purpose of creating closed objects
- Understand the usefulness of Gumball - the manipulator widget found in Rhino whose purpose is to apply popular tools in Rhino directly to a selected object
- How to produce simple renderings of your Rhino models
