00:00:00,005 --> 00:00:02,008
- [Instructor] Hi, my name is Richard Yacht,

2
00:00:02,008 --> 00:00:04,002
and I'm here to take you through

3
00:00:04,002 --> 00:00:07,006
this step-by-step real-world project in Modo,

4
00:00:07,006 --> 00:00:10,001
in which I'll show you how to model a shoe design

5
00:00:10,001 --> 00:00:12,003
from concept through to completion.

6
00:00:12,003 --> 00:00:14,009
In this course, I'll show you a unique approach

7
00:00:14,009 --> 00:00:16,008
to tackling this kind of project,

8
00:00:16,008 --> 00:00:19,002
which will separate out the prototyping stage,

9
00:00:19,002 --> 00:00:21,003
from the final production stage,

10
00:00:21,003 --> 00:00:24,005
allowing you to make all the required changes to the design,

11
00:00:24,005 --> 00:00:26,008
before committing to the final model.

12
00:00:26,008 --> 00:00:30,003
My approach is to create a low resolution prototype model,

13
00:00:30,003 --> 00:00:33,001
which can be submitted for feedback and approval.

14
00:00:33,001 --> 00:00:35,007
Once this prototype has been given the green light,

15
00:00:35,007 --> 00:00:37,006
you can then use it as a template

16
00:00:37,006 --> 00:00:40,001
over which you build your final model.

17
00:00:40,001 --> 00:00:42,001
This separation of the design stage

18
00:00:42,001 --> 00:00:43,005
from the final modeling stage

19
00:00:43,005 --> 00:00:45,007
will save you a huge amount of time.

20
00:00:45,007 --> 00:00:48,005
And all of the work that you put into the prototype,

21
00:00:48,005 --> 00:00:51,006
will help you to build the final production model.

22
00:00:51,006 --> 00:00:53,007
Once we get into the nitty-gritty of modeling,

23
00:00:53,007 --> 00:00:56,000
I'll demonstrate the best strategies

24
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,006
for creating complex subdivision surface models.

25
00:00:59,006 --> 00:01:01,008
Having the prototype geometry available

26
00:01:01,008 --> 00:01:04,007
for retopology will be a huge time-saver,

27
00:01:04,007 --> 00:01:06,005
and will allow you to concentrate

28
00:01:06,005 --> 00:01:08,006
on the technical aspects of your model,

29
00:01:08,006 --> 00:01:11,006
now that the form is already designed.

30
00:01:11,006 --> 00:01:14,007
Modo has powerful surface constraint tools,

31
00:01:14,007 --> 00:01:18,002
which makes it an ideal model for this kind of geometry.

32
00:01:18,002 --> 00:01:20,008
Creating panels will be a breeze.

33
00:01:20,008 --> 00:01:21,006
You'll also learn

34
00:01:21,006 --> 00:01:24,003
how to harness Modo's work plane and falloffs,

35
00:01:24,003 --> 00:01:28,001
to effectively tackle challenging modeling problems.

36
00:01:28,001 --> 00:01:31,004
Duplicating repeated items is an essential skill

37
00:01:31,004 --> 00:01:33,007
in shoe design, and I'll show you how to do this

38
00:01:33,007 --> 00:01:36,001
in Modo with a minimum of fuss.

39
00:01:36,001 --> 00:01:38,001
And finally, you'll learn how to use

40
00:01:38,001 --> 00:01:39,009
Modo's excellent UV tools

41
00:01:39,009 --> 00:01:44,000
to create effective UV maps quickly and efficiently.

42
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,009
So join me in Modo shoe modeling, on LinkedIn Learning.
