Product Design: From 3D Prototyping to 2D Sketching

Bring your ideas to life with a 5D approach to product design that combines a 3D prototype and 2D sketches to enhance color, material, and finish

If you’ve got a design concept you want to share, you need to know how to get it ready for presenting to the real world. Industrial designer Reid Schlegel works with 2D and 3D to create clear visualizations and models that explain and sell his ideas. Reid is a process drawing and digital presentation professor, and director of industrial design at HUGE. He believes his mission is to improve the human experience through design.

In this course, Reid teaches you his 5D ideation process; creating a 3D prototype paired with a digital render, ready to present to clients. See how to use different materials to build a model, and how to draw a realistic concept drawing that successfully and efficiently illustrates your complex ideas.
