COMPUTER CLAY


A course by Martin Kofoed Pedersen that demystifies 3D workflows through a DIY approach, using only free softwares to achieve results that would otherwise be very difficult. Anyone can join!
On the first workshop day, Martin will introduce the software and overall workflow. Participants will sculpt the object they want to produce in ZBrush, from which a two-part mould will be created in Blender. By the end of the session, the moulds will be exported and prepared for 3D printing. Martin will follow each participant individually, step by step.
    On the second workshop day, everyone’s mould will have been 3D printed. Following a demonstration, participants will create up to five individual pieces, which may function independently or be assembled into larger compositions. At the end of the day, the finished work(s) will be raw-glazed in a transparent glaze. 
Requirements: a compatible laptop (Windows 10/11 64-bit or macOS 13+) with Blender and ZBrushCoreMini installed (or the freemium ZBrush edition if CoreMini is discontinued). Please contact us if you experience any issues downloading or installing the software.

The fee includes:
2 sessions
Clay
3D-printed models
Glazes
Firings
Up to 5 final pieces

The class is run in a small group of up to 8 participants to allow for personal guidance.
