Summary

Through several real-world projects, Blender Studio Projects shows you how to use the open-source software in a studio setting to get professional results.Projects start from nothing, just as they do in the studio. But here, readers have a guide to take them step by step through attributes and tools. Projects encompass multiple disciplines to create finished, renderable objects. Although some step by step explanations are given, projects serve more as a guide for readers to complete their own version of the project. Each project comes with starter, intermediate, and final files to validate results, as well as movie files for reference.
