Using Procreate or another drawing program, you will then sketch out your designs, ready to bring them to life in the digital realm.

Max will provide you with a detailed introduction to CLO 3D, a powerful software for creating digital fashion. You will learn how to navigate the interface, create patterns, sew fabrics, unstitch seams, and even animate your designs. With Max’s expertise, you will put together a handbag in CLO 3D, following your digital pattern, and learn how to add realistic details, create volume, and apply texture using UV maps.

Moving on to Cinema 4D, Max will guide you in crafting your scene and creating the perfect lighting setup to enhance your digital fashion piece. You will also learn how to mix and match materials and textures using Redshift, a popular rendering engine, to achieve a realistic look for your final render.
