Lumion for Architects

Course Overview

This course provides an introduction to Lumion for Architects. Participants will learn how to import models from Sketchup into Lumion using several ways, make scenes and render them, make their model grassy, add furniture and other objects to make their environment more realistic, animate people and automobiles, use the grid technique when putting together buildings that they can animate, make use of layers, add texture to make their models more realistic, create a construction phasing animation using three alternative ways, and make a video with a time lapse effect.

[Applications]
After taking this course, architects can apply the knowledge they have gained to create realistic 3D models and animations. They can use Lumion to import models from Sketchup, make scenes and render them, add furniture and other objects to make their environment more realistic, animate people and automobiles, use the grid technique when putting together buildings that they can animate, make use of layers, add texture to make their models more realistic, and create a construction phasing animation using three alternative ways. Additionally, they can make a video with a time lapse effect.
