90 classroom hours to be followed and assisted in discovering the use and opportunities offered by Clo3D software

Knowing how to use Clo3D means establishing yourself in the professional environment as an expert in the software most widely used by large fashion houses for its wide range of uses

Thanks to the skills acquired during this course, you will be able to offer specialised knowledge in garment prototyping and thus make production processes more efficient, economical and faster.

As part of the classroom experience, the student has the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with the platform, develop his or her own projects, and create a professional portfolio.

At the end of the course, you will not only be an experienced Clo3D professional, but you will have acquired a working method and a technical and creative mindset to successfully tackle high-level collections.  

Information to decide

Acquire the knowledge to play a key role in the fashion industry 

In this course, students will acquire advanced skills in the field of fashion design, focusing particularly on pattern structuring and alteration. With each lesson, you will learn how and when to use different techniques to develop variations in style, colour and fabric on each individual model, with the aim of creating unique and innovative garments.

Furthermore, at the end of the course you will be able to export images and video animations in order to present products in an attractive and professional manner. 

It is the objective of the programme to provide students with a highly competitive technical and cultural background that will enable them to open up a number of career opportunities in the future. 

This is the perfect course for you if:

●      You work in the fashion industry, in a company, as a consultant or freelance, and wish to enrich your technical and creative skills through the use of 3D technologies.

●      You want to enter this industry with specialised skills that are increasingly in demand today in order to create fashion collections that are both effective and efficient.

To participate in this course, a mastery of the Photoshop programme and a knowledge of the fundamentals of modelling are required.

 Here are the 3 reasons why this course is one of the most popular training programmes:

●      The 100% classroom-based course allows for a complete and precise follow-up, with constant communication between the trainees and the coordinator;
●      At the end of the course, students will produce a professional portfolio containing all the developments and creations designed during the lessons. It will be an individual and customised tool, a concrete business card for successful future job interviews;
●      This course is designed to provide an in-depth understanding of all aspects of Clo3D, from developing a customised avatar to creating accessories to rendering the garment and customising the digital environment. 

Syllabus

The programme is structured in four phases: the first part includes an introduction to Clo3D, which involves becoming familiar with the platform and learning how to operate settings and commands, the second part deals with prototyping of clothing and accessories, the third part focuses on textile creation and manipulation, and finally, in the last rendering phase, students create their designs in 3D.
