New Course: Substance Painter for Motion Designers

by
School of Motion

Learn pro-level material authoring techniques with 3 projects and over 8 hours of video training.

We're excited to release Substance Painter for Motion Designers. This course teaches motion designers how to create professional, realistic textures and materials for 3D models using Adobe Substance 3D Painter, from basic concepts through advanced techniques like custom smart materials, procedural weathering, and integration with popular 3D software.

In this 8-hour course, taught by EJ Hassenfratz, you'll get an overview of what Substance Painter is, and how it's used in the industry. You'll learn non-destructive workflows for efficient texturing and how to create unique, production-ready textures for any 3D asset. By the time you're done, you'll know how to texture a complete product and export your work to create photorealistic and stylized renders in Cinema 4D and Redshift.

How do I Get The Course?

Great news! If you are a member of our All-Access or Team Training programs, Substance Painter for Motion Designers has already been added to your training library. Go to town!

If you are new to All-Access, now is a great time to join.
