Gain professional 3D design skills in this five-day Autodesk 3ds Max course. Explore modelling, texturing, lighting, and rendering using Arnold and V-Ray. Strengthen your creative workflow through real-world projects and produce stunning visual results.

The Autodesk 3ds Max Fast Track Silver course is a comprehensive five-day training programme designed to take you from beginner to intermediate level in one structured learning journey. Whether you’re new to 3D design or looking to strengthen your skills quickly, this course delivers a complete, hands-on understanding of modelling, materials, lighting, animation, and rendering.
You’ll start with the fundamentals — learning how to navigate the interface, set up projects, and build precise 3D models using a variety of techniques such as modifiers, splines, and Boolean operations. Once you’ve established a solid foundation, you’ll progress into more advanced topics including mesh modelling, dynamic simulations, and photorealistic rendering using Arnold and V-Ray.
The course also covers essential creative techniques for applying materials, managing cameras and lights, and setting up efficient workflows for both architectural and product visualisation. By the end of the training, you’ll know how to create, animate, and render professional 3D scenes ready for presentation or production.
Delivered in small, interactive groups at our London training studios or live online, this fast-paced, practical course is perfect for designers, visualisers, and creative professionals who want to gain real-world 3D design skills in a short timeframe. You’ll leave with a solid grasp of Autodesk 3ds Max — and the confidence to produce high-quality, realistic 3D projects on your own.
