In this episode, we are joined by Andy Connacher, a real-time 3D artist and award nominator for the RIBA Prize and CHALK Architecture Prize, who shares his journey from architectural design to real-time 3D. Andy shares his experience working as an architectural designer, his journey of developing his practice and technical skills and gradually becoming a 3D artist, and his professional Rhino–Blender workflow for creating highly detailed 3D environments. He also walks us through his modelling workflow, offering a closer look at the techniques and processes behind his work. If you are interested in 3D art, architectural visualisation, or real-time 3D, this session offers valuable insights into professional 3D workflows and techniques.
