Reported by Jerry Yang
From June 29 to July 3, 2026, Jerry led a 5-day Blender 3D modeling camp alongside TA Geeth. From Monday to Friday at 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, the camp introduced students to the fundamentals of 3D modeling, including mesh creation, rendering, texturing, and lighting within Blender’s interface.
Through daily hands-on projects and one-on-one guidance from Geeth with breakout rooms, participants built their technical skills while learning to troubleshoot and problem-solve independently. By the end of the week, students had developed a foundational understanding of 3D design and walked away with several completed Blender projects, like a table, cup, chair, robot, and finally, a fully rendered out realistic living/dining room. Jerry also spent extra time each day for homework reviewing and Q&A.
