This petition is to generate enthusiasm and support for the understanding, desire, and creation of hands-on Pixologic ZBrush training courses to prepare digital artists for the world and profession of digital sculpting with one the most robust 3D sculpting, modeling, texturing, and animation software packages in the industry, at Cañada College in Redwood City. It would be a genius move to add this software package to a host of necessary software required for Digital Art and Animation degrees and certificates.

Some of what can be expected from these courses would be:
  • Learning how to choose from a wide variety of brushes with different settings all required to achieve various effects necessary to create lush and believable shapes and forms
  • Painting from Spotlight to implement textures from photographs directly onto your sculpt! "Pixols" software technology allows for instantaneous painting techniques without the need for UVs, retaining color, height, and material data without the need for UVing.
  • When it comes time to export models for animation, ZBrush has the most efficient method of laying down polygons along your sculpt, directly snapping to the surface.
  • Projecting higher resolution detail, baking details from subtools directly onto your new polygonal model, retaining as much data as you allow.
  • Exporting models out of ZBrush for UV layout or have their UVs managed directly in ZBrush itself.
  • Overall, become confident and comfortable navigating the ZBrush interface, exporting and importing geometry, UVs, materials, subtools and more.

Thank you for signing. With YOUR help, and signature, we may finally bring ZBrush instructional classes to the Cañada College Campus.

Updates

October 16, 2023

The administration at Cañada College continues to ignore the obvious need for industry-standard ZBrush training while students fall behind in the job market. We are gathering momentum to force them to modernize this curriculum and stop wasting our time with outdated workflows.

Considering that zbrush is a staple in the industry, it would be very beneficial to have this be part of the Cañada digital arts and animation curriculum!

Would be a great class! I’ve been doing 3D modeling for 19 years. This would be a great next step! The future is NOW.

This program will be very good for us to learn in 3D designing.
