Week 1
orientation with the software:
going over how it works, how it can be used the basic tools, the basic systems.
Installing certain mods such as custom UI (which is an hugely quality of life update)
writing small keybindings (such as keys to see to help identify open objects). Demonstrating how to play with shapes and how to get results fast. All that to get students warmed up properly.s.

Week 2
design principles, while using CAD software principles of design will be the same like in other softwares but the process is simpler and more straight to the point.
Getting a brier ready, doing some research/ref gathering, developing ideas and start on sketching and exploring ideas.

Week 3
demonstration of how to quckly create props that can be re-used in your work, also starting with blocking out initial design ideas, getting all the "Nescessary ideas" into 3D, Ideiation and "3D sketching using CAD", with demonstration on how to use props onto the design.
Creating a good workflow process usign the software.

Week 4
this is where we focus on the design proces, solving problems either in the design or 3D, feedback on the homework.
helping out where help is needed.

Week 5
this week is more about refinement, model cleanup, solve modelling issues, help out with design and details. feedback on the homework.
Go into unqie detail creation.

week 6:
This week is about finalizing details, model cleanup, making sure everything the designs are clean organised, final bits of feedback on homework.
Making sure the designs are final.

Week 6
We go over exporting the design to other software, making sure all details are organized, the models are done.
go over rendering techniques and approaches, in this case mostly keyshot however i will touch on blender as well. showing how you can develop good rendering and adjust materials in keyshot.
making the renders. once the renders are done we go back to photoshop for the final cleanup and presentation of the designs. and making a final piece propperly
