This course features Coursera Coach!

A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. In this course, you'll dive into Blender Geometry Nodes, mastering the art of procedural generation and foliage scattering. You'll start by learning the fundamentals of Geometry Nodes, building a solid foundation for procedural object creation and environmental design. The course is divided into four key sections. You’ll begin with an introduction to Geometry Nodes and basic grass creation using point distribution and instance scaling. Then, you’ll move on to more complex tasks like generating flower stems with curves, adding flower petals, and introducing leaves along the stems. In the final section, you'll control the density of flowers through weight painting, enhancing the realism and creativity of your scene. Each step is designed to gradually increase your proficiency in procedural environment design. This course is ideal for intermediate Blender users who are looking to expand their skills in procedural asset creation. Basic knowledge of Blender's interface and general 3D modeling concepts is recommended. Whether you’re a game designer, 3D artist, or someone passionate about environmental modeling, this course will give you the tools to create complex, organic landscapes with ease. By the end of the course, you will be able to create and control procedurally generated foliage, flowers, and plants, while mastering advanced techniques like randomization, surface control, and material setup for highly realistic 3D environments.
