TOY DESIGN & PRODUCTION

PUPPET MAKING | MECHANICAL | PAINTING | CASTING | FABRICATION | SCULPTURE

4 MONTH DIPLOMA (FULL-TIME)

SCULPTORS & TOY MAKERS ARE VERSATILE 3D CREATORS.

What makes a good toy maker? Apart from being skilled in traditional sculpting, he/she must be versatile in adopting the latest in 3D technology and rapid prototyping as well.

Our program trains students to be sensitive to observations, as well as the essential processes of sculpting, moulding, painting, photogrammetry & 3D printing. At the end of this course, our students will be able to sculpt lifelike figurines and can expect to create their own line of physical toys and figurines.

SCULPTING & ANATOMY

Students will learn the traditional way of sculpting using clay, with a heavy emphasis on anatomy. Still the preferred method amongst professional sculptors today, clay sculpting is able to translate finer details from mould to casts faithfully.

3D PRINTING

3D printing is increasingly being used in toys and collectibles production. Students will learn how to manage 3D files (e.g. ZBrush) and prepare them for 3D Printing.
