Creating an interactive 3D portfolio gallery

Course
Date: August 25, 2023
We will create a 3D web gallery using WebGL technology, namely the Playcanvas service. It's an unusual way to showcase your creative work. We will also need knowledge of Autodesk 3Ds Max and basic skills in Photoshop/Photopea.

Please send a private message to Patreon to be added as a member of an already completed project on Playcanvas, so it will be more convenient for you to study the project, copy assets and scripts!

Here are some of the features we'll be working on:
* Dynamic loading of large portfolio images to improve project loading speed in the browser.
* Moving around the scene using the Point And Click method, i.e. moving when clicking to a specific location on the floor.
* Smooth animation of the dashboard.
* Soundtrack for the infobar.
* And much more.

You will also have access to scripts written by me for 3Ds Max, which allow you to speed up the saving of models for Playcanvas, as well as adapt images to different picture formats.
