Interested, but still want to learn more?
First of all, thank you for scrolling down this far. I’m going to break things down in more detail so you can make the most educated decision possible.
Who are you?!
My name is Eddy Adams and I have been a 3D artist since I was walking. After a decade in advertising, I was thrust into the world of AR thanks to a production company called We Are Royale having faith in my abilities. Since then, I have grown to work with agencies, brands, and music artists all over the world.
While creating more complex filters, I started recording micro tutorials for the Spark AR community. They were received with so much enthusiasm that I decided to build a full masterclass based on my techniques, workflows, and strategies. Which brings us to why we’re here.
The Masterclass
This masterclass is my way of sharing my knowledge and personality in an organized, concise package. To make learning more interesting, the class is structured around a narrative sci-fi fantasy involving a meteorite, diverse locations to explore, characters to meet, and one big bad boss to confront. Having a central storyline adds context and purpose to the projects we’ll build together.
Each chapter contains a few projects that cover tons of topics and features of Spark AR. To further solidify the topics, optional assignments are available with each project. I will personally be offering support, feedback, and critique for anyone who decides to participate.
The projects will include face masks, animated 3D objects, LUT color filters, a meteorite display, face deformation, a flying companion, headwear, particle effects, detailed character design, world-scale environments, a head monster, arcane technology, zombies, a 3D city, lasers, and quite a bit more. In order to keep the story a surprise, I won’t divulge too many more details.
Software
Over the course of the course, Spark AR will be the primary program used, but I will also dip into other programs for asset creation. It’s helpful to have some knowledge of these programs, but not necessary. Either way, I will provide all the assets you’ll need to build each project. The other programs include Cinema 4D, Substance Painter, Affinity Photo, Quixel Megascans, FontBase, Crushee, Adobe After Effects, and Adobe Audition.
Business Strategies
Near the end of the course, you will also learn about my business strategies. How to use After Effects to format filter captures to look nice on an Instagram feed. How to approach building a modern portfolio website. How to keep organized with a consistent folder structure. These strategies will set you apart from the average filter creator.
By the end of this course, you will have a deep understanding of Spark AR, filter design, and how to make a killing!
So what do you say?
I'm in!
