Blender Workshop

Trainer: Johannes Kretzschmar

7 May 2025, 14-17

This two-day workshop introduces scientists to Blender, a powerful open-source tool for 3D modeling, rendering, and data visualization.

On Day 1, participants will learn the fundamentals of Blender, including modeling, lighting and rendering. They will create and refine a 3D model of their own experimental setup, applying rendering techniques and post-processing effects for publication-ready fancy visuals.

On Day 2, the focus shifts to automation and analysis, covering scripting, geometry nodes, and simulation. Participants will explore data-driven visualizations, procedural modeling, and dynamic simulations relevant to scientific research. The workshop concludes with open discussions on specific challenges and applications.

A laptop is needed for the course!
