Learn to craft a miniature universe, from the foundational structure to the final details
When you build a miniature model, you bring an entire world to life using nothing but a floor plan and your imagination. Whether you’re putting together a set for a stop-motion animation or a representation of an architectural design, model making is an art that captures the ideas roaming around your mind and expresses them in a tangible way.
In this course, learn to build a miniature model of a simple interior space using basic tools and techniques with the help of Julieta La Valle, expert set designer specialized in creating scale models and miniature worlds for audiovisual productions, photography, and advertising.
Start by getting to know Julieta as she describes her professional background, from her first steps in the world of model design to her latest personal and professional projects. Discover some of her main influences, particularly from the world of film.
Next, Julieta gives you an overview of the basic tools and materials you need to complete the course, indicating which are essential and which ones are optional.
No discussion on miniature models would be complete without an exploration of scaling. Julieta delves into this key topic, explaining how she uses scales in her work and teaching you how to use an architect’s ruler to transform real-life measurements into an accurate scale that you can apply.
Begin designing your final project by collecting references, from other artists’ illustrations and your own drawings to photos of an interior space.
