Twelve years and counting teaching scanning on the Digital Effects course, with a set scanned every year for the students to take apart.

01 · Brief
Give students on the Digital Effects course hands-on time with the on-set technology they will meet in their careers, and give them real data to work with afterwards.
02 · Toolbox
- Terrestrial laser scanners
- Digital cameras
- Photogrammetry
03 · On location
Each year we capture the Take One Painting set with LiDAR and photogrammetry, then bring the results back to the classroom as interactive modules. Jandira Guasque now also teaches an examined photogrammetry module for props.
04 · Result
A long line of students who have loaded our scans into Maya with the textures and learned what the data does and does not give you.
