In this course we cover using the resource Megascans to find and use basic texture scans to create interesting dynamic materials. Students will be able to more intelligently evaluate textures based on color, visual characteristics of textures, and how to blend textures based on color while understanding how this affects the visual color balance. Students will learn how to use megascans studio to take plain textures and tell a story through texture blending by understanding how materials in the real world behave and how to use color and reflectivity to convey this story. Through the use of visual storytelling in textures we learn how to use megascans studio to create stunning textures.
