Classes in Vienna, Austria: Workshop (Option 1): August 9th (15:00 – 19:00) & August 10th (11:00 – 18:00). Please contact Izabella directly if you want more information about learning Anarkik3DDesign haptic 3D modelling programme.

Learn haptic 3D modelling in classes and Masterclasses run by Anarkik Creation’s Ann Marie Shillito, CEO of Anarkik3D. She provides bespoke training and learning in Edinburgh, organised to suit your individual requirements. So please get in touch with her to discuss possible dates.

Image for Learn haptic 3D modelling shows a screen capture from a masterclass held in 2023: Allison created al hollow red 3D form with an indent. The image shows the Anarkik3DDesign's program's interface which is very straight forward with all tools visible except the 'preferences' block which is a pop-up.

To share her expertise she runs two levels of bespoke classes for non-CAD-using artists, applied artists and designer makers. One to learn award-winning Anarkik3DDesign and the second, masterclasses for deeper immersion for creative people who already own and use the programme for them to benefit from the programme even more. With 2 people per class this ensures a focus on what you need and a class date that suits you too.

The image above shows Anarkik3DDesigns hapticated 3D modelling interface which is very straight forward with all tools visible with one exception: the ‘preferences’ block is a pop-up. Although the classes are intense, the schedule includes interesting discussions around topics such as accessing 3D printing, a circular economy, and the value of creative sparks such as serendipity, flow, tacit knowledge, mulling etc.

Classes and Masterclasses are held in Edinburgh EH9 2DG. For sole traders/freelances the fees are up to £120 a day (based fairly on what you can pay). Classes can be bundled with the loan of the software and hardware (a laptop if required, and the haptic device). For Institutions and businesses, please contact Ann Marie Shillito to discuss your requirements.

Self-learning Anarkik3DDesign

You can teach yourself to design with Anarkik3DDesign. The Anarkik3D website has all the information required, from purchasing the Falcon haptic device, the haptic 3D modelling software licence, downloading the software, set-up, tutorial videos and worksheets. Ann Marie can organise online sessions on Zoom for a fee if one-to-one tutorials are required.

Getting the ‘kit’ to learn haptic 3D modelling

Bit about the tutor

Ann Marie Shillito is a founder and CEO of Anarkik3D and AnarkikCreations. She is a designer-maker/applied artist in her own right. She enriches her work by using 2nd life materials, either for the 3D printer filament or by embedding/framing precious waste material into her work. Her blog posts (‘Sustainable Me’) cover this work, and information about responsible practice is shared in her courses and masterclasses. She is a member of both Applied Arts Scotland group ‘Closing the Loop’ and Making Design Circular.
