Could it fit your work?

A designer creating a product visualisation or short 3D animation while retaining an editable scene.

What can you do with it?

  • 3D modelling
  • Rigging and animation
  • Simulation and rendering
  • Compositing and video editing

Check this before you choose

  • Check hardware demands using a scene representative of your actual project, including materials and lighting.
  • Allow time for modelling, materials and render review; free software does not remove the need for production skills.

Try this practical task

Build a simple object from basic shapes, add two materials and a light, then render one camera view. Change only the lighting and compare shadows, detail and how clearly the shape reads.

A suggested task for you to try; not a Perkufo hands-on test report.
