MCE Design Workshops – Summer 2010

Independent design studio Motorcity Europe (MCE) is now in its third year of an ongoing series of two- and five-day Design Workshops aimed at broadening the skills, experience and job prospects of anyone working – or looking to work – within the field of automotive design.

The new series of workshop will be held in August – September 2010 and will be an intensely improved version open to all skill levels of Design.

Held within the RLE-MCE design studio in Cologne, Germany, the Workshops are sponsored by Autodesk, Wacom, Bertrandt and RLE and will see well-known design professionals instruct on a range of design techniques, including sketching and visualizing, clay and digital modeling, portfolio improvement, presentation skills, creative thinking, and automotive and product design business strategies.

The Workshops are open to students, graduates, design professionals and even non-designers and are divided into two levels: intermediate and advanced. The latter is only open to those with a degree in automotive or industrial design, or higher-level design students.

Both groups can choose between a two-day intensive weekend course (525 Euros), or a five-day Project Workshop (995 Euros) which will see attendees walk out with a completed 3D portfolio model project developed under the guidance of MCE’s design professionals.

All attendees to the Workshop will have their own Alias Autostudio workstations equipped with Wacom tablets and sketch pads.

No experience in Alias is required, all tricks and tips taught are easy to learn and use.

Reservations are still available at www.motorcityeurope.com for the August 28 and September 04 Workshops.
