Session 01: Introduction to SubD Modeling
This session introduces the concept of SubD modeling in Rhino, comparing Mesh, NURBS, and SubD workflows. Students will also learn how to use SubD selection filters and manipulate points, edges, and faces with basic transformation commands such as Move, Rotate, and Scale.
Session 02: SubD Creation Tools
Students will explore the core tools for creating SubD objects, including primitive shapes like Box, Cylinder, and Torus, as well as surface-based methods like Loft and Sweep for generating custom base geometries.
Session 03: SubD Modification Tools 1
This session focuses on fundamental SubD editing tools, such as Crease, Insert Edge Loop, Expand, and Bevel, which allow students to refine and shape their geometry efficiently.
Session 04: SubD Modification Tools 2
Students will continue exploring editing commands, including Merge All Coplanar Faces, Inset, Extrude Face, Insert Point, Stitch, Fill SubD Hole, Bridge, Symmetry, Radiate, and Offset SubD, essential for sculpting complex organic forms.
Session 05: SubD Modification Tools 3
Advanced tools such as Subdivide SubD, Spin Edge, Slide Edge, Merge Faces, Quad Remesh, Convert to SubD, and Convert to NURBS will be covered, allowing students to fine-tune geometry and optimize their workflow.
Session 06: SubD Modification Tools 4
This session introduces organizational and cleanup tools such as Named Selections, Soft Transform, Project Curve, Extract Surface, and Repair, helping students manage complex models and ensure geometry integrity.

Session 01: Bridge-Based Modeling Exercise
In this session, students will focus on a guided task utilizing the Bridge command alongside point, edge, and face transformations to develop organic connections within SubD forms
Session 02: NURBS to SubD Workflow
Students will learn how to convert traditional Rhino geometry into SubD objects, modify them organically, and convert the final model back into Rhino surfaces for further refinement or export.

Session 01: Organic Curves Creation
Students will begin by drawing expressive, controlled curves as a foundation for their organic design.
Session 02: From Curves to SubD Geometry
This session guides students through generating SubD surfaces from curves, setting up the initial form for further sculpting.
Session 03: SubD Form Development
Students will refine their geometry using SubD editing tools to develop fluid, organic shapes.
Session 04: Adding SubD Details
This session focuses on integrating detailed features and transitions into the SubD model, enhancing complexity and realism.
Session 05: Finalizing the SubD Model
Students will complete the project by cleaning, converting, and preparing the final SubD model for presentation, rendering, or fabrication.
