Join our 3D printing live classes from August 11-14
To celebrate that we have settled into our new lab in Alicante, we are organizing a 4-day online 3D Print Fest. We will launch several new instructional videos for our 3D printing courses and will present 4 live classes, including guest speakers, each covering a different topic. We will offer you an exclusive sneak peek into our own 3D print lab and how we work there.
It is an ideal occasion to ask any questions you have on 3D printing, share your experiences and meet other creatives that are 3D printing footwear. Our 3D Print Fest is open to anyone who is enrolled in one (or more) of our 3D printing courses.
LIVE CLASS SCHEDULE:
Monday, August 11, 7:30 PM CEST - 9 PM CEST: 3D PRINTING MATERIALS
We will be talking about which materials we use, their pros and cons, the slicer settings, including relatively new materials such as Balena.
Tuesday, August 12, 7:30 PM CEST - 9 PM CEST: DESIGN FOR 3D PRINTING
In this class we will discuss some clear guidelines for design, making sure your designs are easy to print on an FDM machine. We will discuss design for both vertical and horizontal printing.
Wednesday, August 13, 7:30 PM CEST - 9 PM CEST: SLICING QUESTIONS
In this class you can ask all your questions on slicing. We will give a demo on how to slice a model with different slicer settings in different areas,
Thursday, August 14, 7:30 PM CEST - 9 PM CEST: EXPERIENCE EXCHANGE
This time we speak to several other creatives that are also printing shoes or textiles, sharing their successes and failures. Please join in!
Links to the classes will be shared with all participants in any of our 3D printing classes and our 3D printing bundle. The classes are not open to people who are not enrolled in any of our 3D printing courses.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS ARE SAYING
I took 3 online courses at Footwearology: "Making: The Future of Footwear", 3D Footwear Design in Rhino and Grasshopper for Footwear. My English is not so good, but you can watch the videos again and again, slow them down and now you also have interactive transcription, so you can read along with the video or translate text in your own language for better understanding.
I think the most valuable thing is the Footwearology community: here you find people from all over the world and they have different backgrounds and knowledge. So when I have a question about footwear, once I post this to the community, not only Footwearology teachers, but also other participants, who have a different background, will answer and offer worthful information to me.
Even if you are already a professional for footwear, you can always gain something from the other professionals.
I recommend you to join this community and look forward to exchange information with each other!

I followed Professional Sole Design and I really enjoyed the course. I think you are doing a spectacular job in the footwear area.
Congratulations, a platform like yours was needed!

I took almost all courses of Footwearology in order to gather the knowledge I need to build my business in performance footwear that is made to size, using automated design and manufacturing systems.
For instance, Professional Sole Design gave me the background as to where the industry is coming from, whereas the Grasshopper class is offering me a way to automate everything that is going on. So I can now automate my designs for change, which is very important to be able to fit people's feet.
