This event is part of The Burnaby Festival of Learning a free, multi-day celebration of lifelong learning by community, May 5-9th, 2023

Whether it's a household object, a small heirloom, or your head, you can learn to 3d scan them and turn them into a digital  3d model. The workshop will teach the basics of 3d scanning using your own smart phone or one of MediaWork's more advanced automated 3d scanners. We will also learn about simple tools to clean up, repair and/or edit your scans. Finally we will talk about where we can upload and share these scanned models, and what other creative things we can do with it.   

Participants are welcome to bring their own smartphone to learn about scanning with their smartphone or viewing 3d models.
