The 7th edition of Lu Shuai’s Packaging Design + Blender All-Round Classis a comprehensive professional training course focused on integrating commercial packaging theory with advanced 3D visualization.
Lu Shuai is a well-known instructor in the Chinese design community, particularly on platforms like Bilibili, recognized for bridging the gap between flat graphic design and high-end 3D product rendering.
Based on current listings for the 2025 session, the curriculum typically covers the entire workflow from concept to final render:
- Packaging Strategy: Understanding market positioning, brand identity, and structural design for physical products.
- Blender Mastery: Transitioning from 2D designs (often created in Adobe Illustrator) to 3D space. This includes:
- Modeling: Creating complex containers (bottles, boxes, pouches) and organic shapes.
- Texturing & Materials: Applying advanced effects like foil stamping, transparency, embossing, and realistic labels.
- Lighting & Rendering: Setting up virtual “product photography” studios for photorealistic commercial output.
- AIGC Integration: Recent iterations have begun incorporating AI tools to speed up ideation and texture generation.
