(TICKET REQUIRED) From Idea to 3D in 1 Hour: Integrating AI into the Modern Design Process

Join Aric Armon of PLC Detroit to discover how AI can accelerate creativity from sketch to 3D model in just 1 hour. This hands-on session guides participants through analog thumbnail sketching on Post-its, digital sketching using Procreate, AI-assisted rendering with Vizcom, and AI-assisted 3D modeling with Meshy.ai to demonstrate ethical and effective uses of AI in the design process. Attendees will explore how to integrate these tools in art and design classrooms to enhance, not replace, human creativity and prepare students for emerging industry roles that demand AI fluency.
