Abstract "Drafting Fundamentals for the Entertainment Classroom: A Process-Based Introduction to Hand Drafting, Vectorworks, and SketchUp guides students through a syllabus-formatted semester of integrated drafting concepts and skills. This book links beginner visualization practices with fundamental software knowledge through step-by-step exercises and examples. By presenting hand-drafting and Vectorworks through incremental exercises, students gain an understanding not just of the tools used in drafting but learn why the tools, practices, and standards exist in the first place. SketchUp, a-user friendly 3D modeling program, is integrated into the various exercises to help readers visualize concepts and begin modeling their own ideas. By the end of the book, students will understand drawing construction techniques, USITT-recommended graphic standards, and the typical drawings created for entertainment design, preparing them to dive more deeply into the further complexities and opportunities of Vectorworks and SketchUp. Drafting Fundamentals for the Entertainment Classroom is written to complement a fourteen- or fifteen-week semester of an Entertainment Drafting course. The book's incremental, step-by-step format also provides structure for independent and self-directed study"-- Provided by publisher.
