The design of rigging structures is an integral part of the event, entertainment, display, and exhibit industries. The Braceworks® suite of commands and tools inserts and connects supporting structures (such as trusses and lighting pipes), adds hoists and other supports, and then adds loads to the structures. With our Braceworks Essentials seminar, you will explore how to accurately calculate and analyze the structural forces of a hanging rigging system, to determine whether the structural system is viable.
With our Vision Essentials seminar, you will explore the seamless integration between Vectorworks Spotlight and Vision, allowing you to visualize your design in rendered 3D views. This seminar will cover the fundamental knowledge, needed to be successful with Vision software.
NOTE: The Vectorworks Hidden Treasures Seminar is a live event. The seminar will be recorded and an access code will be sent out to view the recording after the seminar.
When learning to use Vectorworks, or any software for that matter, we are likely to focus on learning how to use just what we need to complete a project. Over time, we may believe we know how to use the application to its fullest extent but have only scratched the surface of what is possible. In this session, the Vectorworks training team will guide you through finding those gems (tools/commands) that will make your design process more efficient. They will also change your perspective on how and when to use certain Vectorworks features that you may already use regularly.
With our Project Sharing seminar, you will explore how to utilize the Project Sharing feature of Vectorworks Design Series products, to easily collaborate with users around the world. When working on large projects, Project Sharing enables multiple users to work together simultaneously.
