    Student voices

    Don't take
    our word. Take theirs.

    Real words from students who built their first scenes with us.

    I came in thinking 3D was only for experts. By the end of the workshop, I had built a complete scene myself. That first render gave me the confidence to keep going.
    Rohan S.3D DESIGN · Chennai
    I was stuck watching tutorials and copying steps. Here, I actually understood why we were doing things. The live feedback made a huge difference.
    Priya M.3D & VISUAL DESIGN · Bengaluru
    The modular modelling trick was a game changer. Build one piece, duplicate it, modify it — suddenly a whole scene didn't feel impossible anymore.
    Arjun K.GAME ART · Hyderabad
    I joined because I wanted to try 3D once. The workshop was so practical that I ended up creating something I could actually put in my portfolio.
    Nisha R.ARCHITECTURE STUDENT · Pune
    The AI workflow saved me so much time. From finding references to planning the scene, everything felt faster and much less confusing.
    Vivek P.AI + CREATIVE DESIGN · Mumbai
    I expected another boring online class. Instead, I spent the session building, experimenting and asking questions. The final render honestly surprised me.

    Is it online or in person?

    Classes are live online, so you can join from anywhere. Hephy is based in Jayanagar, Bengaluru.

    A laptop that can run the program's software and a stable internet connection. We share free and trial options for paid AI tools.

    Do I get a certificate?
