Vectorworks & Twinmotion Tutorial: The Golden Section

This tutorial uses principles of the Golden Section to create an interesting spiral structure modelling in Vectorworks 2022 with some of the amazing freeform modelling tools. Then we look at the new Datasmith Direct Sync with Twinmotion 2022, and explore how to add stunning landscapes, vegetation, and context. in no time at all. Finally we set up some images and render out the final results to stunning effect... all in under 30 minutes!

Revolutionise Your Rendering with Twinmotion
is a beautifully illustrated 322 Page PDF/EPUB with 20 chapters & 9 case studies.

Hi Jonathan, is there a technique that you're aware of to export shadows separately as vectors. Either directly in VWX or with Twinmotion? As an architecture student I'd mostly edit my views in a more graphical or minimalistic style, rather than a photorealistic rendering. It would be great to have that option like it's possible in Revit, Autocad, Archicad, ... for further editing in Photoshop or Illustrator. As far as I read on the forums, there isn't a native way in Vectorworks. - What would be your workflow/suggestion?
