How we illustrate and produce 2D artwork is evolving, with 3D applications becoming more commonplace across industries. The Grease Pencil tool in Blender allows you to illustrate and animate directly inside the 3D interface, offering a new way of creating art that bridges the gap between 2D and 3D. At first, this may seem strange, but the process of creating with the Grease Pencil is simple, rewarding, and fun!

In this course, Paul will guide you through the essentials-from setting up your interface and navigating the tools to using brushes and coloring techniques. You’ll also work on a completed project that you can proudly add to your portfolio. Step-by-step saves are available at the end of each chapter in case you encounter any difficulties.

Author: Peter L. Berger | Narrator: Rick Adamson
"The most important contribution to the sociology of religion since Max Weber’s The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism" (Commonweal).
Acclaimed scholar and sociologist Peter L. Berger carefully lays out an understanding of religion as a historical, societal mechanism in this classic work of social theory. Berger examines the roots of religious belief and its gradual dissolution in modern times, applying a general theoretical perspective to specific examples from religions throughout the ages. Building upon the author’s previous work, The Social Construction of Reality, with Thomas Luckmann, this book makes Berger’s case that human societies build a "sacred canopy" to protect, stabilize, and give meaning to their worldview.

Author: Paul Koberstein, Jessica Applegate
Narrator: Tom Beyer

In Canopy of Titans, Paul Koberstein and Jessica Applegate examine the global importance of the Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest that stretches from Northern California to Alaska. Their urgent and authoritative account sets out the threats facing a vital environmental resource, and celebrates the beauty and complexity of one of the world’s great forests. Drawing on years of on-the-ground reporting, Koberstein and Applegate pull back the curtain on policies of governmental bodies that have seriously diminished the rainforest’s capacity to store carbon, and uncover industry practices that have led to the destruction of swaths of a major ecological resource. Additionally, using an environmental justice perspective, Canopy of Titans shines a light on the Indigenous communities that have lived in the rainforest for millennia, and the impact forest policies have had on their lives.
