Course author Scott Onstott is a design consultant, former university lecturer, and independent video producer with more than 15 years' experience writing and teaching video courses on design visualization and image-manipulation software. He is the author of eleven books including AutoCAD 2013 Essentials, Photoshop CS6 Essentials, Enhancing Architectural Drawings and Models with Photoshop, and more.

Onstott's clear and concise teaching style is perfect for guiding users efficiently through SketchUp's powerful tools. Student's will learn tips and techniques gathered from his years of experience, and be able to apply them immediately into a SketchUp workflow.

"SketchUp is so intuitive that it is actually fun to use," Onstott says. "Although it is easy to learn the basics, mastering SketchUp's subtleties and complexities takes a bit more time and attention, and that is where the course is really designed to help students."

After beginning with an overview of the SketchUp user interface, Onstott helps users customize their workspace, and explains the powerful third-party plug-in capabilities of Ruby Scripts. He then goes in depth with SketchUp tools for viewing, editing, layering, and contextualizing your models, before going into the same level of detail with drawing tools.

The course covers everything users need to know for topics like mastering surfaces and edges, designing architectural models, and more, with closing chapters covering final publishing, including presentation, color control, and importing and exporting procedures.
