Getting Started with Spark AR Studio | Learn How to Create Augmented Reality Effects
When I first started learning Spark AR it was a lot to take in. I was super overwhelmed because I had 0 experience with 3D modelling software, photoshop, or augmented reality development. The Spark AR Studio is created using many similar concepts of the softwares that I just mentioned above, so for anyone with any graphic design, gaming, or 3D background its quite easy to get started as an AR Creator. For everyone else, there is a big learning curve!
I learned Spark AR online thanks to many helpful YouTube tutorials and Spark AR courses [I’ll share YouTube channels & courses at the end of this article]. I created this video because I thought it would be valuable to run you through the entire Spark AR Studio from start to finish whilst sharing my knowledge and tips that I learned from personal experience along the way.
Before filming this video, I honestly thought it would only be 5-6 minutes long, and it turned out to be almost 40 minutes! Whoops…😅 but I think everything mentioned in this video is important for any aspiring AR creators. This video walkthrough is for anyone who is completely new to augmented reality and Spark AR. This high-level overview of the software focuses on navigating the interface and getting comfortable using the software. I hope this video walkthrough will help you overcome any doubts or fears that you may have of beginning your AR journey. 🙂
