Vita

My name is Jörg Wisor, I am 58 years old and live with my three ladies in Leinfelden-Echterdingen. I have been working in the field of technical communication since 2010 - first in an SME with a focus on product marketing and communication and since 2022 as a technical writer at Roto Frank Fenster- und Türtechnologie GmbH. I spent the previous 25 years at T-COM or its predecessor, the Deutsche Bundespost.

3D has always been an area of interest of mine and in 2010 I took the opportunity to build up this topic in the context of my professional activities. At the beginning, the goal was to prepare the 3D data from the design in such a way that it could replace classic photography. I did this with the Deep Exploration software from Right Hemisphere.

In 2011 I switched to the open source software Blender - there I was able to actively edit the imported models and construct suitable environments for the first time. Blender is such a powerful program that I'm always amazed that something like this is available as free software - for over 20 years. Unfortunately, the topic of 3D visualization is very complex and you often don't know where to start. But with the right settings and strategies, the start is also successful there and ultimately the software can do significantly more than any commercial (usually quite costly) visualization tool.

I have used Blender to create hundreds of product renderings for catalogs, data sheets and websites, as well as completely designed my own products, because there is no 3D CAD data for them. And although I already know the program well, there are still countless functions and concepts that are still worth knowing.
