Is 3D modeling the new leader in product visuals? The 3D modeling industry grew from $6.77 billion in 2024 to $7.60 billion in 2025, and is projected to reach $22.19 billion by 2032.
During my
Nice Moves MN mentorship program, I took on the challenge of creating a 15-second soda advertisement. While animation was my comfort zone, I had to step into the unfamiliar territory of 3D modeling to bring this project to life.
This journey taught me that growth happens when we're willing to try new things, especially with guidance from someone who's been there before. Even if you're not totally happy with how it turns out, each challenge helps you build new skills that will come in handy later.
What skill have you been hesitant to try?
