Join megastar Teflon Sega in the virtual world and discover the fundamentals to creating a custom avatar that virtually represents you across your favorite platforms.
After being shelved by his record label, Teflon Sega started his career as a 2D/3D animated singer. Starting simply out of the desire to keep creating music without breaching his contract, he taught himself 3D animation and created his VR avatar “Teflon Sega” as a loophole to keep doing what he loved. Since then, his music catalog has amassed nearly 100 million streams across Spotify and YouTube and has crafted a dedicated community of over 850K across social media, a number that continues to steadily grow. His successes have earned him features in Billboard and Forbes, and past collaborations with music superstars like Justin Bieber, the Weeknd, and Metallica, and most recently producing Fireboy DML’s “Beyond Worlds” music video, he can’t wait to reveal how easy and accessible it can be to create your own virtual avatar and take them to out-of-this-world heights.
Created for anyone curious about the world of VR, getting into VTubing, or just those looking to get a headstart on the rapidly growing metaverse, this class can help anybody create and customize their own 3D avatar.
