Based in Paris, William Boujon and Julien Benayoun are two multidisciplinary designers best known for their FDM 3D printing experiments. Together, they cofounded the Bold agency and chose to work only with ethical, environmentally friendly materials.
Over the years, they have worked with Habitat Design Lab, the Centre Pompidou, and the Quincaillerie Moderne. They have also collaborated with other artists such as Emmanuelle Roule and Hors-Studio, and some of their creations have been acquired by the Centre National des Arts Plastiques. Alongside their experiments with machines, they also lead workshops to spread their knowledge on the subject.

PlusGood course, I understood how to generate basic figures with Fusion 360, how to shape them, how to use the options, with Superslicer I understood how to set the thickness of the walls, how to remove the filling, that is explained very well. Only two things against it, 1- the language and that suddenly the explanation is very fast and between the fact that their program brings the name in French, and ours in English or Spanish, it gets complicated, and the other thing is that there is a lack of more explanation of the types of filament.

There is technology currently available to perform dubbing from a transcription. This way, we could avoid subtitles for non-French speakers, freeing up more visual area on the screen.
The course uses very specific tools and very closed software. You could provide information more broadly, for example, by using more common slicers available in the market.
