We have decided to phase out the Mixed Reality Forums over the next few months in favor of other ways to connect with us.
The first way we want to connect with you is our mixed reality developer program, which you can sign up for at https://aka.ms/IWantMR.
The plan between now and the beginning of May is to clean up old, unanswered questions that are no longer relevant. The forums will remain open and usable.
On May 1st we will be locking the forums to new posts and replies. They will remain available for another three months for the purposes of searching them, and then they will be closed altogether on August 1st.
So, where does that leave our awesome community to ask questions? Well, there are a few places we want to engage with you. For technical questions, please use Stack Overflow, and tag your questions using either hololens or windows-mixed-reality. If you want to join in discussions, please do so in the HoloDevelopers Slack, which you can join by going to https://aka.ms/holodevelopers. And always feel free to hit us up on Twitter @MxdRealityDev.
Where can I find training for 3D modeling and Unity with the purpose of designing for Hololens?
I've searched online for any kind of Hololens training, and I haven't really found any kind of conferences or courses. Nothing further than the Microsoft tutorials?
I'm asking as a team of two: Designer and Developer. As a designer, I'd like to find training in 3D modeling and animation that is compatible for Unity and Hololens. Most training is more niche for high res videos/graphics or video games. And as a developer, we're looking for hands on training/support for Visual Studio and Unity.
Hololens is really a niche, and it's difficult to find specific training!

The pluralsight course for game development using Unity 3d worked well as a starting point for me, having started with no exposure to Unity. There are several courses on unity and the training courses are easy to use and can be watched at up to double speed.
See this one https://unity3d.com/learn for Unity's training, and this one for pluralsight's training https://app.pluralsight.com/library/courses/introduction-game-development-unity/table-of-contents

Have you considered looking for training geared for mobile? There is a lot of overlap between mobile and HoloLens.
