Title: The Gnomon Workshop – Introduction to Massive Prime – Crowd Simulation Techniques with Reza Ghobadinic
Info:
Your comprehensive introduction to Massive Prime has arrived. Head of Crowd/FX TD, Reza Ghobadinic, demonstrates all the key aspects of working with Massive Prime software in this detailed workshop, sharing with you his industry-proven tips and tricks for producing credible crowd simulations suitable for film and TV productions.
During the course of 11 hours of instruction, Reza covers everything you need to know, from the basics of the interface, through to many more advanced topics that are essential to grasping the fundamentals of Massive Prime. Lessons detail how to create agents from scratch including how to gradually add features that will improve their behavior, and discuss the importance of designing the brain in an organized and systematic manner, as used in feature film production. Reza also lectures on how to create a biped crowd agent from a skinned rig and edit animation clips to use for your agent, as well as how to complete it with a dynamic explosion simulation scene.
This essential introduction provides the fundamental knowledge needed to create, test, and render impressive crowd simulations with Massive Prime.

Warning:Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus, and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the installed app. Some of the materials posted here are grabbed from CGPeers, so it could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link (higher than 30% positive result). Thank you.
