In Creating Particle and Fire Effects with Maya, author Aaron F. Ross employs Maya particles and fluids to generate stunning special effects simulations, including exploding fireworks, tumbling snowflakes, and burning flames. Following a project-based approach, the course shows how to emit and render particles, write expressions to control and fine-tune effects, and animate and shade dynamic fluids. Tutorials on batch rendering and compositing in After Effects are also included. Exercise files accompany the course.

Topics include:

* Laying out the scene
* Sketching particles on a Live object
* Connecting particles to Fields such as Gravity
* Emitting particles from particles
* Varying particle shader attributes
* Modeling and shading for the Particle Instancer
* Importing and instancing geometry onto particles
* Randomizing particle rotation with Creation and Runtime Expressions
* Adding Turbulence
* Rendering depth of field with mental ray
* Creating 3D Fluid containers
* Emitting dynamic fluid attributes from an object
* Animating a dynamic fluid
* Using a fluid for atmosphere
* Modulating light intensity with a noise expression

Blender Certified Trainer Lee Salvemini has recorded, from start to finish, modeling a character suitable for a pre-rendered game cutscene or short film. In the DVD Lee will guide you through the tools and techniques used in Blender to create the character, from the modeling stage, to posing the character, applying realistic cloth simuation, and finally rendering and compositing the model with nodes in an epic scene for client/team presentation. All tutorials include helpful pop-up hints and complete audio commentary. Ninja character concept by David Revoy, Art Director of Sintel. Bonus chapters include techniques to master edge loops, and an introduction to modeling in Blender 2.5.

ZBrush Manimal Creation | *.pdf (70 pages) | project files | 212.56 MB
Manimal is a ZBrush tutorial series divided into six parts, covering nearly 70 pages and addressing the process of transforming a generic base mesh into an original creature design.

The notion behind the series assumes the task of genetically splicing a human being with a different animal class and sculpting the resultant character. Each of the tutorials adopts a different animal class as its theme and walks through the stages of developing a concept, sculpting the overall proportions through to the individual features and particular anatomical mutations. The types of brushes used to form the main muscle groups alongside those used to create the finer details are covered, with each author offering their unique approach to the process. Texturing techniques and material set ups are included in the series with all the associated tips and tricks that help towards producing a final render.

This eBook also contains a base mesh, matcaps and movie files.
