Digital Tutors Getting Started With TopoGun - iRONiSO

Digital Tutors: Getting Started With TopoGun
English | Team: iRONiSO | ISO | 1.12 GB
Genre: Video Training

In this TopoGun tutorial we're going to learn the basics of using TopoGun to build custom topology for our models. These days it's common practice to create extremely high resolution and highly detailed models in sculpting applications like ZBrush or Mudbox. These models can give us a great idea of what a character, set, or prop will look like but they're usually not optimized for rigging, animation, or use in a real-time game engine. Or the underlying topology we are using to sculpt may not be optimal for the detail we're creating. TopoGun remedies these issues by allowing us to very intuitively draw new geometry right on top of our existing models. This new topology can be used as a new base mesh when sculpting, or we can use it in game engine along with all of the texture and normal maps that TopoGun also creates. We'll start out the course by talking about the importance of good topology and why TopoGun can be such a a useful tool. We'll go over the interface and the basics of getting around the application. We'll talk about the tools you'll be using in TopoGun to create and modify topology. We'll cover the generation of different types of texture maps and cover a symmetrical workflow. Once we're done with the tutorial, you'll be able to start using TopoGun to really speed up your workflow and create more optimal topology for your projects. We will also be jumping around a little to different applications, to see how well TopoGun integrates, so it will be helpful if you have some experience with Maya, ZBrush, or Mudbox

Digital Tutors - Sculpting Workflows in Mudbox 2012

In this series of lessons we will cover all of the different sculpting tools in Mudbox and talk about some workflow tips to keep in mind as you sculpt.
Within Mudbox, there is a wide range of sculpting tools that allows artists to create many different effects. Some of these tools are more commonly used so they are well covered in many of our Mudbox courses, but all of them serve a purpose and can be an important part of your artist's toolbox. In this course we will cover all of the sculpt tools, one by one, talking about how they can be used and what some of the unique properties are for each one. We'll cover the more commonly used tools like the Sculpt Tool and Grab Tool and lesser used tools like Flatten and Scrape. We'll look at the reasons for using each one and talk about how to add our own custom tools to the tool tray. We'll finish up by talking about a couple of different sculpting workflows you can take advantage of. In the end, you'll have enough knowledge of all of the Sculpt Tools in Mudbox to begin integrating them into your workflow..

Digital Tutors - Procedural ICE Modeling in Softimage 2012

In this course we will take a look at building an advanced ICE modeling compound to control the copying of an element with two control curves.
We’ll begin this project by creating ICE extrusions with curves and strands to create our base stair element. We'll then create copies of our element inside an empty mesh. Then we'll create a control curve, find the transformations at various locations along the curve, and transform our copies to be on the curve. We'll then create a second curve to control other aspects of our copies and package everything into a compound. We'll then learn how to create controls to easily modify our copies without having to understand our ICE tree.

We’ll also learn about choosing both key and fill lights for our scene. Some of the other topics we will address while working through this painting are things like atmospheric perspective, reflected light, cast shadows and form shadows as well as the interaction between colored lights. After completing this course, you should have a better idea of how to choose color for a night time image.

Digital-tutors : Creative Development: Motion Flow Rigging in Maya with Farley Chery

In this series of lessons, learn the process of rigging with an emphasis on fluidity and natural motion.

In this course, Farley Chery will be introducing extraordinary new rigging concepts to help animators achieve natural fluidity in our body movement. He will cover different theories and methods used in combination to give natural articulation that occurs during body movement. The artist will explain the theory and reasoning through the rig development process.
This leads into the creation of an innovative shoulder setup, based on the postion of the elbows mimicking the proper actions of human anatomy, which uses the concepts covered to make it intuitive to use in both FK and IK systems. This implementation of a remarkable no flip knee setup, which is used to create an automatic hip system, magically orients itself to the average position of the knees allowing for quick and natural poses for the character. This course is concluded by building a squash and stretch nSpine and an easy method for creating spine twists. These revolutionary methods come directly from the artist and can not be found anywhere else.

Digital Tutors - Introduction to Procedural ICE Modeling in Softimage 2012

Digital Tutors - Introduction to Procedural ICE Modeling in Softimage 2012 | 412.22 MB
Genre: Elearning

In this series of lessons we’ll learn how to begin using the powerful ICE procedural modeling tools in Softimage. By harnessing the speed and flexibility of ICE, we can create some amazing effects and unleash our artistic creativity.
We’ll begin this project by learning the new terms and nodes we have access to, such as the topology data type, modeling ICE Trees, and empty meshes. Next we’ll learn about some limitations of the topology nodes by creating an ICE tree that deletes all polygons outside a Null. We’ll then begin our main shatter project by creating all the objects and nodes to shatter our own object. Then we’ll learn methods of controlling our shatter points and correctly setting the Chunk IDs. Finally we will break our chunks out into separate meshes with a compound we will create using the topology nodes. As a bonus, we will set-up a basic rigid-body simulation and learn how to set the center of mass using a quick custom compound.

Digital-Tutors : 3D Pan and Tile Sky Replacement in NUKE

Digital-Tutors : 3D Pan and Tile Sky Replacement in NUKE
eLearning | 515 MB

In this course we’ll learn how to create a 3d sky using a pan and tile technique in NUKE. By stitching together multiple photographs, we will be able to create a fake sky background for our composite.

We’ll begin this project by learning about the card node in NUKE, and setting up the card to correctly have lens distortion, fit our lens, and set-up the initial node networks for faster duplication. We’ll then connect the rest of our sky cards and use some math to make a rough placement. From there, we will refine the rotations and placement to hide as much of the seams as possible. We’ll then tie all the cards together into an axis so we can control the entire sky using a single transform. After that, we’ll match our sun placement, color correct our sky and render it separately to use z-blending to hide our seams. Finally, we’ll learn how to fix issues with our tiles using NUKE and Photoshop, then do a few final compositing tricks and render our sky sequence.
