T0922 - 3D Buzz Mastering Maya Advanced Modeling 4 DVD
3D Buzz : Mastering Maya: Advanced Modeling
Video Training + projects | 4 DVD
These videos will teach you many techniques and every single tool for all three of Maya's modeling surface types: Polygons, NURBS, and Subdivision Surfaces. Throughout the 116 hour class, you will progress through seven separate modeling projects, each covering a fully demonstrated model. Push your skills to the next level as you are guided through the construction of a handgun with silencer, night vision goggles, two separate characters (one male and one female) each using two entirely different modeling and artistic styles, as well as an F-18 fighter jet and a Lamborghini Murcielago!
Nowhere else on the planet can you find so much modeling education in one place, all for a price that will save you thousands of dollars!
Project 1: The SOCOM Pistol
This first project of the Maya Advanced Modeling curriculum will introduce you to Maya's robust polygonal modeling toolset, and is the only video out there showing you every single tool available within Maya (version 7.0), and giving you solid examples on how you can use them. After this solid introduction, you'll complete your first model, the SOCOM pistol complete with silencer and under-barrel Laser Aiming Module (LAM)! Throughout the videos, you'll learn smooth and lower-poly workflows, as well as how to employ a wide variety of tools and techniques!
Project 2: The Lamborghini Murcielag
Once you understand and have mastered the available polygon tools in Maya, it's time to expand out and get into good polygonal workflow issues and how to properly lay out your polys to create the best looking models you can. In this video, we show you how you can create the Lamborghini Murcielago through a very powerful and easy-to-master workflow, by which you create a 3-dimensional line drawing of the model, and build each and every polygon upon it.
The videos cover the creation of each and every panel of the exterior, the rims, brake discs and calipers, as well as the interior, seats, steering wheel, dashboard, a basic engine block, and more!
Project 3: The Night-Vision Goggles
Maya boasts one of the most complete NURBS modeling solutions in the effects industry and with these videos you can finally take the intimidation out of using them! Starting from the very beginning with NURBS surface theory, these videos lay down the ground rules of what you must keep in mind when creating NURBS surfaces, as well as demonstrating every tool available, along with every single setting for those tools! Learn about the creation of curves and surfaces, and how to create your very first seamless model of a pair of cartoony night-vision goggles!
Afraid of NURBS? Fear them no longer! This video has everything you need to get up to speed quickly!
Project 4: The Dash Cunning Character
Once you have general mastery over the NURBS toolset, it's time to really sink your teeth in and start using NURBS to create some impressive models. This video will walk you through the creation of your very own cartoony NURBS character, Dash Cunning! You'll see how to attach and detach NURBS surfaces to create a seamless surface, as well as how what workflow considerations you must remember to create a patched model! You'll also learn how you can apply MEL scripting to speed up your NURBS workflow by creating a customized HUD to handle many of the common modeling functions!
To top it all off, you'll learn how you can convert your NURBS surfaces into other surface types, allowing for easier rigging and texturing later on!
Project 5: The Black Widow Spider
This video puts you in control of Maya's Subdivision Surfaces (SubDs), allowing you a tremendous amount of power for creating a variety of organic models! Building upon the skills from the Polygon projects (SOCOM Pistol and Lamborghini Murcielago), you'll learn how you can apply the polygonal toolset to create SubD models, and how to use the hierarchical nature of SubDs to add extreme amounts of detail to your creations! We cover addition and removal of detail, along with creasing, mirroring, and every available tool for SubD modeling.
The videos also demonstrate the creation of your first SubD model, the Black Widow spider, using photographic reference.
Project 6: The Realistic Human Character
One of the key tests of mettle for any modeler is the creation of a realistic human being. In this video, we will approach the creation of a female model by using photographic referencing. Using polygons to design the base model, you'll see how to add in believably realistic human details with the SubD toolset, until you have a believable and ready-to-rig and animate human being!
Project 7: The F-18 Hornet Jet Fighter
Once you have learned all available surface types in Maya, it's time to put all of them to use in a single model. This video demonstrates the creation of an F-18 Hornet jet fighter from the Blue Angels show squadron. Rife with a huge supply of on-site photographic references, you'll see how to create the entire exterior surface of the plane, as well as how to create a highly detailed cockpit included ever display, knob, switch, and dial (not to mention a few extras we threw in for good measure)! You'll also see how to rig up a set of landing gear for set-driven key animation, as well as how to create a functioning canopy that opens and closes at your command!

T0897 - Sketching the Portrait with Casey Baugh
Sketching the Portrait with Casey Baugh,” is number one in a series of advanced Charcoal Demonstrations by American Artist Magazine competition winner, CASEY BAUGH.
There are almost no quality videos about drawing, and charcoal in particular, so this really is a must-see. Casey introduces the viewer to methods such as the “charcoal sock” which puffs charcoal dust on the page. This is what he uses to start the drawing, to keep it general and light. He then develops the center of interest, and works out from there. Casey uses methods such as sprinkling charcoal dust on the page, then spraying it with acetone. He also manipulates the image with a paintbrush dipped in acetone.
“Thanks to this forthright and friendly DVD, Sketching the Portrait with Casey Baugh, I learned many things about charcoal technique and basic drawing that I never knew before. I can’t wait to see what he will share with us next.” RICHARD SCHMID
Casey Baugh was born in 1984 to Jerry and Angie Baugh in Lookout Mountain, Georgia. Baugh’s earliest art instruction came around the age of four from his father and aunt who were artists by hobby. This nurturing, along with Baugh’s early interest in art, gave him the strong foundation and motivation that would allow him to produce and sell professional work by the age of 13. At age 14, Baugh won his first regional competition and by age 17, he had won his first national competition. With no formal training, Baugh continued to educate himself by studying the work of other accomplished artists. In the spring of 2004, he conducted his first workshop at the Village Arts of Putney in Vermont.
Now, at age 22, Baugh has made two television appearances and won numerous awards including the cover competition for American Artists Drawing Magazine. Baugh believes that good art “requires a distinct idea and a thorough knowledge of the language [of art] by which to communicate it. A good artist always has something to say, but truly great artists have obtained the ability to say it through experience and sheer determination.” It is with this mind-set that Baugh is doing work comparable to artists three times his age and has continued to conduct workshops, offer demonstrations, and give lectures in order to teach aspiring artists how to effectively communicate their interpretation of the beauty of creation and life through art.
T0896 - Cartoon Smart - Blender Logic Bricks
CartoonSmart just released an amazing new Blender lesson, instructed by John Nyquist as usual. If you’ve already been following his Blender Basics courses you’ve obviously seen how to create 3D models and animation, but this course teaches something totally new: Real-time 3D gaming with Blender. Sounds cool right? Well here’s the best part… it works without programming. You basically just make linkages between 3d objects and properties. Like a cube gets linked to gravity for example. You’ll “get it” within 10 minutes of watching the tutorial. Although you can kind of it see it in action if you watch the demo video on the sales page (just follow what the mouse does in the bottom half of the screencapture)
What amazes about how Blender setup this 3D engine is the simplicity. And this also irks me a bit too, because as the usual Flash gaming teacher at CartoonSmart, I can’t even describe how complicated it would be to teach the equivalent of what this lesson sets up in the first few minutes. And Flash only deals with the x and y axis! Watching this lesson also made me rethink the complexity that I’ve assumed was in the video games collecting dust on my shelves. So as far as tutorials go, it was definitely mind-blowing.
T0895 - Gnomon Workshop Creature With Aaron Sims Vol II Designing with Photoshop, XSI and Deep Paint (Full)
Aaron Sims’ second DVD illustrates the process of designing a full character in a 3D environment. Starting by creating a quick concept in Photoshop, Aaron models the character in XSI, texturing it in Deep Paint. Aaron shows how to use XSI to build the rig and pose the character, and then sets it in an environment where helights and renders it. Finally, he finishes the piece in Photoshop, showing you techniques to give your design a refined and completed look.
T0894 - Gnomonology - The Making Of Jester
Gnomonology - The Making Of Jester
This 'making of' demonstration and lecture began with the decision to take a personal sketch, develop it in 3D and produce a lifesize print. This would require the development of high-resolution detail and textures that could hold up to a 4000x6000 pixel render, effectively making Jester a film-res character. Using Maya, UVlayout, Zbrush, Bodypaint and Photoshop, 'Jester' was created in 60 hours. Observe and listen as Alex shares his workflow, thought process and techniques.
