The CAD / PDM expert Thomas Gruber shows you step by step with practical examples how to create your 3D with Autodesk Inventor 2012 construction plans. After an introduction to the first user to model simple parts that you gradually refine and combine them in assemblies. In addition, you will learn the practical design process as well know how to derive high-quality 2D drawings of the models for manufacturing.

 

1- The basics of Editing We discuss what is entailed in being a commercial post-production editor. A breakdown of the various aspects ofthe job are detailed, and we talk about some of the problems an editor encounters being in the chair. The second part of the class presents basic film editing theories, and provides filmic examples of the main styles of editing: continuity and emphatic.
2- We discuss how to go about creating your first cut. Tips are given on how to synthesize footage into manageable selects, and how to structure your cut depending on the type of project. Liz discusses a past editorial project, and traces its evolution from receiving the footage to the approval of its rough cut stage.

Total Textures v11 is a collection of Alienesque organic textures. From the weird and slimey, to more subtle toned skins, these textures are made up from many layers and elements captured by 50% photography and 50% hand painted. Many textures have several combined layers resulting in the examples you can see here. Of course like all of our textures they are 100% seamless and have additional hand crafted extras such as matching bump maps, many have specular maps too.You can now view every single texture by downloading the cd's thumbnail interface by right clicking the link below (25.14mb)
The average texture size is 1024 pixels on each axis but some range a little higher. All of the textures are jpeg format (saved at the highest quality setting) and so are compatible with all 3d and 2d software.
As with all of our CDs there is a interface which runs in your browser (works on all PCs and Macs) to enable easy texture previewing and selection. Plus access to the extras bonus material in the form of tutorials and project overviews. These give an insight into how the textures can be used.

Physical simulations are cool, most of us in vfx think so anyway. Once you know the basics of how to set them up in a software package, you could spend hours watching them tick along, doing randomly cool things. What's tough is making simulations do what you need for a shot. It isn't good enough that the results look damn sweet, but they have to look damn sweet while doing what the agency approved in the boards. It's all about control, making the sim do what you need it to. And that's what this course is about. These lessons will go thru a range of common needs in production and teach you how to control the simulations. Along the way we'll also nail most of the common problems that artists run into with RealFlow.

Lynda.com – After Effects Apprentice 11: 3D Space
Duration: | 03h 22m | Released on:10/19/2011 | Exercise files:Yes | 1.8GB
Genre:E-learning
 

This installment of the After Effects Apprentice series introduces 3D space in After Effects. Authors Chris and Trish Meyer highlight key design considerations for working in 3D and provide step-by-step instructions for enhancing a scene with 3D lights and cameras. The course explores integration between Photoshop and After Effects, including modeling 3D objects with Repoussé extrusions and creating dimensional still images, and offers tips on using the different Axis Modes and maintaining maximum quality in 3D. Exercise files accompany the course.

Autodesk Showcase 2012 offers product designers, engineers and marketing professionals the ability to transform digital prototypes into highly realistic imagery and immersive, interactive presentations.You can evaluate designs in detail and in context, explore alternatives in real time and communicate the story of your design ? all with ease. Showcase eliminates the need for physical prototypes to convey design intent, enabling more economical, efficient review processes in which teams can make better informed decisions.
