Digital Tutors – mental ray Production Shaders in Maya
English | RMVB | RV40 776×640 | MP3 64 Kbps | RS & HF | 219 MB
Genre: Video Training

In this course we will learn how the mental ray Production Shaders can be used to take our Maya renders to a new level of realism and efficiency.

Topics include rendering instantaneous motion blur using the mip_motionblur node, using the mip_card_opacity node to render accurate depth and normal passes, re-rendering portions of our images using the mip_render_subset node, compositing our 3D objects into live-action environments using the mip_cameramap, mip_matteshadow, and mip_mirrorball nodes, as well as many other mental ray Production Shaders found within Maya. more…

If you’re into Sci-Fi creatures then this tutorial is right up your alley. We begin this project by setting up image planes using a side and front view of our creature. Next we will create Nurbs primitives to block out the correct shape and proportion of the entire body. Once the beast is blocked out we will refine the shapes in Nurbs and then convert them to Polygons to add geometry for more precise shaping. When the creature has its basic geometry we will then convert to Sub-d’s to start pulling out the details. Some of the tools we will cover are split polygon, extrude edge/face and sculpt polygon. more…

Simply Maya – Orc Head – Lip Sync/ Tutorial
With Kurt Boutilier/ 485 MB ISO

The Orc lip Sync is the follow-up tutorial to the Orc Head modeling and texturing sections. In this tutorial you will learn everything you need to bring them to life by getting him talking and moving around. We will start off using our textured Orc head and learn how to create blendshapes of different expressions, vowels and consonants. Once we have all the blendshapes complete we will move into tools such as set driven key which will allow us to have parts like the teeth move with the blendshapes instead of key framing them alone.

With the setup of our character complete we will import a sound file into Maya and start the animation process. We will be using tools called key selected and auto key. After our animation is done the final step is to clean up the keys a bit more using the graph editor to get the animation smooother as well as go through the option to render out your project.
