This two-CD set is the first part of Bill Young's multi-part magnum opus on using materials in Animation:Master. In volume 1, Bill takes you through all the basic operations of editing materials, with comprehensive demonstrations of each A:M materials feature, and works step-by-step through several basic tutorials. The advanced tutorials in Volume 2 build on the skills learned in volume 1. The tightly edited, crystal-clear video tutorials are in 1024 x 768, 15fps QuickTime. Associated project files are grouped with each tutorial video, so you can follow along using Bill own files. We also include a free utility, NodeCloner, that enables A:M users to cut and paste entire material node hierarchies. Topics covered: * Fundamentals of attributes * Light and surface color * Working with nodes * Using combiners * Using restrictors * Layering methods * Creating a smiley face * Complex patterns * Old Glory * Cloth surfaces * Advanced organic surfaces ______________________________________________________ "Just got the Bill Young's A:M Mastering Materials CDs and they are great. My head is still spinning! :)" -- Somboun Souannhaphanh, animator "Been watching your materials CDs, Bill. They're awesome. I've seen some of your other tutorials (banana and waves leap out) and have longed for an overview. You make it look too easy. You're also quite articulate, which is really helpful. Keep up the great work!" --Christopher Mackay, Technical Director, Tantramar Interactive Inc "It is great and the quality is wonderful." --Tim Elston, www.plasmadyne.com |
