In this demonstration Ryan Hawkins explains how he uses photographs to create concept art for production, through five unique examples. Ryan discusses the speed advantages of using photographs versus painting while sharing his techniques for properly blending images so that they integrate with each other seamlessly. A wide variety of Photoshop tools are utilized in his workflow with an emphasis on lighting and efficiency. Ryan’s workflow comes

In this course, we will create a professional next gen-game environment using state of the art tools & resources

In this course I will show you my whole process to create a current gen PBR character for games. This course cover every single step from sculpting to the final render inside of Blender realtime engine EEVEE.

Rigging plays a very important role in both the gaming and film industry. A bad rig can make production a real nightmare while a good rig can save you a lot of time and allow you to achieve more with your characters and models. Unfortunately this is often bypassed as most 3D artists are quickly discouraged or intimidated by rigging. This course is designed to help you overcome this barrier and take your rigging skills to the next level.

In this course, students learn the fundamental workflows and approaches for creating a wide range of dynamic effects for real-time game environments. Students will learn essential methods for efficiency and optimization of visual effects to be used in a video game. It will feature different types of effects for different markets: first-person shooters, 3D action games, MOBAs, mobile games, etc.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to create proper face topology from a 3D scan data head that is rigging/animation friendly with modeling techniques that are used in a professional production environment.

This course will demonstrate a practical approach to in-game/real-time lighting within the context of a production pipeline. We will be working in Unreal Engine, as it is an easily accessible platform, but the workflow and techniques will be presented in as much of a software-agnostic format as possible. This is because many studios use either proprietary or heavily modified engines that are unique or exclusive to that studio's pipeline. These

This training was designed to show what it’s like for an FX Artist inside a CG Pipeline. With a directory structure based off working industry pipelines, you’ll learn how to manage and organize your project so you’re ready for a studio pipeline.

In this training series, 3D Artist Robby Branham goes through fundamental and advanced multi-pass rendering and compositing techniques using Maya, VRay and Nuke. Theses tutorials will demonstrate how to gain more control over the rendering and compositing process to dramatically speed up workflows and give users greater artistic control. Production techniques include how to streamline the render layer, render pass, and compositing trees setups.
