Snapdragon - The Complete Motion Graphics Project By Carey Smith

"In this comprehensive video series, we take a professional motion graphics project all the way from conception to execution to finishing to after-party, to after-after party where everyone’s wwwwasted but refuses to go home and that gross couple in the corner will NOT stop making out. In other words, this beast is huge, and bidding currently starts at less than the price of a KFC Family Bucket Meal, and you won't even get stomach cramps!

What you WILL get is a highly illustrated, in-depth look at the entire creative process of a real-world project for a large client, and I'll show you the dirty guts of visual storytelling, branding, design, you name it, all while putting together a rad standalone piece that you can later tear apart like the animal you are."

This tutorial teaches how to create dynamic and exciting combat animations in a step-by-step method that is used by many professional animators. The core foundations of combat are covered such as strong posing, aggressive timing and appeal. Riot Games’ Senior Animator Jason Shum shares his process from the initial idea stage to final polish. He begins with an introduction to the Gnomon Bounty Hunter rig in Maya, followed by a lecture on the concepts of successful combat including personality, energy and flow. He then works through generating a good idea and executing it via first, second and polish passes. Students will gain a strong understanding of how to ideate and build a combat animation using a workflow that includes the use of reference, key poses, retiming, breakdown keys and arcs.

In Animation Pipeline in UE4, Chad Mogran will be giving a comprehensive overview of all things animation in Epic’s Unreal 4 Engine. Starting with exporting our character from Maya using the FBX format, we’ll import it into UE4 in such a way that will allow us to share animation blueprints across different characters. Then we’ll go over how to import animations and setting up things like additive aim poses and navigational blend spaces. We will cover the basic concepts of the blueprint scripting system in the Unreal Engine so we can set up our character and then our animation blueprint. We’ll cover how to hook up our character with input from the keyboard and gamepad, connect it to our anim blueprint, and have our character running around the level in the engine. In discussing anim blueprints, we’ll discuss concepts such as applying additive animations and setting up state machines. We’ll add extra features like ik systems, head look-at systems, other procedural animation systems.

We already have this torrent on cgpeers but its size is quite high. I re-encoded it for people who have low-speed connections and now it is less than 4GB. It is the same quality as the original recording.

If this is against the rules, I'll take it down. Enjoy.

Description

Shift your 3D modeling skills into high-gear with this massive, in-depth, Modo Automotive video by cmiVFX. This video is over 15 hours long! Throughout this lengthy tutorial we will go into deep detail about the techniques and aspects of modeling a production-ready car asset. Our Mentor, Mike Jagodzinsky, will cover everything from his simple blockout method to advanced Sub-D modeling techniques. On top of that, he'll walk you through the process of making each piece of this model from separate body panels, to brake lights, to rims and tires. Also, near the end of this tutorial, we will go over added materials as well as added custom touches that will really add to the realism of our model. Get ready for a serious ride.
Chapter Descriptions
Introduction
In this tutorial we will cover efficient modeling techniques to create a production-ready car model. Throughout this tutorial, you will learn how to block in the basic shapes of modeling the body panels, rims, tires and more. We will top it off by setting up materials for the final render scene.
Prepping Reference
To start off we will prepare our reference images to ensure we get a good base to work off of within Modo.
Scene Setup
Within this chapter we will go through setting up our scene. We will bring in the reference images and make sure everything is set to real-world scale.
Modeling Block-Out
Now we can begin to block out our low-poly base mesh for the car body, which will end up being Sub-D in the end. I'll also go over some "do's and don'ts" that you should keep in mind when using this approach.
High-Poly Details
In this chapter we will start modeling all of those great little details. Some of the shape in the body panels will also be further defined.
Modeling Rims
In this chapter I will go over the process I use to model any rim. In this case, we will model a 2015 version for this iconic car.
Modeling Tires
Within this chapter we will learn how to model a high-poly, Sub-D tire. We will also go over the pros and cons of using displacement maps for this task.
Finalizing Modeling
Next we can finalize all the modeling. We will be wrapping up a few areas and getting ready for materials and rendering.
Materials and Rendering
Here I will go over setting up materials so we can get to them. I will also show you how to add a custom hood stripe to add a little punch to the car look. We will wrap up this section by setting the camera and the environment, and then it's off to rendering.
About The Instructor
For the past 6 years, I have been working as a freelance artist specializing in hard surface assets. I've worked with quite a few companies in the past including Strike Anywhere films, Spacejunk Studio, CoreLegal Concepts, and Skullcandy. I have also been involved in creating a few tutorials for 3D artists and beginner courses that cover The Foundry's Mari texturing program which are located in The Foundry's Mari learn section. Last but not least, I have been doing some custom Modo training for Skullcandy lately, helping with various modeling aspects of their pipeline. Recently, I have changed things up a little and have been working at The Digital Animation and Visual Effects School as one of the Modeling and sculpting instructors working with Modo and Maya as well as Sculpting with Zbrush.
