Modular Building Workflow (50 mins)
In this tutorial we'll be talking about creating modular assets that are on the grid and highly reusable. We'll then be using Photoshop to create a detail texture sheet that we can use to quickly and efficiently map to our modular building set. In 3ds Max we'll discuss working on the grid, setting proper pivot points and quick UV techniques for these types of assets. Lastly, we'll discuss how to rapidly build inside UDK using grid snaps and a handful of meshes.

CINEMA 4D R12 Essential Training with Rob Garrott introduces artists to the CINEMA 4D workflow, using CINEMA 4D as an important part of a toolset that includes Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, and Illustrator. The course explains the key foundational concepts, such as polygons, textures, and rays, that are crucial to understanding exactly how this 3D application functions. It also includes practical techniques for creating, selecting, and transforming objects, working with splines, polygonal modeling, and adding materials, lighting, and camera views for a fully realized 3D image. Exercise files are included with the course.

This alarming program reveals the daily battle between the Internet’s outlaws and the hackers who oppose them by warding off system attacks, training IT professionals and police officers, and watching cyberspace for signs of imminent infowar. Through interviews with frontline personnel from the Department of Defense, NYPD’s computer crime squad, private detective firm Kroll Associates, X-Force Threat Analysis Service, and several notorious crackers, the program provides penetrating insights into the millions of hack attacks that occur annually in the U.S.—including one that affected the phone bills of millions and another that left confidential details of the B-1 stealth bomber in the hands of teenagers. The liabilities of wireless networks, the Code Red worm, and online movie piracy are also discussed. A Discovery Channel Production.

This brand new 2010 DVD features 64 different bite-sized video lessons in leadership from award-winning speaker Jim Sullivan.

Mental Ray Importons and Irradiance Particles rendering algorithm, is a novel approach to compute global illumination based on importance sampling, which tends to converge much faster to a desirable quality than the existing solutions like global illumination photon tracing combined with final gathering. Everybody seems to agree that this Mental Ray rendering algorithm, represent the future of 3d Rendering and is still in the Optimization Phase. In this tutorial I have explained a few different approach \"workflows\" to present the user with more choices in terms of light mood and render times output.
