Taught by Sean Devereaux, this course will get you up and running on version 4.7 of The Foundry's Nuke compositing software. The software will be available over the VPN to fxphd posgrads for non-commercial use (OSX, Linux, and Windows versions).
Tim Clapham returns with a brand new course aimed at motion graphic designers and animators. This term, it’s a bit of a departure from Clapham’s previous typical course structure as he will be taking you through the development and animation of a channel ident from the initial concept stage, right through to the final rendering and delivery part of the process.
Taught by Sean Devereaux, this new introductory course will expand upon the Foundry Nuke tutorials produced by fxphd. Nuke version 6.1 software will be available over the VPN to fxphd postgrads for non-commercial use (OSX, Linux, and Windows versions). Devereaux has pushed pixels on over 25 feature films and 50 commercials. He is currently a vfx supervisor at ZERO VFX in Boston.
The course goes into the techniques used in doing visual effects work with 3DS Max and its plugins – Thinking Particles, Rayfire, and FumeFX. Coming from a feature film production background, the focus is on quality and efficiency. It is a holistic view of the process – from planning, through fragmentation, rigid bodies, particles, fire/smoke, down to management and assembly.
This course aims to provide a basis for Maths for the Artist that says “If I’d known Maths would have been central to effects and animation I would have paid attention in school!” Mike Seymour works through the major areas of maths that are useful to understand for visual effects and animation.
