John, Also Please Consider this: Ok Here's the Official Posting of our 3D Studio Conference and Seminars. Coming up August 29th, 30th and 31st. The Seminars: Steven Elliott co-author of "Inside 3D Studio" who also taught at Autodesk University last year will be out instructor. We'll be offering a Menu approach, this way you may sign up for all three days or for just the days that you want: Monday Aug. 29th 9:00am-4:00pm (Break for Lunch) Day 1: Lofting and Modeling Tips and Techniques. This class focuses on modeling techniques primarily used in the Shaper/Lofter modules with some infromation provided on face and vertex editing in the 3D Editor. Issues to be covered include; the creation of efficient models through the use of Steps and Refine; complex lofting paths, deformation grids; editing and welding vertices; and detaching and attaching faces. Day 2: Mapping Techniques for Creating Realistic Materials. this class looks at advanced materials creation to avoid that "computer look" when rendering your scenes. A lot of time will be spent on exploring the use of map masks and combining multiple maps within a single material. Creating effects such as grime, rust, smudges, and composite materials through the use of multiple maps and masks will be presented. Day 3: Keyframing for Quality Motion. This Class studies the design of motion in the keyframer and how to plan for and simulate realistic effects. Traditional concepts such as anticipation, follow-through, and secondary motion will be explored. Examples of these condepts include vibration and collision effects, takes, double takes, the effects of weight and inertia, and basic character animation. Where: The "Bordini Center" Located at Fox Valley Technical College, 1825 North Bluemound Drive, Appleton, Wisconsin 54913-2277. During Classes each student will be provided with his own Professional Graphics Workstation. The Class rooms are separate from the Conference and Exhibits room that is also taking place. In addition to your own comfortable Workstation the instructor has the use of a wall sized rear projection screen for computer graphics display as well as VCR Audio and Video and slide usage. You will be working with the Latest releas of 3D Studio Release 3. Cost: Classes are priced at $200 per day per student.
