Gnomon Workshop - Character Modeling for Production

In this DVD, Ian shows you the tools and techniques he uses to quickly create a full character model in 3ds Max, leading you through the basic character production pipeline used at Blur Studio. He takes you through the process of building clean geometry using Max's built-in toolset as well as using the PolyBoost plugin. Ian shows how to easily enhance objects with ZBrush, and how to quickly find the form and detail of your character. From there he demonstrates how to bring the geometry back into Max to make it animation friendly by retopologizing. After the model is finished, Ian covers how to set up hair using Hair FX as well as how to set up lights, cameras and a simple rig using Biped to pose and render the character. Finally, using Adobe Photoshop®, Ian discusses how to present the character in a professional manner. This DVD is intended for artists with a basic understanding of polygon modeling in Max, but is useful to anyone regardless of skill level or software. In this DVD Ian uses: Max, PolyBoost, ZBrush, BodyPaint and Adobe Photoshop®.



"Ian has been a trailblazer here at Blur from the moment he arrived, testing out new techniques and tools, eager to fill his bag o' tricks up as quickly as possible. Here at Blur it's not only important to create great looking characters, but to do them quickly and efficiently and Ian pioneered many of the the techniques we use that improve both the quality and the efficiency of every character we create here at Blur."
