CG WORKSHOP presents “EXTERIORS TRAINING” Visualisation training program volume TWO” Duration: 01.07.2011-01.08.2011 - intermediate level (This course requiers basic knowledge about 3dsmax and V ray rendering engine. If you are not sure about your knowledge level please contact us under motyw@motyw.info or use our contact form in support section on CGW site)
INTRODUCTION This training program will focus on architecture visualizations, theory and techniques which understanding will allow you to take your rendering to another level. Program is dedicated to intermediate and semi advanced users of 3ds max and V RAY. Beginners might find very useful tips too (before joining we strongly recommend to watch our tutorials). Lectures with professional photographers will explain what you should expect in the 3d world using the v ray cameras. Also additional information about post processing and connection between real cameras and their parameters with virtual ones. CGW exteriors - combine theory from many areas and will show you the way how to implement advanced techniques in your own scenes. Project files for each lecture will lead you through the process. Also a closed special forum with brand new features will allow to discuss in real time all issues with our tutors. You can also choose to work on your own scenes or to use the provided predefined ones. This training program will expose three different scenes which you will learn how to build and render from scratch! Each student will also receive plenty of models and textures which can be use later on in commercial or personal projects. After the training best artworks will be published in our news section and MOTYW company blog. All data will be available for you one month so you do not have to worry about the terms. Even if you will be absent our forum will remain open 24h every day. You will be able to receive feedback and ask any quastion on private or public channel. We are not offering you just models, presented examples will let you easily understand the techniques and ideas which make renderings unique. WORKFLOW CG WORKSHOP “EXTERIORS TRAINING” consists of 10 days of lectures (over 10 hours HD movies) and 6 days on line practice. Also between the lectures you have our guests and tutors live to your service during “LIVE Chats” every Tuesday and Thursday (4-8pm + 01:00 GMT). You will need only 3 hours daily to gain the fundamental knowledge. If you miss any day you will be able to continue the program by downloading all files and lectures. Last week (25.07.11-01.08.11) is a lifebuoy for those who have missed lectures or practice days . If you would like to come back with quastions concerning lectures or you will find some techniques still not clear or difficult to implement our tutors will help you out and solve all issues.
