Inhalt: Explore the world of modeling and texturing game props and assets in Autodesk 3ds Max. Author Adam Crespi demonstrates how to create both small and large props, from tools to shipping containers. The course begins with cloning and instancing objects for ease of modeling and unwrapping, and segues into multiple methods of unwrapping and painting texture by hand in Adobe Photoshop. Adam looks at various plug-ins that assist with normal map generation as well as sculpting in Mudbox, a digital sculpting application that can add realism and detail to your models. Finally, the course shows how to add lights to a scene and preview the objects in-game. Note: A familiarity of basic modeling and unwrapping techniques in 3ds Max and a working knowledge of Photoshop will help you get the most out of this course. Umfang: 06:05:15.00

First you'll create the base materials for three different types of brick-water-struck, sand-struck, and wire-cut brick-all of which have a distinctive look. Next, you'll lay out the bond pattern and add color variations, and then build a grayscale version of the pattern to convert to a normal map for use in almost any 3D modeling program. Finally, Adam shows how to put your textures to work, modeling and mapping a brick wall and arch in Maya. Umfang: 01:29:40.00
Inhalt: Learn to design and model a city from almost any era, in Autodesk 3ds Max. After assessing the conditions, architecture, and boundaries of the city, Adam Crespi diagrams its evolution, ensuring the digital cityscape exhibits a growth pattern and layout like any of its real-world counterparts. Then he designs the basic structure and components of the city in Adobe Illustrator, generating reusable symbols to represent trees, lights, and buildings. With the plan in hand, Adam dives into 3ds Max, creating Proxy objects as he lays out the city to scale. Each element is then set up as a reference object and duplicated throughout the scene, using containers, Alembic caches, and mental ray Proxy objects. The final chapter shows you how to add skies and other matte-painting backgrounds to your views, and includes a real-world example of cityscape modeling with a moving camera: a project simulating the movement of a crane on a studio backlot.

Adam also includes a bonus movie featuring a real-world example project: a simulation of a crane moving on a studio backlot. Umfang: 03:02:25.00
Inhalt: Used in everything from the Pantheon to modern buildings like the Salk Institute, concrete is all around us, which means it makes its way into many architectural designs and 3D scenes. If you need to generate objects made of concrete for your next 3D project, start here! This course takes you through all the steps for creating concrete textures, beginning in Photoshop, where Adam Crespi shows how to create form ties and scoring patterns, generate bubble holes and voids, and add variation and wear using custom brushes. Then he explains how to create normal and occlusion maps, and brings the concrete texture into Maya, where he links it to a poured concrete material and maps the concrete to flow around the walls of a structure. Interested in creating other kinds of textures, such as wood grain or metal? Check out other courses in our Creating Textures series. Umfang: 01:06:05.00
Inhalt: This course is a practical guide to constructing 3D buildings that can be used to populate video game environments. Author Adam Crespi starts with a gas station taken from a photograph-retrieving measurements and dimensions with modular blocking and planning techniques in Adobe Photoshop-and then re-creates the building in Maya with polygonal modeling and advanced texturing techniques. The course shows how to model elements such as walls, doors, and roofs, including stacking UVs on a texture sheet, and also sheds light on simulating real-world details like dirt, wear, and grime, using ambient occlusion and normal baking in a high- to low-poly workflow. The final chapter shows how to export the model to the Unity gaming engine for final cleanup and rendering. Umfang: 05:10:46.00
Inhalt: Learn how to mimic the look of granite and terrazzo, two high-end materials for countertops and flooring, using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Join Adam Crespi as he generates the base slab, colors the stone, and paints in character like grain, figuring, and strata. Then he shows how to assemble a medallion to take into Maya (or the 3D program of your choice). There he links the texture to materials and adds variance to the reflections so that the texture looks more realistic when applied to an architectural model or other 3D design. Find more installments in this series-on textures like slate, concrete, and brick-on Adam's author page. Umfang: 00:59:57.00

Inhalt: Make your roofing and siding look more realistic with a custom shingle texture. In this course, Adam Crespi helps you build asphalt shingles in a variety of bond patterns and put the texture to work in the 3D modeling program of your choice. You'll start by laying out the pattern in Illustrator, and then adding color, texture, and gradients that mimic the look of slope and overlap, with Photoshop. Then Adam will show you how to apply the texture in 3ds Max and map a sample roof and ridges. Umfang: 00:57:46.00
Inhalt: Slate is a popular design choice for modern flooring and roofs, but getting an accurate slate texture out of the box for your models can be hard. With this installment of Creating Textures, you can build a custom slate texture in Photoshop and put it to work in the 3D modeling program of your choice. Adam Crespi begins the course by creating the base structure, and then layering in the color variation that occurs naturally in slate. He then cuts out roof and floor tiles to take into 3ds Max. There he links the texture to materials and adds the organic rough edges that gives slate its distinctive look. Combine this technique with the wood and metal cladding courses for all your interior and exterior modeling needs! Umfang: 01:05:25.00
Inhalt: Sometimes you need practical examples to make the theoretical concrete. In these case studies, Adam Crespi shows how to create four distinct (and highly realistic) textures-concrete blocks, bamboo flooring, a woven rug, and a wood veneer-and link them to materials in Maya. These texturing tutorials will allow you to follow his exact steps, and apply variations to build your own interesting effects. Umfang: 01:03:16.00
Inhalt: Creating Textures shows you how to build custom textures in Photoshop and put them to work in 3D modeling programs. In this installment, author Adam Crespi takes you through the steps needed to create realistic wood patterns. He begins in Photoshop, creating a wood texture, complete with grain, color variation, knots, whorls, and loops, which he then overlays on planks for wood flooring. He also "ages" the texture for use with antique furniture. In the second part of the course, Adam links the texture to a 3ds Max material and applies the material, along with some diffuse, specular, and normal maps-for shine and reflectivity-to a 3D scene.

Inhalt: Producing great motion graphics requires a great toolset. Blackmagic Design Fusion provides a rich, full-featured compositing environment to bring together video footage, 3D animation, and graphics, text, and photos in a fully three-dimensional space. And best of all, the non-Studio version is completely free. In this course, Adam Crespi shows how to create an identity bumper in Studio 8 by compositing and animating a variety of assets. Starting with the raw elements, he assembles a composition and animates a camera in the scene. From there, he adds lights, particles, a painted logo, and post effects, and then renders the final bumper. Each step of the process is rich with object lessons that are applicable to the variations that a compositor will face in the real world. Umfang: 03:53:41.00
