This DVD focuses on the relationship
between Maya (or any 3D package), and the wonderful sculpting,
texturing and displacement creation tool that is ZBrush. Meats
discusses the basics of ZBrush, focusing on working efficiently,
moving your work between applications and rendering the results
within your favorite renderer. Various methods of texture map
creation and application are covered, including view port painting
and using the many 2.5D painting tools inside the Projection
Master for real time, detailed texture application. Materials,
color, geometry sculpting and displacements are explained,
along with the methods of using ZBrush as an animated blend
shape (morph target) creator.
4 hours of Lecture.
