Let's do this! I am ready to get jump head first into the most comprehensive introductory course online for FumeFX for Maya! I want to learn to create fire, smoke, explosions, and take my FX to the next level with the #1 fluids tool out there, the same tool used in pretty much every big Hollyood blockbuster to create all of the mind blowing visual effects seen on the big screen!
I’m ready, and willing to make the commitment to myself to not just buy another one of those training DVD’s and skim through it. But thoroughly go through the fundamental curriculum supplied, but also apply it and continue to apply it and watch it over and over again until it SINKS IN! I want to take what I know about visual effects, whether I’m a beginner in this area, or a seasoned veteran, and expand my knowledge into mastering FumeFX and mastering VFX inside of Maya!
I know there are all the advanced subjects also supplied on this DVD as a bonus, such as the BONUS Effectors videos, and also the retiming, post processing, optimizations and Wavelet turbulence subjects and a whole heap of other cool videos I will only watch once I have gone through all of the core videos first!
And when I’m done watching this video for the 100th time and I now know all there is to know about FumeFX, and creating amazing mind blowing FX in Maya! I plan on staying in touch with Allan McKay throughout all of this, I understand that he will be sending additional videos and other cool content and personally staying touch through my journey and helping me personally better myself and expand my skillset with FumeFX Maya Genesis! |
