Hi, I'm Topher nice to meet you. » andrew kramer http://toe-fur.com Toe Fur Productions Wed, 10 Feb 2010 00:21:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 en hourly 1 New Videocopilot DVD Coming Out! http://toe-fur.com/2008/05/12/new-videocopilot-dvd-coming-out/ http://toe-fur.com/2008/05/12/new-videocopilot-dvd-coming-out/#comments Mon, 12 May 2008 17:11:56 +0000 Topher http://topherthevideoguy.wordpress.com/?p=15 So I checked Videocopilot.net this morning… and I saw the new cover for the training DVD they are releasing May 20th! Here it is:

THE BULLET

Here is the information that they released on the product so far:

This new DVD will take you from your favorite 3D program to After Effects and back, including compositing multi-pass renders and importing camera data.

On the AE side we will be covering advanced compositing techniques including color correction, particle effects and 3d displacement mapping. Most of all we will be covering workflow management and exploring the best ways to manage assets and media. No more, saving everything to the desktop.

So yeah, needless to say I am stoked… seeing as I just began an interest in C4D this is gonna be great.

If you wanna make some killer stuff like you see in movies… this is the place to do it. Andrew Kramer really shows you how versatile After Effects really is.

John Dickinson pretty much is one of the best I have seen at teaching how Zaxwerks plugins really work and covers the basics in his free tutorial section… also check out his Making It Look Great Series… damn. New ones are coming out in a week!

This has everything on ANYTHING you need to know… just peruse.

Those are my faves, but there is also:

http://www.cineversity.com/Index.asp for C4D Resources
http://aefreemart.com/ for tons of free AE stuff
http://maltaannon.com/ more AE tutorials
http://www.ayatoweb.com/ae_tips_e.html more AE tutorials
http://generalspecialist.com/2007/10/cinema-4d-resources.asp a link to MORE C4D resources (I’m lazy)

So yeah… check those out if you want to get going in either C4D or AE, because seeing what cool stuff you can actually make with just these two apps… makes you feel like you can do ANYTHING.

Oh, and if you live in Tacoma or the surrounding area… remember we are shooting the Kane Hodder video at Supernova Hair and Tattoo at 4pm SHARP on Sunday April 13th 2008!

We are also going to be filming behind the scenes as well for a special I am gonna be editing after the video is done… so if you dont make it into the music video perhaps you will get on the making of!

Toph.
