Anyone who decides to try his hand at 3D-modeling and animation, very quickly faced with a choice of a suitable graphics package. The problem looms mighty big fellow, familiarly patting on the shoulder, calloused hand, confidently looks into his eyes and an ingratiating asked: "Well, my friend, whom we choose?" The modern market programs, three-dimensional modeling and animation offers a fairly wide range of similar products. Those who wish to become mastodons 3D-pen definitely prefer 3DS Max or Maya: two or three years of practice, and an animated Olympus often submits. But first the relation efforts and the result is clearly not in favor of the modeler.

Luxology's Modo is one of the newer tools in the CG, Design and Architectural visualization world, but has quickly gained a wide user base. Modo is a very powerful polygonal and subdivision modeler that has a great texture painting and sculpting module, object animation tools and a superb renderer, all under a very intuitive and user-friendly interface. This DVD, with over six hours of material, explores the workflow and features in Modo. Jonathan starts out introducing the user interface and proceeds with how to efficiently create and organize scenes. The viewer can follow along as a scene is created and developed through modeling, manipulation, shader creation and setup for animation and rendering among other topics.

Professor: Daniel Smith
Taught by Daniel Smith, this intermediate level class builds upon the Nuk203 course and takes stereoscopic techniques to the next level. We will be looking at Nuke 6.2 and using its new tools like Point Cloud generator, Dope Sheet, and Modeler tools to enhance stereo production. We will address the significant changes that have happened to Ocula and delve deeper into the robust tool.

In LightWave 10 Essential Training, author Dan Ablan provides thorough, step-by-step instructions on building 3D models, scenes, and animations in LightWave 10. Beginning with a tour of the interface and LightWave's two main programs, Modeler and Layout, the course covers key concepts such as building models from basic polygonal shapes, assigning textures, and employing lights and 3D cameras to build real world scenes. Also included are tutorials explaining particle animation, dynamics, and bones. Exercise files accompany the course.

ArCon - Professional program for designing country houses and interior design. With it you can create an elaborated house designs and plans of the premises, as well as their three-dimensional models.
Arcon is one of the rare programs, planners in the field of architecture and design, which already use a lot of thousands of builders, of course, architects and designers, we can not forget about the realtor, and of course just an amateur. Using the software Arcon home and you become a modeler, and shtukaturschikom, and of course designer. And you should not walk into a supermarket in search of suitable tools and paints.
