Maya Class: Moom spline and the graph editor

In this class we used the spline function and the graph editor to turn our stepped animation into a smooth 3D animation. Once we use the spline to do this we then go into the graph editor to make the motions closer to arcs, thus creating smoother and more believable motion in our 3D models.

Tool Kit 2: Ambient Occlusion

Tool Kit 2: Ambient Occlusion Rendering Ambient Occlusion maps was something I was aware of from first year however this tutorial went into more detail about the shader in Arnold and as such was a really useful tutorial. Not only for the creation of good AO passes but for the knowledge I could potentially use the shader to create different effects because of the versatility of the shader. The end of the tutorial showed us how to use the AO map when composing the image in after effects of photoshop, this is a easy step however at this point a style will be shown as people will pick different intensity's depending on there eye and the effect they want to make.
