Maya Texturing class: Substance 1

 

Maya Texturing class: Substance 1

In this class we used substance painter to recreate the book textures we previously made in photoshop. like many of my piers I found the process of texturing in substance a lot simpler then photoshop, I have a fair bit of experience using substance painter and because of this I found the tutorial very easy to follow. using the textures Alan had made before as mask's made some of the more time intensive parts of the process none existent as the masks where made ready for us.

Exporting the textures into Maya is easy once you understand the map types and node system of Arnold, this whole session seemed very enjoyable and will be of great use moving forward. Due to substances photoshop - esk layer system I already have ideas on how to use this software to create more stylised effects for my animations.

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.
