Particles & SFX Fundamental & Advanced Level

Particles are used in 3d software to produce simulations of thousands of tiny objects that need to act in a dynamic manner. With particles its possible to simulate snow, smoke, fire, sparks and plasma. 3dsmax offers a large range of particles systems, from the standard Particle Flow, to Cebas's Thinking Particles.

We currently offer a five DVD series on 3dsmax's Particle Flow and an advanced level, three DVD series on Afterburn (a volumetric smoke and fluid renderer for 3dsmax).

Afterburn Masters 1: Afterburn Fundamentals
Afterburn Masters 1: Afterburn Fundamentals

CODE: CGAFTBURN1

This DVD introduces Sitni Sati’s 3dsmax volumetric particle rendering system, Afterburn to the advanced level Particle Flow user. Allan gives you an overview of the Raymarching technology behind the system and goes on to guide you through the user interface and a number of practical examples that demonstrate the myriad of uses Afterburn can be put too.

Afterburn Masters 2: Fireball
Afterburn Masters 2: Fireball

CODE: CGAFTBURN2

In this DVD Allan McKay takes you through the real world scenario of creating a huge fireball bursting down the passenger aisle of a commercial jet. The tutorial covers such topics as tackling the creation of the various effect elements, including a Birth Script Operator to facilitate the fireball ripping chairs from their bases as it tears through the aircraft.

Afterburn Masters 3: Airstrike
Afterburn Masters 3: Airstrike

CODE: CGAFTBURN3

In this DVD Allan tackles a real world production scenario using a highly procedural workflow. He demonstrates how to use a combination of Particle Flow and Afterburn to form a flow that creates an air strike by a squadron of bomber jets. Each jet drops a bomb and this triggers a chain of events that leads to a number of effects that cascade from the original bomb release.

Particle Flow Fundamentals 5: Practical Examples
Particle Flow Fundamentals 5: Practical Examples

CODE: CGPAFLFUND5

Practical Examples concludes our Particle Flow Fundamentals series with an in depth look at nine diverse real world effects. We look at how to approach each example in the most efficient manner, how different flow topologies can be used to tackle different effect problems. How materials can be used to produce animated effects, and how animated meshes can be instanced into our flows to help in realising our compelling series of effects.
