Maya for Games Modeling and Texturing Techniques with Maya and Mudbox

Well-known Maya professional Michael Ingrassia takes readers through his unique style of modeling: Image Based Modeling where efficient realistic models can be created very quickly. Ingrassia's techniques allow modelers to create exact replicas of their concept characters or objects. The techniques presented are very efficient and allow game modelers to quickly build out stand alone props to populate environments and game levels. Presented are tried and true techniques that the author has used successfully in game production for the past 10 years. Most if not all 3D books focus on basic box modeling techniques which are the basis for proper 3D modeling but not the complete solution. In the author's experience students who have learned through the Image Based Modeling brand have quickly excelled into effective modelers. One of the hardest things for any modeler to do is match their model EXACTLY to the concept art or photos they are provided. The insider tips in this book walk artists through this process. Artists begin with basic modeling and advance to a creating a complete scene and set design/game level. Rather than including sporadic models with zero association from to one another each model in the book becomes an integral part of an overall theme realistic in game development today. The accompanying downloadable resources include 8 exclusive video tutorials on advanced Maya techniques as bonus tracks for artists providing invaluable modeling rigging and texturing samples. Also an in-depth video on assembling a Killer Demo Reel showing simple but effective video editing techniques used by the author so that artists can learn how to get their work seen. The book not only teaches effective methodology but provides the user with impressive content for producing effective demo reels and portfolios. Pros and cons of demo reel website and artist representation are given along with insights into the expectations of game studios today. The video tutorials show users the finished product and then run through the process of step by step creation of that particular technique. | Maya for Games Modeling and Texturing Techniques with Maya and Mudbox
