Truefire – Corey Congilio’s Solo Factory Texas Blues (2013) [MP4 – FLV, MP3, PDF]
English | Size: 2.03 GB
Category:Dance / Singing / Voice

Music is a language. And just like learning any language, you start by learning sounds, which you use to form words, which you combine into phrases, which you string together to tell stories. Notes, licks, phrases and solos. Simple concept. Up to the ‘string together’ part at least. Taking our hard-earned vocabulary of licks and connecting them seamlessly to form solos is where it starts to get a little tricky for most of us. Corey Congilio’s Solo Factory: Texas Blues will fix that in a hurry. In fact, you’ll be more than just a little amazed at just how easy it is.

What you will learn
In this series of tutorials, we will go through the process for rigging, animating, texturing, rendering, and compositing a morning news opener style motion graphics piece. We start out by creating a camera path that we can arrange our models around for a quick setup and flow of the piece. We learn how to create sweeps that move around our models for added emphasis, and we learn fast ways to get our camera pointing in the right direction along this complex path. After finishing our animations, we move onto briefly discussing our texture workflow. We then begin working in After Effects where we take the piece from looking good, to great, by adding a series of effects and color tweaks. This course is for you if you want to create a motion graphics piece that takes the guess work out of your cameraanimation. By the end of this course, you will have yourvery own finalized motion graphic as well as a new knowledge on the workflow between CINEMA 4D and After Effects.

In this series of tutorials we are going to composite a stylized post-apocalyptic environment shot. We will setup an environment scene in NUKE’s 3D space with our matte painting asset. To bring it to life we will add footage and elements to our shot, and also create atmospherics with NUKE’s particle system. We will venture briefly into After Effects to use the Optical Flares plug-in to create lens flare elements. We will also look at camera effects like bloom, lens distortion, vignette, and chromatic aberration. Finally, I will offer up some tips for finishing off your shot. The main purpose of this tutorial will be to discuss and show some basic compositing workflows, but also look at some specific tips and techniques to help you take an environment or set extension shot from start to finish.

Drawing Essentials

This course covers the use of materials as well as essential skills needed as a prelude to Figure Drawing which Glenn learned at the beginning of his artistic training. He finds that this basic skill set is often missing in the training of artists today. The focus is as much on training the eye as the hand, with development of visual skills as well as how to study independently. Basic concepts in drawing and their application are demonstrated and incorporated into the weekly assignments, using the same basic materials that will be needed for the Figure Drawing courses.These concepts are applicable to any field of artistic endeavor.
