Fxphd  After Effects 
Broadcast Design DVD
Fxphd  After Effects Broadcast Design DVD | 1.25GB

This course is one of the most popular ones we’ve ever run at fxphd, and we’re excited to be presenting an encore presentation of the offering. Tim Clapham, one of our most popular profs at fxphd, will be running the course.

Class 1: Taking a client storyboard through to the design stages and then building the project in After Effects, creating an infinite type zoom with vector artwork, incorporating client changes and then preparing the file for output
Class 2: A look into Particle systems available in After Effects, their features and some examples. Creation of a 5 second animation using some of the particle systems discussed, and a look at creating fake 3D reflections and building a simple camera rig
Class 3: An exploration of some of the features of Trapcode Particular. This is a project based class where we look at using animated custom particles, attaching particles to lights, using expressions and creating motion paths for the particles
Class 4: This lesson looks at techniques for cutting up bitmap images and animating them, including using expressions to make a walk cycle
Class 5: Exploring 3D multipass rendering, and how to use them in After Effects. First a brief explanation of the types of passes that can be output from most 3D applications. Then a look at some real world examples. Finally a look at using 3D passes with Trapcode Form and Particular
Class 6: Part 1 of 2. In this class we will build a 5 second bumper/ promo for a TV show. We’ll track some camera motion to add a handheld feel to the AE camera. Then we’ll take this and animate some moves in 3D, adding in copy and some extra elements
Class 7: Part 2 of 2. In this class we finish building a 5 second bumper/ promo for a TV show
Class 8: Part 1 of 3. We will look at some methods of using 3D renders and exported data in our After Effects comps. Taking multipass renders and enhancing them. Using the camera data from the 3D application to match our AE 3D layers to the 3D render. Also, pasting multiple paths into shape layers, animating shape layers and adding effects
Class 9: Part 2 of 3. In this class we continue building the project we started last week. We look at using mattes combined with continually rasterising layers and shape layers to draw on a logo
Class 10: Part 3 of 3. In this class we finish building the no logo project. We composite a 3D render onto After Effects 3D layers. Add in some extra details and finally prepare the animation for final output, looking at correcting unsafe colours

Digital Tutors - Advanced Compositing Workflows with Maya and After Effects
English | WMV3 792x656 | MP3 64 Kbps | 1.32 GB
Genre: eLearning
In this series of lessons, we will be taking you through the process of rendering your Maya scene into multiple passes, and using some advanced techniques for compositing these passes using Toxik.

We will dedicate the first portion of this course to using Render Passes in Maya to separate various elements of our scene at render time. We'll use mental ray's render passes, contribution maps, custom framebuffers, and render layers to create the necessary render passes for our scene. In the second portion of this course we will begin with some quick compositing similar to our Compositing 3D Renders in After Effects course, but we will quickly get into more advanced topics such as basic and advanced Depth-of-Field, Proxies, spot paint fixing and chromatic aberration.


Lesson Outline

1. Introduction and Project Overview
2. Preparing Maya scene for multi-pass rendering
3. Creating Contribution Maps for multi-pass rendering
4. Setting up render passes in mental ray
5. Using Custom Color Buffers to render specialized passes
6. Creating new Render Layers and using Layer Overrides
7. Importing our render passes and creating Proxies
8. Using Blending Modes to composite our ant
9. Color Correcting various passes with effects and masks
10. Creating a Lightwrap to tie the Foreground to the Background
11. Tweaking our Matte to Remove a Black Outline
12. Painting our Matte image to fix issues with the feet
13. Setting up a Basic Depth-of-Field effect using the Depth pass and Color Correct
14. Adding to our Depth-of-Field with another Blur Effect
15. Adding Depth-of-Field to the background
16. Fixing haloing by extending the Depth with a basic Minimax
17. Advanced Minimax Layering to correctly extend the Depth
18. Using an Expression to simplify the Minimax layering
19. Fixing the depth matte and the ant matte to remove DOF errors
20. Adding Chromatic Aberration to our image
21. Adding and Tweaking Grain for that final level of detail

CINEMA 4D and After Effects Integration was created and produced by Trish and Chris Meyer. We are honored to host their material in the lynda.com Online Training Library. Chris Meyer—a long-time user of both programs—explains how to move 3D worlds from Maxon's CINEMA 4D into Adobe's After Effects and add additional 3D elements that blend perfectly. Chris shows how to transfer 3D cameras, lights, and position data from CINEMA 4D to After Effects; create track mattes to composite new elements into the middle of a scene; and take advantage of multi-pass rendering to quickly remix and even recolor lights, shadows, reflections, and more. Paced comfortably for beginners, this course also reveals numerous advanced tricks and techniques, such as the use of blending modes and how to cast shadows from new 3D layers in After Effects onto rendered 3D elements from CINEMA 4D. Exercise files accompany this course.
