The Afterburn Masters Set brings together the three DVDs of the series to produce the definitive reference for those that want to take their skills with Afterburn to the next level. The series includes Afterburn Fundamentals with its in depth exploration of the Afterburn system and includes many examples of how to achieve real world effects. It moves on in Fireball to explore a production level effect of a fireball blasting down the aisle of a passenger jet, and concludes in Air Strike with a focus on making an effect be as procedural as possible so it can be re-used with ease on new shots, crucial for those on a tight schedule.
This DVD series is ideal for advanced Particle Flow users and for those that wish to learn more about using Afterburn. It is an exploration of Afterburn and its use with Particle Flow, including procedural methods using Particle Flow to achieve complex real world production level effects.
DVD 1: Afterburn Fundamentals
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. Later, he gives a valuable insight into optimisation techniques and the best tricks and approaches to Afterburn's use, that give you an insight into its use for special effects in Film, Television and Games special effects.
DVD 2: Fireball
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. The tutorial then goes on to cover the creation of the various render elements needed for the final effect and culminates in Allan taking you through a test composite to produce a final film quality effects shot.
DVD 3: Air Strike
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. A perfect example of how to push your Particle Flow and Afterburn based effects to a higher level and make your particles truly think for themselves!
