HF | 252MB | Work Files

Professor Gary M. Davis returns with a 3ds Max class focusing on advanced rendering techniques and Mental Ray. This class is for current users of 3ds Max who might be apprehensive about transitioning to (and embracing!) the Mental Ray pipeline. This course will be taught in 3ds Max 9, but the specifics and focus on Mental Ray do carry over to applications including XSI and Maya. The course will collaborate with the other professors who are working on the Zombie shoot.
