By | free, Training | No Comments
I was recently asked if it was possible to add some depth to a photo, using only photoshop and here's the answer.

FUSION | Sliding text reveal tutorial

By | film, free, fusion | No Comments
https://youtu.be/m18z8JniQF0 Hi everybody. I was recently asked how to achieve a sliding text reveal in Fusion. This is a question I get a fair bit as it's a common task, so here is a video showing a couple of simple methods. One shows how to use the most basic text controls to animate, while the other uses animated polygonal masks. This is unedited video so you get to see me mess up too, something I think it's important to keep in. If you have any more tutorial requests or topics you'd like me to talk about let me know in...

Fusion 8 tutorial: 3D fog

By | C4D, free, fusion, Training | No Comments
Hi all, I get a lot of tutorial requests and in the last few weeks a good few people have been asking me to cover 3d fog in Fusion, so I decided to sit down and quickly record one. I start off in C4D putting together a really simple scene, so you can see that imported files work just as well as native fusion objects. Then, in fusion, I show how to set things up and get your fog in place. It's a very basic video but gets you started and shows how the nodes link up. If you would...

By | C4D, film, free, Training | No Comments
This series is all about getting back to basics. If you are new to 3D or cinema 4D then it's a great place to start, as it shows you how to get the most out of a few simple tools. This second video introduces the spline tools and I go through four methods of creating geometry using splines. This is a really quick way to model certain things and in some cases the only real way. Also a huge thanks to my patreon supporters: James, Juan, Mohammad and Peter. Your support means the world to me! For more info and...
