Ya its worth buying. Its awesome. It lets you do all kinds of stuff that would otherwise be impossible or very hard to replicate in maya.Originally posted by magicsy
is Zbrush worth buying? i mean is it better or easier than adobe?
Oh, yeah this sounds REALLY great for me!!!!Originally posted by mtmckinley
it probably depends on which industry you're wanting to get in... games? We LIKE the big robots and super heroes, sci-fi vehicles, guns, monsters, etc. on a reel. Just so long as they are original (ie... not ANOTHER X-Wing...).
After all, in games, more often then not, that's the stuff we're making.

. .There's also body tracking which is where we need to place geometry that is animated to follow an actor. Say for example we wanted to add wings to a character we need to body track some geo in there so we can place the wings "behind" the live action actor (without rotoscoping).

New challenge should go up soon.
OK, I knew what tracking was but wondered if it was something else in this case because it didn't seem like an entry job.Originally posted by Pure_Morning
tracking is when they take the live action plates that have been filmed and they create the maya cameras that mimick what was filmed.

render support is exactly what it says on the tin, it's making sure the renders go through on the farm. It's shift work and it's not an easy job. Good for techy people and people that want to get shouted at a lot these guys do a thankless task but they're essential to the productions.
The average length of time in these positions is 9months to a year generally
