This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

ninja tutorial

hi. im very new to maya and have yet to make any model on it because i do not know how. i am very interested in viewing the ninja tutorial because the reason im a learning maya is to make some models for a game that will be human about that detailed. i think i am missing something though because from what i see to watch that tuorial i need to spend 80 dollars on 50 points? how is that reasonable. could someone please explain to me what i am missing because 1 video tutorial is not worth 80 dollars.

I've not watched the Ninja video, but I'd still say that the rate is competitive when you consider the length (over 7 hours) and the amount of detail in the model. Look around at other character modelling DVDs and I think you'll find the rate reasonable in comparsion.

$80 = £42.51

divided by 7hrs ...... (now let me grab my calculator)

thats a decent rate if you ask me user added image

£6 pounds an hour, if you can find quality video instruction for Maya cheaper elsewhere, I'd be surprised.

Bottom line if you don't think its worth it don't buy it.
