thanks~~~~~~~

cool

Thanks Andrew! So glad we speak the same language Hope you feel the urge to make some more. Maybe integrating 3ds max into after effects. That would be awesome. Ok, going to go buy some of your products.....

Maya maya maya maya...thanks anyway....

Ahhh, I hoped it to be C4D but this is cool too. Can't wait to look.

will have to check this out when I get to work.

Hi .. Thank for all teams videocopilot ..

thanks Andrew for your help

u r the best.
tnx u

ey nice 3d studio max tut

hey andrew, its probably the best solution but have you ever looked into Zaxwerks?

Nice tutorial man! I've trawled the 'net for ever looking for good, easy to follow tutorials in Max only for Mr. Kramer to come up trumps. I hope you plan to do more Max tut's in the future. Recently bought Riot Gear, Serious FX and AME. All quality products. Thanks dude!

Thanx for the tutorial... I also USE 3D Studio Max.. Great program! For me the Best!

Thnx... lookin forward 4 the next one!

Greetz Dave (Holland)

Thanks Andrew, it was great. Someone mentioned 'rain effects' in the comments to your last tutorial, I too would love you to do a 'creating a rain storm' tutorial if you could. Great work, I love all your tutorials. Keep it up.

hi andrew i'm very glad to see this cool tutorial because i'm using 3d max and maya also..

welcome back!!

It's tutorial no. 48... but really nice

Okay, so you're going to use 3DS Max for the tuts, but what's your personal 3D program of choice, C4D?

Nice Andrew, very nice - sudden voice from deep lair :) Yes, I admit Ben that you should integrate 3dmax in afterfx

why the hell are u doing aftereffects tutorials with other programms. dude i dont understand u, but its for free so keep doing xD

Fantastic tutorial! I had a demo of 3D MAX and just gave up because no-one out could just give out the basics. Local collage courses where I live for both AE and 3D MAX are really hard to find in the UK so these tuts are a God send! Would it be possible to do a Basic Training DVD for MAX in the same way you have done the Basic After Effects Training DVD? Thanks again!

Yay! You focus on my apps of choice: After Effects and Max! Have you thought about upgrading though? We are up to version 10 (3dsmax 2008) now and it makes life SO much easier!:)

Thank you. Nice to see some basics of 3D.
Making us all very well rounded. By that, I mean...sitting around on our duffs doing all these new tutorials getting fatter :)

great stuff...thanks again.

When Andrew do maya tutorials? He'll be the BEST

Hi Andrew,

I must agree with Ben.

Any chance of doing a tutorial overview of
how to film a model car, plane etc in Max &
then add it to your footage in AE ? Maybe....

Thank you for all your tutorials.... Brilliant !

Hey Andrew, *Congrats* for New born baby girl. Best Wishes mate.

Ok,back to these tutorials - you've been comming out of these fine tutorials so far, but i really would like some in-depth look into rendering out pass-elements from 3ds max scene and how you can take that renders and enhance it in post eg: After effects to save costly production time. Thats one area i don't think you haven't covered if my memory serves me right?

Another thing I like about your tutorials - they're soo close to production quality and very much thought-out and "attractive" tutorial's.

Thanks soo much.

Very nice 3D Tutorials I am very happy you started teaching us 3DS MAX, I have been playing with it when I was younger, but I get bored to wait 10 hours to render something with my pentium 133 that finally didn't look good

I know there lot's of really cool stuff that could be done with the combination of 3DS MAX and AE, so thanks for making all this fun again

Cheers,

3DS max is good choice. You can add some particle tutorials with connection into after effects. For example something like NigthCrawler smoke effect. That would be cool.

YAY! Simple, but awesome as always! Thanks Kramer.

true words spoken "Maya maya maya maya" is the premium graphics software of choice by all 3s houses

Bye the way well done again 10/10

Man this sucks!! I came here for After Effects Tutorials!! . Just a little joke from one of your previous tutorials. Anyway,this is a Good one!!

Eh.. thanks Andrew.. But i though u preferred C4D when it came to 3D.. Sure it will help people;)

very good text thank you Andrew

Thanks. I am definitely interested in picking up some skill in 3d apps. It would be great to see how to do some camera tracking with Boujou or a similar package...

Thanks. I am definitely interested in picking up some skill in 3d apps. It would be great to see how to do some camera tracking with Boujou or a similar package...

Wow ! Amazing tutorial Andrew !! I´ve learned a lot with ur After Fx tutorials and now this !!! i can barely wait to see the next one !!! Thanks a lot !!!!!

Hey man great tutorials love to see some more especialy particle systems brought all your products there great so any one else thinking about bying them do it............... do it now

Wasn't that good, sorry didn't have the flare of your AE stuff. Maybe something that incorporated AE with Max, such as 3d camera matching/tracking would be nice. Ive been using Max for about seven years so maybe thats why i feel this way. I do like most of your tuts but this one seemed phoned in.

It's really cool watching this site grow.
I like the friendly feel it's always had.

Thanks Andrew

Great stuff! So glad you chose 3ds Max.

i hope you do a lot of 3d max tutorials

Im a Maya guy, but glad to see some 3d stuff here too .. but dont forget to throw AE Magic as usual .. Cheers ..

Dear Andrew,

Many thanks for your wonderful tutorials. I work on after effects as a hobby and with the help of your tutorial i have been able to create my own 20 sec commmercial for my own company.

HATTS OFF TO YOU PAL,

really cool. i hope you do a lot of 3d max tutorials.

Thanks

MM.

CINEMA 4D...

It makes so much sense to use C4D considering its intergration with AE....

But thanx for the tut... guess i'm gonna have to start learning 3ds max...

Looks good. I've been trying to decide which program to use when I make the leap to 3D. If you make picking up 3DS Max as easy as you did with After Effects I guess I might have to go with it.

Anyway thanks for the tut, exciting to see you expanding the scope of the site.

BTW - Why keep your mastery of 3D secret for so long? It makes me sick how much you know!!

thanks for this great tutorial...

Great tutorial!!!

This site just keeps on growing.

Video Copilot is my anti-drug.

Nice tutorial but don`t stop making After Effects tutorials pls.

that's easy but with the integratin in after effects u can do stuff and export them in 3DS and with a plugin from zaxwerks proanimator u can play in AF with the camera and lights ... anyway i want to know other ways of 3d studiomax and after effects integration ... but hey thanks u do a great job .. keep it that way

Really good stuff there. Keep up the good work

Thanks Andrew!!! your works are amazing.
Thanks for share

This site is like drugs to me i need my dayly injection. Thank you Andrew

Aww wish it was cinema 4d but you cant please everyone. Thanks dude!

Thanks Andrew, The Tutorial rocks!
I am an After Effects user but as many of us here I also use 3D Max, (I not good at it though), thank you for making this very first Tutorial with 3Dmax, I will be really happy to see more in the future.

Yes, it's a good Idea to integrate MAX with AE, that would be great....


Thanks again//

Yeah, cool whit 3ds max. I have never relly understand that program but if you are going to make tutorials with it so then maby could learn. Thank you Andrew

Thanks Andrew, it's nice to see some 3ds mograph tutorials instead of c4d! Keep it up! ;)

It's very cool, trying to buy C4D.

Very nice!

But now we have png's. So if i import them in AE then you can't do much with it then to show.
You can't fly above it or something.
Or do i miss somethinge here??

Is it possibele to use the extrude text in AE so it is not an image but a real big en thick text?

Graet stuff! And I THOUGHT I knew 3DS Max!

Get those watermelons rolling!

See...you think you are throwing us some measly 1/2, add on tutorial when really this should be #48. You can read the manual all day, but seeing someone actually use the software makes a huge difference. Thanks.

Hey I really like this tutorial and i hope you keep integrating 3dmax and/or other 3d programs into your tutorials. I'm a fish out of water with 3D programs outside of AE and am anxious to learn more because i know they can be an integral part of getting what's in your head into that final render.

I think Video Copilot should be about getting that great end product and that sometimes a great design requires more than one tool. So some people might complain about stepping outside of AE but for me it just makes sense.

you probably expected this, but i thought this site was going to be just for after effects. i think you are doing a great job, but i hope theres more after effect stuff.

keep up the good work

I agree with Giovanni, but thanks for taking your free-time doing stuff for free brother:)

Waiting for your next dvd:)

wOoOow realy it's 3D nice...
hay!what about 74.5 it.s ?

peace

I only wish you chose a 3D app that runs on both mac and pc. Still awesome work... 3D-licious.

bof !!!
Where is AFTER EFFECTS ???????????

another helpful tips....thanx master!

Awesome!!
Will there be any tutorials on 3d tracking in the future, I would really love that.
3Ds Max *YAY* my favourite too.

i'v always wanted to know how to do that 3d text effect!!! thanks AK!! u da man!!

p.s hope ur wife n baby r doin good

haha sick i just got 3DS Max yesterday and all i was thinkning was "I hope Andrew uses 3DS" and what do ya know

Thanks

bloody good job I use 3d max all the time!

suuuuuuuuuuper
i love you because you make 3ds max tuts not c4d
yeeeeeaaaah!!!!!
you are the best

YES

thaaaaaaaaankssss you rooockkk

wow!! another max fan, nice job. but some improvments could have bin done

keep it up. i hope this is just a intro to a tutorial were you teach us to integrate moving 3d meshes inn to oure movies with after effects, like inn the TRANSFORMERS and yeah!! its a chalange....do you acept?

Nice one, again. I can totally see Tony Hawk rolling watermelons down a ramp!

I'd hoped for Cinema 4D, but of course you're the man who makes the decisions, and you've stated your reasons for picking 3ds max.
Will be looking forward for more tutorials taking advantage of 3d programs :)

Oh my God, Taht'S amazing^^ Very cool! Have you recived my mail? "A Mail from the other end of the World". I would regret , if you answer! Phil

great andrew!!!
thanks once more!

Great tutorial
I've had 3DS MAX 9 now for months, but finding it hard to learn stuff from other tutorial sites. Keep up the good work

That was an awesome tutorial:)
Andrew, it would be great if you started greating tutorials for 3Ds max and not only after effects, you will probably attract more people i think:) I hope to see more 3Ds max tutorials since you said you were good at it:D

Yes! 3ds max! Just like you Andrew it's the one 3d app I feel the most at home with, lucky me =)

Thanks Andrew!!! You are the man! Just like Ben, I am glad to know that we speak the same language

Please do more. I also would like to see you integrate 3ds max into after effects and do some cool effects and compositing.

Thanks Again Andrew!

Thakyou very much, I am glad you are heading in the 3d in video direction, that is the only reason I want to learn more 3d to make objects intrgrating it into video. Thanks a million.

Thanks Andrew on this totrials (good lesson)

Great, 3D Max is most welcomed.

Thanks for the awesome tutorial..

maya, maya, maya, maya! Lol Yeah it's good to see 3D studio max again. That's made a lot time now...

Hey there Andrew,

I'm not really farmiliar with 3DSMax but liked the tutorial, maybe make a basic 3dsMax training just like you did with After Effects?

I know this is random, but please pray for me. Im sick. Also, I love Andrews work. It has really inspired me to do better as a film intern.

Show de bola! Parabéns Andrew.

Cool !! More tutorials with

süper olmuÅ

Andrew you're the best!

I use AE mainly because of your great and understandable tutorials and products..
I tried to learn 3DSMAX but it was too difficult for me.. now I can

Very useful for 3dsmax beginners such as me, thanks.

Sweet, being a Max guy recently adding AE to their arsenal (AE learned in LARGE part due to Video Copilot- Thanks!) this is a great watch.

Would love to see some 3D object integration/match moved in After Effects. Great stuff!

Thanks Andrew I am from Poland. Your tutorials are super.I have a question. from where you have some such objects as eg. the rock which flew goes on you. to me for objects on greenscreen. this is Mo the e-mail matiporz@vp.pl to write back

Would love to see some 3D object integration/match moved in After Effects. Great stuff!

Very Cool! Can you show us how to use Caligari Truespace?

Man, you are my hero. Best wishes to you and your family.

very nice tutorial it s
cool
Greetings from Germany

cool Thanks Andrew

Hi Andrew,

great tutorial. Keep those coming along)

Cheers,

Thorsten
www.StrongMocha.com

niceeeeeeeeee ,

Hello andrew your's tutorials are amazing...Please create some tutorial on SOME magic

pretty interesting and surprising tutorial
You talked about exporting camera movement from 3Dmax to AE ... is the opposite possible?

Very nice Andrew. I love your work and have been a long time watcher. I agree that you should integrate 3dsmax into your web site. thanks!!!

~Razzi~

I use Strata 3D CX & this tutorial works great with Strata, well the result is pretty much the same... more general tutorials are deeply appreciated & welcomed!

Yesss, Maya Maya Maya...

very nice!

Cinema 4D.....but good tutorial, 'Drew.

Yeah , really nice with 3dsmax tutorial keep going with that

Glad to see a fellow max user

Very nice, 3ds max is the best next to maya. It was pretty easy tutorial though but great for beginners who aren't known with 3ds max yet.

Pretty nice tut ;)

Later on you could make some tutorials on Particle Flow,which is really impressive option inside 3dsmax.

well, it isn't C4D, but I respect that.. =)

Based on some of your other Particular tutorials, I have animated nulls on splines in C4D and then taken that 3D data into After Effects and used that null for the source position for particular particles. this site is quite nice. good job. =) ... dude more particular tutorials would be nice... nice SK8R reference andrew. lol.

glad i'm learning already in 3ds maxespecially to integrate it into after effects.

Yes! 3ds max! Just like you Andrew it's the one 3d app I feel the most at home with, lucky me =)

Hey andrew! cant you put up the project you did, like you do with the other tutorials, :)

Great tutorial, I would love to see more on this topic.

Peace, Craig T

That is nice...

I've wanted that, now I can go to the PC Lab and play and maybe think about buying a 3D app..

my only thing is.. how do you move around the perspective window like you were? do you just click and drag... or hold space bar to move around or when you were zooming in and things?

super duber cool, more 3d tanks

Blender is free...

That'd be a pretty broad program to use for everyone to be able to apply.

Yes, awesome, thank you! Ha, 3DS Max, woohooooo!!!!

well, maybe i'll be the only one to be a little disappointed...
The Tutorial is fine, but i hoped that 3D tutorials would be confined to the integration of 3D elements in AE (like exporting/importing camera moves, Depth of Fields data, integrating 3D object in videos...) so VC.net would have been dédicated to AE post-production...

wish u could have used a app. that was used for mac too.

Is it possible to integrate models from 3ds max onto live footage in after effects or any other way? someone told me its impossible it has to be over a still picture

GREAT !!!
i hope you'll make other 3ds max tutorial like this one !!
i'll buy all of your dvds turorial with 3ds max!

THANKS A LOT

Woo Hoo!!!

Not only a new tutorial, but a new tutorial on a NEW Product, that I know nothing about, but would love to know more!!!

Maybe we can persuade him to give up his Hollywood day-job, and dedicate his life to making us free tutorials every day??? please?

Very awsome andrew Very awsome

great, I bought cinema 4D yesterday...
and now?!

O man I was thinking you were going to tell us how to get the camera data to AE and how to incorporate the two etc etc , but then it ended :(. well maybe next time!!

Sweet! Pretty easy to translate to blender! Cool tut.

haha sick i just got 3DS Max yesterday and all i was thinkning was "I hope Andrew uses 3DS" and what do ya know

Thanks

im glad these tutorials are finally looking at the big picture and combining more programs...Great stuff!!

it also doesn't make for a bad birthday gift too

If you want i can make some Maya and Cinema4d translation of your tutorials, let me know if you're interested :)

Anyway, nice tut Andrew :)

Great tutorial.

But I think you should show us how to incorperate it into AE.
It kinda left me hangin at the end.

Great choice!!!
MAX
Man you are the best of the bests !!!

awesome!!!

Maya is better

I am so stoked that you are doing 3ds max tutorials!!!! (even if they are supplemental) TAKE ON THE WORLD!

muy bueno es magnifico gracias Andrew

man.... you gotta rule the world. c'mon, take those bastards out of that stupid chairs and own them over the wooorrrld! and you are very funny, also lol

wish the best for you, honestly

Very cool. Do you know C4D? If so, maybe a tutorial or two, or three or.......in the future?

thanks man!

Todas tus clases son perfectas y cuidas hasta el mas minimo detalle, sos excelente!!! Gracias por tanto material.

Thanx man, great tutorial as usual

thanxxxxxxxxxx !

this is what i was awaiting long time :

3d Text in 3ds max Very cool.

but >>>> How can we import logo from AI or PSP ?


Thanks the Great Andrew ever

I love you Andrew Kramer. Your tutorials are always so informative and funny to watch. I hope lots of people buy your products, you deserve it. Keep the great tutorials coming and THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

hey... great tutorial! I have a really stupid question to ask... when you first created the plane in 3DMax you were able to rotate and move around in the "perspective" window with your mouse without using the rotate and move tools. What keys were used for this? Thanks!

i use 3ds max. didn't think you'd do a max tut. awesome. will there be more?

Great tutorial, a bit easy for most 3D Max users, but still good enough and even had a few things I didn't know.

I would love to see a tutorial about morphing.

Greetz W2E

Great tutorial Andrew...I was wondering, is it possible to create a 3D logos or emblems? Like a 3D Superman Emblem?

thanxxxxxxxxxx !

this is what i was awaiting long time :

3d Text in 3ds max Very cool.

but >>>> How can we import logo from AI or PSP ?


Thanks the Great Andrew ever

Hey Andrew,

A little basic but nice to see you're touching on the 3d end. I've been using Max for 6 six years and stuggle with the intergration with AE. You touched on the RLF format at the end, this is something i'm hoping you expland on in future tutorials, i know AE can import RLF but i'm not sure how or where it splits the channel data.

Also composing 3d with a live plate.

I agree with a poster above, i'd very much like to see how you intergrate Max with AE. and is it possible to take camera data from Max to AE?

and to add to that is it possible to get 3d geometry into AE from max?

Thanks again,

Take care - David.

Dazza,

MAYA is not the main choice for all houses. If your going to state information, make it accurate. I have friends working in houses from IL&M to Lucas Films to Dreamworks and they use 3DS MAX, MAYA, & XSI all of the time. And most of the time, they have totally reconfigured these programs using in-house scripting so much that they are not even close to the version that's on the box.

Thanks Andrew and sorry. I had to vent a little. The app. doesn't matter... it's the techniques. And we all appreciate you Bro.

COOL !!! More tutorials with 3ds max !!!!

yes, why not use After Effects? We can do 3D text in AAE too, when we use Invigorator3D plugin. you see: www.ayatoweb.com and http://www.ayatoweb.com/ae_tips_e.html

Awsome Andrew definetly for me this is the best site integrating usable techniques

please if you can combine 3D STUDIO MAX and After Effects example
importing Z deep into After Effects from 3DMAX
camera mapping into After effects
etc...

your tutorials are the best and always keeping the joking part a kind of spicy mood

Greetings

Hello Andrew your website its very nice i love it , i've lerned a lot of stuff. Im from Brazil
and now im goin to buy more stuff from you , i want so bad learn how to work with 3d max and now i think its goin to happen
Thnks and God Bless you

Excelent tutorial Andrew ! Videocopilot rules !!!!

Excelent tutorial Andrew ! Videocopilot rules !!!!

i like this !!

EXCELENT
Thanks! Thanks!

YOUR FRIEND EDWARD FROM LIMA PERU

Great Tutorial

Great Tutorial

Hi Andrew
The new tutorials for Basic Training are very nice. Even I am not a beginer But I watch them for review.
I see also You make tutorial for 3D studio Max, that's great! I am a fan of 3D Max too but I do not make to much practice. Please send more tu torials in in this software. Tanks again
Fortuné L.

Thanks for all the stuff you've given us recently. Really glad you're doing Max, I've used it for years but thought I'd have to learn C4D to get some decent integration with After Effects. Can't wait for the next tuts!

Great tutorial, i just have a question. In the perspective view, how did you move the view around like a free camera? Is it a certain keyboard shortcut?

Keep up the good work! :D

awesome thanks Andrew this s wot i just been looking for since some weeks ago
but how can i create a 3d logo from an image

Thanks, Andrew we are getting at it ...

but i think it will be awesome if there are some integration with 2D footage and 3D mesh, Matchmoving and tracking

well it's all good

tunslike

Hi Andrew
I want to ask you if you have time to give us some lessons in 3D max which help us to make a perfect scenes with AE .

I have some scenes in my web site I hope you see it ones about star gate scene I was quote the Idea to find out if I can make it .

http://www.d-nt.com/strGat.htm

I need your opinion in my scene , you will see that I done some of your tutorial , I like you man

Hey Andrew and Max Users,

For those people who don't think Max and AE flow together, "YOUR CRAZY"! If you want to integrate camera data, lights, and other resources from 3DS Max into AE, there is a plug-in called "Max2AE" by Boomer Labs and it is made just for this.

www.boomerlabs.com

This will take all of your camera movement, lights, and so forth from Max and bring it right into AE. I use it all the time and it is AWESOME! You can render in layers for compositing purposes, place helpers in Max and they will import right into AE as solids, which then can be replaced with video or whatever else you want. I use this program for everything... from little projects to full out pro broadcast.

Just wanted to help out Andrew. Hope you don't mind. If you need me to do a tut, just let me know.

nuy bueno este tutorial

Andrew. Awesome tutorial. I've been hoping you would do this one for months and it just arrived. Xmas comes early! BTW your new site rocks. All the training and everything you are doing is unparalleled anywhere on the net in terms of ease of use, clarity of instruction and real world usability. Thanks for everything.

Thank you for this excellent tutorial ! I just have a little problem, I don't have the Chrome material, do you know where I can find it ? I did a serious search on Google but nothing came up ! Thank you again !

Hey,

Cool Tutorial, but the Problem is that you cant use it anywhere in Europe, the standart here is Maya, and I think it wont be so hard for you pro Guy to make some Tutorials (the next ones..) in that Programm

Cheers

Tom

Keep the Max tutorials coming Andrew!

Bad anecdotes too WE LOVE THEM

Hello Andrew!

It is good. and do not worry if you use maya or 3d max, I personally use maya, but both of them are highend 3D software produced by autodesk. You must have talent, because if you miss this, even if you have the best computer and best software you cant do anything. And i think you have talent so just cotinue using both techinques 2D and 3D.
If my english is bad, sorry for that.

thanks :}

excellent tutorial i just wanna thank u

This is very good. I enjoy all your tutorials.

My question falls along the line of combining the topics from this tutorial and something like the set extension tutorial.

I am looking to see how to export motion tracking data into a program like 3ds (i am moderately familiar with this 3d software as well) and assign it to a camera and then render out your computer generated subject/scene/objects and then add them to your original plates in After Effects to composite a cohesive, believable scene.

I am a little perplexed in how to get the data to integrate back and forth. Is this even possible?

Would it be possible to request a tutorial illustrating a 3d object composited into some video plates? (preferably hand held footage)

Whatever the case. I am finding all your work here very informative and useful beyond measure.

Thank you for all that you are doing.

So Cool!

This is sweet for stuff like the Hot Fuzz Titles!
I love that movie.

Thanks Andrew! This is awesome!

Eliot

Thanks Andrew Kramer

thanks for the tutorial andrew!!!!!

want to see more of your 3d tutorials!

so great!

Hey Andrew, i have problem with light/render
look the screen, i have some grain

http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/4852/problem3dsmmo5.jpg

It's a french version but, there are same effects
Do you have any idea ?

that's ok, thank you guy

Hey, good lesson!!! Can you create much lessons fo 3d's max, becourse it's cool programm like Adobe After Effects!!!

Very nice, 3DS max looked difficult to me, you make it so much easier to understand!

Congratulations, Andrew !!! Welcome to the Max world, my friend. You´ll can see in www.vladyoliver.com the results of six years of jobs with AE and Max together !!! They´re simple the best... I suggest this in your lesson: hide the base plane, go to Render ( F10 ), choose Render Elements Folder > Add > Specular. Max will be render another sequence that you can use in After Effects. Open this sequence in AE, choose screen, add glow it and you will take a photo-realistic effect over there. Try it !!! Regards.

Thanks for Coming to my Zone.
For me,
3DMax+Ae=Unlimited
Thanks,
Hope forward to seeing more

hi, I like after effects tutorials, you are a great!, but if you want releas 3D tutorials i would lik MAYA, ithink you are made for After Effects!

Hello!
I can't tell how much you've helped me in After Effects. I even think it was you that made me start using After Effects. You're tutorials are so great, and I really hope make more tutorials to 3DS Max, so I might start using it too.

Have a great life, mate!

Man you are the best of the best !!
I see you are good in 3D max. So can you show us more magic of 3D max with AE pleese !
regards

i am a first timer on this but i think this looks great.

wow i liked it i kinda messed it up at the end
going to redo it

btw how are you moving the 3d objects around?

keep the 3d max & motion graphics coming

Maya wins.

Though i'm not in a English-speaking country
still appreciate your great tutorial

Pretty good stuff!!

I really enjoyed it as I'm a 3DSMax user myself. I'm still on 5.1 but would soon move to the newer version is you kept coming with tutorials. I have heard many sing the praises of Cinema4D and have dreaded thinking about going to another 3D app.

Any ideas for learning 3DS Max better.

I really appreciated this tutorial.

to mr. brainy,

hahaha! i like it! next time teach me how to creat a monster. focus more on how to apply good skin.

thank you!

rockwell

Great tutorial :) but I had a problem, I did neither have Metal Chrome in my liberary or in my documents... I have tried to find a link for the material, but can't find it :(

Thank you very very much !!!

GREAT! not just this tutorial, all of them are great!i don't know what to say, i doesn't even speak english, jajaja i speak spanish. men, Thanks

Excellent tutorial, as always. Been using max for 6 years now but it's good to see the tutorial.

max absolutely rules. Hands down.

brilliant!! would u be able to create more 3ds max tutorials??dat would be class!!

WE WANT MORE 3DS MAX!!

For some reasons, my render is much much noisier then yours and it also takes more time to render, even with the same setting. I'm using a dual Xeon PC, and usually my render a pretty quick in 3ds max... Can anyone help?

Hello

I used 3dsmax to make a simple box with a texture(picture on it) I export the file in .3DS format and after that I import it in AE using zaxwerks.

The problem: the texture is not visible on the box. what should I do?

by the way you are superb, thanks to you I learned after effects and now I can make money home at my PC.

Thanks:)

please send me more tutorials to feel your product

simplemente exelente

Thanks man

hey andrew, thx for sharing ur experience...greating from china~

cheers!

The best tutorials ever!!

Hi Andrew Kramer! I like putting 3d in movies. Like space ships and that kind of stuff. But can you make a tutorial about how to create a scene of (for exampel) sam entering a 3d space ship and fly away?
usefull for star wars fanfilms.

oh and by the way. I'm saving to buy after effects cs3 and is it better than 7.0? And what's new in it?
(Is 3dstudio max free? And where can i get it?)
