• Create ground destruction in 3D Max using particle flow
• Render motion blur and shadows for AE compositing
3rd Party Tools:

TUTORIAL NOTES:
Using a skylight is an easy solution to soft shadows but for faster rendering try using an array of point lights in a dome pattern above your scene with shadows on. View The Movie Site

Greetings from Germany by Edd Black 09/19/2008 Even though my brain exploded, it was very interesting to see how you created the 3d elements for your piece.

I have followed up until the point where you need to create the particle generator. My problem is I can see the little ticks in all of the view ports accept for the one where I have my background. I have tried changing the color and switched it to circles, but I cannot see them. Do you know what could be wrong?

Could you explain it more clearly for people not use to 3ds. I need help please... by Kenneth Sebastian 09/22/2008 Thank you so much. Usually tutorials like these are so expensive.

I would punch him in the face!" YOUR AWESOME!! GOOD TUTORIAL ALSO LOL by Indiefilmmaker 09/22/2008 Great Tutorial, Andrew! One of the things I liked a lot, besides the cool effects is, the whole tutorial is very time efficient in spite of the enormous material covered. Would it be possible for you to make the same tutorial in BLENDER? Myself and many Independent Filmmakers/Visual FX-Artists are on Mac and 3DsMAX is used only on PC. Also would you have knowledge on how BLENDER compares to other top notch 3D programs such as Maya, Lightwave, 3DSMAX, and Cinema4D? Please let us know. Thank you. by I FUCKIN LOVE YOU 09/22/2008 I love you holy shit, im going to like buy your next product immiediatly just cause you said the joke about punching the dealer in the face. wow i lvoe you by muna khan 09/23/2008 i have no words for comment you are one in a million who share amazing ae tips.thanks for great tutorials. by Jackienp 09/23/2008 I don't know why use PNG 48bit for render.

You're really building up a lot of people's skills and you're really going out of your way to help a lot of people. The fact that you've made all of these tutorials, and continue to do so, completely defies all logic. I think that you're doing a really really really good thing, here. Keep it up as long as you feel inclined! Your contribution is enormous. by werka 09/23/2008 fantastico tutorial, gracias andrew la verdad que es una alegria podeer nuevamente leer un tutorial tuyo, thanks!!! great tutorial from argentina!!!! by Charles X 09/23/2008 That good tutorial, besides that it include a tutorial with examples of 3d max I needed to learn, THANK YOU MASTER. 3D-Max and After Effects Rules!!! by xmayax 09/23/2008 The animation is ok, but as a "production", looks really fake. Lack of reactive lightings, motions of the scene's objects are missing, it looked like just a still photo being enhanced thru animations, the life is missing. by tarek 09/23/2008 andrew that was really cool ...u have to make some 3ds max animation tutorials by ronslap24 09/23/2008 Hey, Wazzup Andrew Kremer!

Unfortunately those of us with Macs cant use 3DS Max by Ricardo Elizondo 09/27/2008 This tutorial was really good, there is no one like you on teh internets.

I am recording in a Sony HDR-SR12 which is full HD AVCHD format, to pass it on to the computer is in m2ts format, convert it to mpeg2 but it is impossible to move forward, impossible edit. . What do I need? A greeting and thank you very much. by Florian 09/30/2008 Uh Maya and Blender are available for Mac, but 3Ds Max isn't ;). by Emre Eldemir 10/01/2008 GREAT...!!!!! by Juan 10/01/2008 Great!!, I´m wondering... will you put the project files? by jamel 10/01/2008 Andrew Kramer, ya rien a dire bravo tu es le super ,je souhaite vraiment te rencontrer un jour,bonne continuation et merci encore pour tous ces tutorials,que dieu te garde,encore bravo... by manny 10/01/2008 Thanks andrew!Great tutorial!
