Developed by the experts at Ebberts + Zucker, Vybe moves away from traditional keyframing, allowing artists to transform mathematical waveforms into organic, captivating animations with unparalleled ease and speed.

• Continuing on from Giovani Magana’s introductory workshop, where he covers the core fundamentals of building game-ready environments, this new workshop focuses on using Houdini to develop procedural workflows to create high-quality assets.  The goal of this 4-hour workshop is to walk artists through the entire environment creation process, using artist-friendly workflows in Houdini. Giovani guides mid-level artists who already have some basic experience with Houdini in getting started with using the software as part of a creative pipeline. He walks through building a stylized fantasy environment to showcase the tools and techniques involved.

• Explore advanced facial blendshape networks with Adam Spring using Maya, ZBrush, Wrap, and Photoshop. The techniques demonstrated showcase the very methods Adam has utilized on numerous feature films and AAA game cinematic projects, including Call of Duty and Love, Death & Robots.  In this 7-hour workshop, artists will examine the extraction of blendshapes from scan data and learn how to organize them into primary and combination shapes. Adam will also demonstrate how to utilize the scan data to generate wrinkle and blood flow maps, which will then be used to construct the dynamic shader within the Maya node editor. He will also provide a brief demonstration of how to capture facial motion capture data on an iPhone using the Unreal Engine LiveLink app.

• The supplement generates a new object from a collection of objects using a simple implementation of the wave function collapse algorithm with constraints.
• Each object in the source collection can use custom properties to define valid neighbors. The generator randomly combines these objects into a three-dimensional grid, respecting the neighbor constraints. The valid position in the grid can be specified by the grid constraints.

• Initially developed in collaboration with the team at Capture One, these styles are geared towards portrait, fashion and beauty images, but work on a variety of genres. The pack contains 4 color grade, 1 black and white, and 2 skin tone correction styles that can easily be adjusted by layer opacity. Also included in this updated package are three bonus styles, 2 for color and 1 for black and white. The skin tone correction styles are particularly useful for fixing the two most common issues of skin tone cast and are designed to be applied prior to your retouch in order to start with a neutral base. The remaining styles are meant to be applied at the end of your retouch to give a subtle yet dynamic color grade to your images. The video below will give you a better idea on how you can use this pack to its full potential.
