Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D 8 Spline Modeling with Larry Shultz

Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D Tutors

File type: QuickTime (*.mov)
Video: Aspect: 225:187 (900x748) Codec: SVQ3

This is one video we are truly excited about! When you think of Spline Modeling in LightWave 3D you think Larry Shultz, he is the master...or Splinegod.
This video is more than three hours of incredible instruction from the master himself. You will learn what spline's are and how they fit into Lightwave's workflow, using spline's as guides for extrusions to create organics tubes or pipes, use of spline's to create skelgon (bone) chains is shown, rail clone, rail bevel, spline guides, spline's to motions and motions to spline's and much much more.
Larry Shultz is well known as the Splinegod, now through this video you too can learn his secrets. From the foundation of spline's to advanced uses for them, this video covers it. you will be modeling in spline's like the splinegod in no time.
The emphasis on demonstrating the use of these tools is not just on how they work but also how to use them in a workflow. How to make them all work together is a big part of the theme of this DVD. There is nothing available that covers spline's in this detail.

Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D Tutors

Size: 1,07 G

We have been trying to get Larry Shultz to cover all of his traditional rigging techniques for over a year now. With the LightWave 3D 9 coming out Larry wanted to wait to see what new tools Newtek would add or change in LightWave 3D 9.
Larry has been hired by professional studios such as Warner Brothers, and Foundation Imaging (Ron Thorton) to create easily animatable characters using rigs exactly like the training on this DVD.
Finally someone demystifies the process and shows you the do's and don'ts and most importantly why! Most users have read online about the rigging process, now finally there is some formal training available to LightWave 3D users.
In this video Larry not only shows you tricks to speed up the rigging process by using a proxy rig but he also covers every aspect of the 12 fundamentals of rigging.

Video: 900x748, Aspect: 225:187

LightWave 3D is a very powerful tool and with the new IK Booster tools it has become more powerful.
Larry is an industry leading artist and very well versed in rigging. The purpose of this CD is to get you up and running with IKBooster. There are a lot of misconceptions about IKBooster and Larry will clear all of those up for you.
Larry shows you the strengths and weaknesses of LightWave's native IK and IKBooster. The real strength of both is to combine them. IKBooster really shines when it is combined with LightWave's native IK. This is why it's called IK BOOSTER rather than IK Replacer.

Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D Tutors

LightWave 3D for 2D Print and Illustration ArtistsMost video professionals approach LightWave and other 3D programs without a background or understanding of print. Yet eventually, all 3D artists are asked to create artwork for print. Most print artists find high-end 3D programs perplexing, but want to use 3D tools for specific tasks only. Print artists need an introduction to a high-end 3D program that will help them quickly get what they need out of it. 3D artists need an understanding of how print works as well as an understanding of what to do to make their 3D images appropriate and even ideal for print.
Print for LightWave Artists will help Graphic artists learn how to get into and out of LightWave 3D quickly with the images that they want to use in their every day graphics programs. 3D artists will learn all about how print works, as well as how to create an image for print that will impress print clients with a product that will save them hours of time in graphics programs. This DVD includes a section walking through the most commonly needed 3d image for 2d graphic designers - 3d type. The graphic design buyer will be able to quickly get into and out of LightWave 3d with the results and the image that they need.

Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D 8 Bone Tools

Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D Tutors

File type: QuickTime (*.mov)
Video: 900x748, Aspect: 225:187
Audio: Qclp: Qualcomm PureVoice

The purpose of this CD is to get you up and running with the new bone tools in Lightwave 3D [8]. These new bone tools make rigging in Layout not only possible but much easier then using skelegons. Larry Shultz will show you not only how they work but demonstrate how to rig a character with them.
Larry Shultz worked with Irrational Number, developers of the bone tools formerly know as "Ortho" for many months helping develop these tools. Larry is probably one of the few people who has been using these tools since they were developed. Larry was instrumental in not only getting these tools into LightWave [8] but the introduced NewTek to the programmers who then worked directly for NewTek.
Now you can take advantage of what Larry has learned about these amazing tools.

Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D 9 Introduction to Node Based Texturing

Kurv Studios - LightWave 3D Tutors

LightWave 3D 8 - Get into Spline MoldeingTexturing with nodes is very different than the traditional layered based methods LightWave 3D users are used to. While extremely powerful, nodes can also be very difficult to understand, even for experienced artists.
James Willmott has completed his first video training in his series on nodes. The focus of this video is not to teach you how James would use nodes but rather to show you how nodes work so you can design and create your own node based textures and surfaces.
The video goes much deeper buy showing you how to create more advanced node based textures using noise, gradients, as well as images and procedural textures.
This video is much more than just a introduction video, it will have you using nodes effectively in a few hours. If you have been avoiding nodes, add this powerful tool to your workflow, pick up our latest video, LightWave 3D Introduction to Node Based Texturing.
