Maya Fluid Effects: Fundamentals
Fluid dynamics are rapidly becoming a powerful alternative to particle effects. In the first lecture of this series, effects animator David Schoneveld introduces you to the rules of fluid production, showing how Maya Fluid Effects can be used for everything from smoke, dust and explosions, to underwater plane crashes and more. David details the fluid menu, emitter and container attributes, as well as shading and texturing, while conveying an understanding of the dynamic attributes of fluid dynamics and their uses in production. The lesson also details the basics of ponds, emphasizing an understanding of the fluid shader and texture controls.
Topics Covered:
* Understanding Dynamic Attributes
* Fluid Emitters
* Fluid Container Attributes
* Menu and Options
* Animation Techniques
* Shading methods

Maya Fluid Effects: Particle Integration
In the second DVD in this series on Maya Fluid Effects, effects animator David Schoneveld imparts a detailed view of the various methods and advanced features of particle and rigid body control through fluid dynamics. This multi-faceted lesson takes you through the beginning and inter- mediate techniques of the Ocean Shader before revealing how you can create object-avoiding particles without scripting. The lesson culminates by teaching you how to create particles driven by fluid dynamics that can interact with an object or character.
Topics Covered:
* Fluid Particle Connections
* Ocean Basics
* Interaction Control methods
* Painting Particle Velocity
* Fluid Controlled -
* Rigid Body Simulations
* River Basics with Ocean Shader

7. Ocean Shader
8. Ocean Menu
9. Wake Emitter
10. Hot Tub
11. Fort
In the third DVD of this series on Maya Fluid Effects, effects animator David Schoneveld reveals the numerous methods he uses to create and control fluid explosions, covering dynamic, non-dynamic and texture-based effects. He teaches you how to use, and maintain control of fields with fluid containers. The lesson also covers the basics of flame construction, and explains how to use the Maya presets to build effects quickly and efficiently.
Topics Covered:
* Basic Flame Construction
* Density Field Controlled Explosions
* Temperature Controlled Explosions
* Non-dynamic Explosions
* 2D Explosions
* Creation of Dynamic Lava
Chapters:
