Other than that, I enjoy creating CGI, so having a natural passion for it really helps too. Once my skills improved I focused on tutorials that directly helped with something I was working on. I learned by going through many tutorials using those books that cover everything and playing with the software to discover what I can make from the toolset.
All my 3dsmax skills are self taught and it wasn't what I studied at college for. Learning 3dsmax in your own time is completely possible. Before this I worked in a multimedia company and about 75% of the work was in 3dsmax from designing and visualising exhibition stands and displays to animations for car companies, visual guides, products and so on. I work full time as a 3D visualiser making architectural visuals in a building company. There are a lot of different kinds of careers you can make from 3D skills. We can discuss at another time: topology, uvw unwrapping, texturing, lighting etc. Have fun! Its a fun thing to create art in CG. Get familiar with your tools and model everything. As you learn max you'll learn to spot the difference between good and bad ones. Just because its a tutorial doesn't mean it's a good one. Use at least mental ray and learn how to light a scene.īe careful who you watch on YouTube. If you do this I almost guarantee that you'll be using max for more than 30 minutes each session. Decide on a time to start and play around in max for at least 30 minutes. If you want to get good rather than just kill time then make a schedule. You have an interest in modelling characters and animating them too? Great! Go with that! If you truly want to get good at 3ds max then I have a few tips for you especially starting out. Companies will pay to have you trained in the software they use. If you get really good and have a great portfolio. But here's the beautiful thing about the CG field. You can definitely be self taught and get a job in cg ESPECIALLY with 3ds max. That man is completely self taught apart from a couple architecture courses. It depends on how good you get of course but the sky's really the limit.
