Creative Sheep *Biology of Animation*

Here is an ICE Tree that I’ve been working on that can deform an object with a null based on a weight map.  You can copy the ICE Tree and tinker with it.

Mental Ray in Softimage, there is probably a node in Maya that does the same thing called Color Switch it’s a Boolean node and this image was taken from Rork on XSIBase forum.  Rork demostrates using a sprite to switch between a color image and a Ambient Occlusion shader, it can be used as a alternative to passes, although I still prefer passes.

I recently saw “How to create a Awesome Demo Reel” by Grumo Media.  It is really good and Miguel Hernandez is funny at times in the tutorial series as well. I recommend this tutorial if you want to know and sell your demo video as I want to in the near future.

A Brand New “Creative Sheep” web site will be online very soon.  Ready to hopefully make me a success.  My Demo Reel won’t be online as it’s not completed but that will be coming in the not to distant future, stay tuned.
