    Maya

    I use Maya. Often, I just watch other people use it. Started with 3D Studio v1, SoftImage, and currently Maya.

    watch My Animation Reels

    I love RH's films and also met him on several occasions. I supervised one sequence which was an homage to Ray's legacy, so I appreciate seeing you doing the same. :thumbsup: - Thomas

    Question About Particle VFX

    Exactly. I wrote my short around the locations thats that I secured (for free). Same goes for VFX.

    Question About Particle VFX

    In the right hands, your desired effect is quite possible. But, I think you might be going about this the wrong way. When working on a limited production budget, you've got to work with the tools you have on hand. When writing locations, it's a good practice to find & secure a location, and...

    Cost of 3D PreViz

    Producers deal in absolutes and will want to know how much previs will cost before awarding the contract. There's certainly room to charge overages when the client makes requests beyond the scope of the contract, so you will want to focus closely on the details. It's not uncommon to add...

    Cost of 3D PreViz

What you need to account for in your bid is: - Operating costs - all of them (be honest with yourself) - Your profit/income - Complexity of the job relative to your previous projects - Client changes (and there will be many) - Your experience/resume...

    Cost of 3D PreViz
