3d Modeling Project Management

HooDoo is a brand new product from Coalmarch Productions scheduled for release in June 2006. We are presently taking applications for beta-testers and would love to hear from you whether you’re a freelance artist, or a member of a larger production team responsible for tracking your time accurately and working with tons of files.

3d Modeling Theory and Best Practices

When learning or refreshing your knowledge about a particular subject it is often helpful to seek a resource which presents information on the theories involved in your subject first. This gives you a broad foundation for practical application which can be referred back to when examining tutorials or further information dealing with specific portions of your subject. The theory page seeks to consolidate information related to the core tenets involved in 3d modeling and workflow procedures by providing synopsis information as well as example links to offsite articles dealing with these topics.

Theory

Example Work and Tutorials

The tutorials section consolidates tutorial resources found in forums and on other websites on the internet. These 3d modeling tutorials are then profiled here with editorial content as to their effectiveness at achieving their stated goals. Additionally we will store some tutorial information on this site locally for those artists who wish to teach, but have neither the web space or time available to create pages by hand.

Tutorials

Pipelines and Workflow Profiles

By examining how others perform work similar in nature to what we are attempting we can often gain a tremendous amount of insight into the larger process. This can yield great results when attempting to produce results similar to those created by larger studios and inspired solo artists. The workflow section of this site features example workflows for interoperating with other software packages, demonstrations of performance improvements in your own workflow and automation techniques.
