Author and Revit Architecture expert Eric Wing walks you through designing, documenting, and presenting a four-story office building. The continuous tutorial begins with the Revit interface and standard conventions for placing walls, doors, and windows, then progresses through the buildings design as would happen in the real world. Youll learn how to work with structural grids, beams, and foundations; add text and dimensions; build floors layer by layer; join exterior and interior walls; and create roofs and ceilings as well as stairs, ramps, and railings. Youll also be introduced to using embedded families and formulas, crucial site considerations, and importing and exporting to various formats.

You will also learn how to add people to different scenes as well as other objects to an already existing photograph or a video making it easier to increase its realism.

You will see how to use the final models to create simpler scenes for use in 3D games, where real-time rendering is necessary. You will also see how to use them to create the sets for animated movies.

What you will learn from this book?

* Build detailed and realistic models of buildings, furniture, and landscapes
* Create interior views of rooms and offices and exterior views of buildings, landscapes, and courtyards
* Produce video tours of the buildings and environments you create
* Export simple versions of your models for use in games and interactive environments
* Export still images and use the GIMP to give them a final polish
* Use natural and artificial light sources to illuminate your scenes in a realistic way
* Apply textures to building surfaces to produce more detailed and realistic scenes
* Add humans and other `props’ to your scenes to increase their realism
* Develop a library of textures, materials, objects that you can use over and over again
* Use the YafRay raytracer to create astonishingly realistic, photo quality images
* How to import materials between scenes
* Create interactive animations

Approach

The book consists of a lot of exciting examples, which are shaped using the various features of Blender. It consists of step-by-step instructions leading you to realistic models of buildings, landscapes, and more. A collection of amazing screenshots will add up excitement to your learning experience. You can build realistic 3D models that can be used while creating different animation projects.

The printed version of the book is in black and white, but a full color version of the images is available for download on : Packtpub.com. The eBook version, available from Packt, is in full color.

This DVD consists of five stand-alone lessons that cover various techniques using Maya’s fluid dynamics. In each lesson, Wayne walks you through his process, providing the viewer with a greater understanding of how to set up dynamic fluid simulations for production shot assets. Wayne starts by showing you how to create a believable fire simulation. He demonstrates how to control Maya fluids with a variety of textures and expressions to create a highly detailed and believable flame thrower effect. He then demonstrates how to create various smoke effects, including the desired “wispy smoke” effect. Wayne also discusses his methods for controlling fluid emission and motion using a variety of emission controls, collisions, and fields, to produce complex smoke, fire and dust simulations. Instructor for this title: Wayne Hollingsworth.
