Want to light stuff on fire? Well, now you can learn to do just that, at the
safety of your own workstation, with Vue's powerful volumetric materials.

Instructor Nicholas Pellegrino, will show you how to use
Vue 6 Infinite / XStream to create realistic fire effects.

Learn to shape your fire with existing Vue tools, no imported objects or images needed.       Learn to create simple and quick rendering fire, or highly complex turbulent materials.       Explore various functions and filter nodes, to create a variety of effects and shapes.       Create custom animation sequences and pre-rendered effects, for quick render times. Then map the sequence to billboards and learn to correctly connect alphas.

Use turbulence to add detail and realism to your overall materials, and learn to animate their effects over time.       Learn to save your custom materials with animation included, and use them over and over again. You'll also learn how you can adjust the size of your effect to match any size object.       Learn the difference between vector origin driven animation, and keyframe animation. Then use the two together to create the perfect pyrotechnic effect.

All that and more, with over three hours of Vue pyrotechnic training. Includes Scene Files, Renders, and Material Presets!
