Real Flow Essentials CG Society Workshop
So the big news of what I’ve been working on for the past 3 months! The Real Flow Essentials CG Society Workshop has finally been announced! This workshop is aimed at both expert level and intermediate FX users, or anyone in general looking to break into Real Flow.

This workshop is multi-platform, so whether you’re a Maya user, Max user, Houdini or XSI etc. As long as you have Real Flow you’re able to participate in this course. This workshop runs over 8 weeks, during which we cover a lot of information on how Realflow works, but also how to optimize and speed up simulation times, various tricks to get better simulations and utilize much of its dynamics, as well as various industry techniques to help advanced all users and ready them to jump into real visual effects shots confidently.

The workshop has only been announced for a few hours of posting this, and last time I checked there were 18 positions of the 35 already taken, so Imagine this 8 week course will fill up very quickly. So get in while you can!

  4. Hi Allan! I have noticed then description of Advanced Visual FX 2 – Particles Training DVD in your shop seems to be wrong, its the same as Fume FX: Essentials DVD.

    Also, site’s contact form at the top right does not works, in both IE and FF, its keeps asking for “required fields”, while there is no fields at all.
