Since I now realize the vast amounts of 3D and animation software, I have started  multi-purposing  these tutorials so that you get a bit of coverage over more programs instead of just particular one. As usual the difficulty is mixed, but I think from the title alone you can tell how difficult. Oh and please note that the full tutorial is accessible through the video’s title

3D & Animation Tutorials – March 11th 2013

A user requested that I post tutorials for Autodesk 3Ds Max so here are a few links to some resources that can help.

first up is the official YouTube channel, that after a brief browsing through seems to have a lot of information. 3ds Max Learning Channel

the next is a tutorial index on the site: 3ds Max Tutorials , there is also a download link that allows you to download all the resources and tutorials. 3ds Max Service

I have never used 3ds max and I know very little about it, but I think those can help out a great deal so check them out.

Blender Tutorials

These tutorials will cover everything from getting started with the interface to Tracking and of course everything in between. Blender has always been one of my favorite programs but sadly, I don’t have a computer that can take advantage of its power, but it is very powerful and best of all the program is completely free. When you are now starting out, everything looks as if it is in another language but eventually you will know what you are doing.
