Upcoming video tutorials

[kdog]

Howdy all,

I'm soon to be posting some video tutorials for TBS 3.5. So what I'd like from you are some topic suggestions. I've been putting together some stuff for a cut-out tutorial that will cover the process of cutting out & assembling a character from scratch, and of course address peg heirarchies & element layering which go along with rigging a cut-out toon. I'll have this one ready ASAP, early next week I hope. It shouldn't take that long to make, I just have a lot going on this week.

I've also got some things in mind for a lip-synching tutorial, but after that I'm not sure what people want to know, I don't just want to recycle Steve Ryan's tut's (http://www.steveryan.net/Tutorials/ToonBoom.htm), but if people want some basic info on the program I'll do it since his were from version 2.0. So please tell me if you have something specific you'd like to see addressed & I'll do what I can. If I don't hear anything, then I'll just make them on topics as I think of them.

Hopefully there will be some interest, & more importantly, I hope some of you will find the tut's helpful in your endeavors. I'll post something as soon as I get one up, but for now just leave me topic suggestions if you have any.

Cheers,
Pat

Well, I just posted the first part of my first tutorial (file size is a b*tch) I had some trouble with various settings which is why it took so long, but I will have the remaining parts finished & posted in the next 2 days or so. I hope someone will find them useful at least to some degree.

The video quality isn't the best, but I finally got the sound & video to synch up, which was my major problem before. If you have TBS, you'll easily be able to follow, but there will be some crappy looking lines & such. I guess that's the "price you pay" for free video hosting :)

I'm open to suggestions on any topics people would like to see a tut on, so if you have any please post them here. Til then, check this out & please give feedback!
