Clouds Tutorial
OMG A new post! Wow, yeah I figured it was about time to make a new tutorial. Clouds, something an FX artist gets asked to do many many times over the course of his/her career. While I have a bag of tricks for whatever the shot needs, this is by far my most trusted, in that it gets results fast and looks decent. Its got limitations but overall I find I can get most of the shots done with a combination of these techniques. The secret, I use maya presets! LOL just watch it.
And as a bonus, I did even an extra trick video. This ones a great technique that I'm still excited about even tho I've known and used it for a while now.

Hi mate, I love your vids, always informative and amusing.
Here is David Johnson's method of removing those wonderful notes panes from the bottom of the AE. Really annoying feature in 2012 that they are always open.

Cheers, geezer !
thanks for the link, great site. that'll come in handy!
Hey David, awesome tutorials!
Not totally unrelated... but unrelated, Im curious if you've ever figured out a work around for mapping 3d textures into the transparency or opacity channels of a 3d fluid. Its so glorious what you can do with that but with MR rendering it renders differently every time. seems like a bug that has no work around?
hey david
everytime i'm trying duplicate the "cloud shape layer" maya is crush, what to do?
anyway like yout vids, very usefull and informative.
