Redefinefx – Torque A VFX Masterclass

This is Torque.

• Build an Epic, Production-Quality VFX Shot from Start to Finish!
• Become an outstanding VFX artist, get noticed by clients & studios, and make cool stuff for a living!
• This Masterclass exists to help you build your dream VFX shot, from scratch, step by step. I’m going to show you how to start with nothing but a blank 3Ds Max viewport, come up with a cool idea, then walk you through creating a complete production-quality VFX shot. Multiple shots, in fact. From the very beginning (ideation process, previz) to the very end (shading, lighting, rendering, compositing) and everything in between (making the city street environment, animating the camera and cars, tyFlow destruction, Phoenix fluid simulations and so on).  We’re simply going to cover everything you see in the trailer above, from start to finish.  The entire masterclass consists of over 130 videos, equivalent in scope & depth to 4 of my ‘standard’ courses, all made in the same efficient & beginner-friendly teaching style you’re used to from me. By the time you’re done with the first chapter lessons, you’ll have the skills to come up with, and build, a photorealistic, AAA-quality, All-CG VFX shot, taking your work to new heights.

“I’ve literally taken your .max files, changed almost nothing, rendered them, comped them and put them into movies. That’s unheard of.”

Crafty Apes’ credits include Stranger Things 4, Spiderman: No Way Home, Army of the Dead, Jumanji, Doctor Strange 2, Justice League and countless others major films & TV shows. The studio heavily uses 3Ds Max, tyFlow & Phoenix and has purchased all RedefineFX courses to-date 

• High-Paying Skills You Can Apply in Many CGI Fields
• Hollywood Films
• Episodic TV Shows
• Documentaries (think CGI-heavy space docs. etc)
• Motion Design & High-End Commercials
• Architectural Visualization (add simulations to stand out)
• Product Rendering (every smartphone launch trailer has Hollywood-style VFX these days)
• Social media: Blow up on TikTok & Instagram with VFX-heavy videos
• Filmmakers: Add studio-level VFX to your short films
• VFX students: Build a killer reel that will turn some heads 
• The Torque Film VFX Masterclass = equivalent to multiple standalone courses, valued at $4,500
• It’s a tyFlow Destruction Masterclass ($1000 value)
• Could easily be a standalone tyFlow course with how much ground we cover
• We go in-depth on many FX setups that always come up in almost every VFX-heavy project
• Shot 1: Window frames destruction & glass shattering with window frames staying stuck to walls, adding binds and conditions for realistic results, destroying office furniture, and adding flying papers for final details
• Shot 2: Bus stop destruction & rolling car with added damage, debris, front bumper flying off, tyParticleSkin, plexi-glass that breaks but remains attached to the roof, realistic sparks emitting from key impact points. We also have to deal with instancing the bus stop materials & adding additional material IDs
• Shot 3: explosion “firework-style” sparks, destruction debris and car parts flying off, high-speed smoke trail particles acting as sources for Phoenix, light “paper-style” debris being advected by shockwave smoke simulation, spiraling along with smoke. We also create particles that stick to large pieces of debris, creating cool fire trails with Phoenix later on
• Shot 4: bullet hits setup where “bullet particles” hit the wall, stick to it, then emit impact particles to create smoke burst & debris of rocks. Sparks setup on body of car.
• Shot 5: glass shattering & “entering bullet time” setup where simulation ramps down and goes from real time to about 10x slower (we’re not using the tyFlow Retimer here or After Effects time-remapping, the change in speed is all done within tyFlow in order for it to be possible to break the chopper rotors this way in slow-mo)
• Rotors breaking setup  – this is completely dynamic. Rotors are PhysX objects that collide dynamically with the car – no keyframes here. Notice that rotors have elasticity/spring to them and they bend upon impact, only snapping if the force crosses a threshold
• lots of secondary stuff happening in this shot, including the helicopter & car glass shattering, lots of sparks,  and the car roof gets ripped a bit, too
• Shot 6: everything in shot 5, but in real time. Additional damage to helicopter body upon impact with ground (it gets crushed my the car). Impact debris (car wheel flies off etc.). Helicopter tail hits the ground and gets deformed / ripped with tyFlow’s PhysX metal tearing solver, pieces of heli snap off, additional small sims here to add realism
• Overall, you will gain a deep understanding of how to use a ton of tyFlow’s operators, conditions, and modifiers, to create the desired result, eliminating any fear you may have of using this powerhouse of a plugin.
