The Fountain - Low Res, UVing, and Baking
Learn how to create professional low res meshes for next-gen games. The bulk of this demonstration is in 3ds Max 2010 where the instructor uses the new graphite modeling tools to optimize and create meshes to be used to capture the details from the fountain high res mesh. After the low res mesh is created the instructor creates the UVs for all the modular pieces of the fountain and then goes into great detail about the baking options to create your normal and ao maps.
The techniques used in this video have been proven effective in production to quickly create professional next-gen game meshes.

Overall, a good set of training DVDs. Some criticisms. It would help if the narrator had a more enthusiastic voice. It starts to get very irritating after the first few videos. It would also help if the actual reasons for his decisions had been laid out better. As it is, you often end up just following along, not knowing where everything is going. Finally, it feels like the instructor was winging it at times. He would often scrap his work and do it over again. This is confusing to the student who is following along. Yes, there is a certain level of experimentation with creating 3D, but for the purposes of a training DVD, it confuses rather than enlightens.

Excellent training. Really liked the Photoshop techniques!
Will there be a Part 3 on texturing?
