Like all our products, this tutorial series doesn?t just tell you what to do, it shows you using 3dtutorial.com?s unique and innovative multimedia desktop video player technology. No codecs to worry about, no nasty dll?s to clog up your computer. Just run our application and watch the video movies on your desktop, it?s so simple.

Part A contains 16 lessons and has a running time of 3H 11M 42S

Part A takes an in-depth look at XSI's powerful modelling tools, the following topics are discussed:

Setup, selecting objects, selecting components, translation, rotation, scaling, 3d manipulators, construction of a primitive elephant using transforms.

Part B contains 17 lessons and has a running time of 3H 38M 24S

Part B continues to look at XSI's powerful modelling tools, the following topics are discussed:

Construction of a primitive elephant using extrusions, beveling, subdivisions, rotoscopy, booleans, NURBS Curves, NURBS surfaces, etc.

Part C contains 14 lessons and has a running time of 3H 04M 55S

Again, Part C continues to look at XSI's powerful modelling tools, the following topics are discussed:

The scene explorer, groups, duplication, construction of a stone arch (mini project), construction of a colliseum (mini project), the push tool, the bend tool, the bulge tool, the shear tool, construction of various vehicle tires (mini project).

Part D contains 12 lessons and has a running time of 2H 13M 14S.

Part D concludes the series with the modelling of a mountain bike from primitives objects which will put into practice the use of nearly all the tools discussed in this series.

In parts A, B, C, and D the practical use of each tool is shown !!!

XSI Modelling 1 is a perfect introduction for anyone who is new to 3d or just getting started with SOFTIMAGE|XSI.

Educators - This makes a perfect introduction to basic modelling in XSI and is ideal for classroom instruction!
