You can make literally ANYTHING in Maya within an hour using Maya's MASH networks. Use it for animation, modeling, FX, lighting effects, or just do some classic mograph! Use it in your 3D short films or send it to Blender, whatever your goal, this is a video I've been waiting to share with you for far too long! Enjoy :)

@seencapone 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! MASH is quite deep, it's super fast, and a lot of fun to play with. One more thing worth mentioning. MASH has easy to use built-in procedural animation effects as well: either using effectors to create turbulent-field looping motions, or through the 'engines' which create iterative transformation effects on geometry groups which can all be glued to work together (like a churning or crawling effect). Combine these with the Bullet physics for true collisions and gravity, and you've got, say, a crashing asteroid field, or sandblast effect, or a Plexus-like object, in literally minutes. In my opinion, MASH is *not* a complete substitute for C4D MoGraph tools, which are considerably deeper and better integrated. But MASH was acquired to try and appeal to users who wanted these quick dynamic motion graphics toolsets.

You can follow Ian Waters on KZfaq or his Vimeo channels. He is the developer of MASH and he released a ton of quick, super engaging tutorials. They are a few years old now and MASH has been subject to updates, but the basic premise in his tutorials still apply. Also he is really funny. But perhaps Sir Wade will continue to release fresh training for MASH, since Ian appears to have moved on.

@hyruleorchestra4339 3 жыл бұрын

To the Blender users: No- the modifier stack can't do this stuff....especially not the array modifier alone. You'll run against a wall as soon as you want layered falloffs for your effects. Yes- Animation Nodes is powerfull and it can do a lot of things that are shown here. But it is not a reliable production tool for Motion Designers in the industry. It still has render bugs, it can't handle very large amounts of instances, especially high-poly ones and it has an insufficient connection to Blenders Physics and Particle Engine. (Not to speak of those systems as they are still horrible in Blender) BUT the biggest issue is the development: The creator of Animation Nodes Jacques Lucke is currently working on particle nodes. Early access features show that it is developed in a completely different direction. Blender in the future will become full node based and for this they will change the whole internal system over the next few years. Also mainly based on C instead of python. This means that Animation Nodes which are python based will not have a long term connection to new Blender features. It will still take lots of years till you get something even remotely comparable to Mash or Mograph in Blender. So please stop these half-assed "Blender can do everything as well" comments if you don't have some real insights.
