Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

To All Members - my goodbyes

Hello all

From the 1st of this month (August 2005) I actually left the simply3dworld company. My email under the remove#kevin@simplymaya.com will only be in operation while I tie up some loose ends. Please redirect all mails / questions to Dave now as he is taking over the sites.

At this time I would like to thank all the members of the sites for there support and kindness over the years. I have built up some good relationships with many members and mods and will stay in touch as best I can.

The simplymaya site was the first simply3dworld site that was created, this mainly out of my disapointment of tutorials found on the net. I wanted a place where I could find good video tutorials at a good price and as there was not any I spoke with Dave over a few pints and we decided to make one. The rest is history.

I feel the need for change - A (on going) messy divorce and bringing up my 7 year old girl has led me in other directions that I now want to pursue. The computer side of things really never was my thing and I feel that I would like to pull away from it and start a different venture.

I know the sites are in good hands as David has many plans and has spoken to me about a few of them, so good luck to him and what the future brings. Also I want to thank him for the freindship he has given me and the support over the years (b)

From today I will be removed as Admin from the sites but will call in from time to time as a curious member (dave has promised me 10% discount on all dvds user added image)

So I guess this is goodbye from me..... to staff and members alike - good bye and good luck to all.
