Montage Studio

Hey guys!

This is my first post in our blog, and I’ll do it with a bang!

First of, let me inform you that our gallery system is now fully fonctionnal. Make sure to check it out using the Gallery button at the top of the page. You’ll find two sections, one for still images, and another for our Animations. We’ll make sure to fill it up with more projects as time goes by.

Secondly, and I believe it’s quite important, I’d like to let you know what I plan to do under the banner of MontageStudio. As Jonathan explained it, our goal is push our own skills, but also to share our knowledge with the community. Since MontageStudio now lives as a studio, or an entity if we might say, it is therefore a member of the Blender Community. Jonathan and myself will work, and produce quality learning ressrources to give back the community what it gave us in the past. Jonathan already did alot with his now famous video tutorials and dvds, and here is what I’m planning to do in the next weeks/months.

• As soon as next week, I’ll start recording Timelapses (or visual tutorial as I like to call them) related to mechanical/architectural modelling. These timelapses won’t only benefit the viewer, but also myself.
• As a matter of fact, these timelapses will put the basis in my personnal training to achieve better teaching. I will use the knowledge I gain from these small “visual tutorials” to produce bigger learning ressources such as a complete video tutorial.
• This then lead me to the production of a full training DVD. I expect delivering a first DVD which would cover mechanical Modelling, Texturing, Lighting, Compositing and Rendering by the end of the summer. Keep your eyes open, some more info about my progress will appear on this Blog.

Again, make sure to check out our new Gallery !

Have a nice day,
Jean-Sébastien Guillemette
