Formative Assignments and Practice Tests
Marble and Wine Bottle Destruction: Demonstrate an understanding of the destruction pipeline.
Create a wall destruction effect that includes fracturing and rigid body dynamics along with additional particle and fluid effects to simulate dust, smoke and small debris to sell your FX shot.
Ocean: Produce a dynamic FX element(s) that accurately replicates a
simple real-world phenomenon. Accurately replicate the forces and elements of the effect itself. Additional geometry and environment only needs to be to a proxy format. Textures are NOT a requirement for this project.
Fireworks: Maya FX particles (size/timing/type/and lifespan)
Smoke Skull: Video replacing color information with fluid.
