In this movie, you extract normal map information through a process called Render to Texture. In doing so, you will render the high poly geometry data onto a map type that you then use to sell the illusion of high detail on low poly objects.

In this tutorial, you learn to use normal maps to provide detail without adding geometry. It's a technique used mostly for gaming but can also be applied to architectural visualization or in any situation where interactive playback is required.

In this tutorial, you learn to animate TextPlus entities globally but also by separating paragraphs, lines, words and even individual characters. You do so by applying various animation presets to test the concept.

In this tutorial, you learn about Animation Offset Controls and Animation Presets, which are tools that make it easy to induce an offset so that the same animation does not occur simultaneously on multiple objects.

In this tutorial, you learn to use the Voxel Solver, which gives you a much better start-up skin solution where most of the skinning is already properly established. From that point, you only need to add the finishing touches.
