    You are doing something right. You are my favorite content creator in this genre. The videos are understandable, whatever you're working on, you always explain everything well. They are easy to follow and easy to learn from them.

    Congratz and good luck to you in your indie game endeavor !
    I'm one of those who followed your teachings, and I landed a VFX job in the industry about 2 years ago :)
    As a hobbyist game maker too, I can relate to what you say about the parallel between VFX and making a game, everything you said in this video is true man!
    Thanks for giving so much to the community ♥

    Hello Gabriel. I am studying software engineering and while I learned Unity and can code to a certain degree I really wanted to improve asset related work for game development. VFX interests me the most and I fell in love with your tutorials! Thank you so much for showing us new things frequently. If I make a suggestion I would really love to see more conceptual videos for more intermediate learners. Like how can I create a new effect with my own ideas/knowledge and what key principles there are to evaluate and to include into my animation.

    which software should I focus for vfx?
    after effects, blender, nuke, unreal? unity?

    • @GabrielAguiarProd
      @GabrielAguiarProd  ปีที่แล้ว

      I would focus on Unity. On learning the ins and outs of the particle system. Then learn texture creation by drawing or creating them procedurally with software like Material Maker. And then learn shaders. Blender is also useful to create meshes for cool effects.

    I hope someone can answer my question as I'm debating on wanting to become rather a 3D artist or a VFX artist, do I need natural skill in art to become an artist in these fields, or is it something I can practice and work on as long as I have the imagination to do so?

      I've seen people get a job or a freelance opportunity after around a year of intense learning and practicing. It all depends on your portfolio.
      The quality of the content you put on places like Artstation (don't sleep on this one), LinkendIn, Twitter and other social media.

    i have heard this from time to time, especially from jason keyser, former riot vfx lead..
    i feel like if i finish my school first will be too late to join the industry, since the rapid growth and looking demands right now is very high. What should i do? Currently also doing animation but i have more love for VFX, while they don't teach that in my school.

      Finishing school is always important, but keep on expanding your knowledge on vfx as well. Invest time on your portfolio every bit of time you can. Places like Artstation are very much looked after, by all kinds of companies. So update your portfolio with your contact, availability and your work. Look for freelance opportunities they are always a great boost on getting recognized. Good luck!
