Mastering Unreal With Instruction Videos

Posted by simoniker on from the next-course-on-mastering-prey dept.

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to a HomeLan Fed interview with Jason Busby of 3D Buzz, talking about the Mastering Unreal project, an Epic-backed service which releases free, downloadable videos teaching users how to create levels, vehicles, AI, and whole mods for Unreal Tournament 2K3. According to Busby, "Currently, we have 64 videos available for download.. the videos themselves range anywhere from 20 minutes to two hours, depending on what is being covered and the amount of information that we must get across to the student." This project is running in conjunction with the Make Something Unreal mod competition we covered a few days ago, and seems like a very positive step to help people get creative and make cool new game mods/assets.

    RTFA, they aren't being sold and they aren't about PLAYING the game but modding them.

    Thanks, everyone, for the great comments! And a BIG thanks to Slashdot for posting this and helping to spread the word! We also have tons of other videos over such programs as Maya, 3ds max, MOTIONBUILDER, Houdini, Photoshop, and many more! Remember, the one belief that we rigorously stand behind is that all of this professional-quality education is FREE! BuZZ www.3dbuzz.com www.MasteringUnreal.com

    I'm sure you can get a huge deduction for FREE training.

    Yes. All are free. 100% free. Except for the Maya Technical Director course.
