The tutorials in this book present examples of typical concept design workflows. The tutorials introduce the powerful tools and interactive features of Alias, and demonstrate how to use them to accomplish your concept design tasks.
The first six tutorials introduce modeling tools to build your experience level. We recommend that you start with the first tutorial and proceed sequentially through the modeling tutorials, because they build on each other.
The next two tutorials introduce rendering tools and skills.
These tutorials are densely packed with information and techniques that may be new to you. You may want to re-read the lessons after completion, or even repeat the more difficult lessons.
You can view movies (in Flash format) demonstrating each tutorial in the online documentation. In order to view these movies, you may need to install a Flash player. You can download Flash plug-ins for your browser for free from www.adobe.com.
Disclaimer: There may be slight discrepancies in procedures between the movies and the written documentation. If you encounter a discrepancy, use the written documentation version because it will be the most current.
