I was asked by DNeg to prepare a short tutorial for the "VFX Tip and Tricks" campaign that they are running on Instagram and Facebook.

The goal of these 3 minutes clips is to give people an insight into the workflow of professionals like modelers, texture artists, FX artists and so on.

It is my first tutorial ever, hope you'll enjoy it :)
