So I discover a passion toward vfx in video games, playing around in cascade and niagara! I would love some tips to be a better vfx artist! Where to start with which programs etc… Any tutorial to create my own smoke texture in photoshop, blood texture… Thanks in advance!
This is not to be a jerk about it but my biggest tip/advice about being a better vfx artist is to learn how to use google (or similar search engine) and to also get really good at it! It’s really a skill of its own. Being a vfx artist means troubleshooting a lot of your own work or even doing a lot r&d on your own on new pipelines, softwares, or ways to get what you want done.
Being also very new with vfx, so Internet-high-five! Do many tutorials and when you know some basic stuffs, then start to make your own particle effects.
