Well take a detailed look at the body segments which comprise the skeleton and build a skeleton and collision-shape body for our car agent. Well cover agent parameters and look at the various aspects that make up the body of a Massive agent.
We will look at the Body page in Massive where you define the physical characteristics of a Massive agent. Geoff will also discuss the usual pipeline of a massive project in a production environment. Well take a tour of the user interface and look at the various aspects of the software such as the brain, body, motion and scene pages and how they relate to each other. The introductory lesson will give a general overview of Massive and introduce theoretical concepts such as Fuzzy Logic. He has since used Massive in motion pictures such as I-Robot, King Kong, Avatar, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, the Planet of the Apes films and the Hobbit trilogy.
Geoff has been working with Massive since 2000 and was involved with its early development in creating the crowd scenes for The Lord of the Rings trilogy. He started working in the industry in 1993 as an animator using SideFX Prisms, Alias PowerAnimator and Maya. Geoff Tobin is a Lead Massive TD working at Weta Digital in Wellington, New Zealand. In order to demonstrate each of the aspects of Massive well develop a vehicle agent and show how a simple traffic simulation can be created. This course aims to give an introduction to the inner workings of Massive from the ground up, introducing core concepts such as Fuzzy Logic and how it relates to creating an AI brain for a Massive agent. Massive is the crowd simulation software initially developed for The Lord of the Rings trilogy and is now used on major motion pictures, TV shows and commercials to create realistic crowd scenes.
