Topics tackled:
Bouncy dynamic non-rotating cubes

Extruding Noodles
00:26:29 Some pasta noodles getting extruded and sliced. Model the noodle first. Love working from real-life reference! Some nifty Signal (from GSG) looping tricks. Also used to turn the Cloner into a sudo-emitter. Thouroughly enjoyed this one. Even a little guess-and-check Xpresso!

(GSG's) Signal driving flicker in a (Arnold) material
01:09:58 It's all in the title!

Edit!


Using Volumes to Drive a Cartoon Face Rig.
01:18:12 Starts as a question about 2D face rigs on top of 3D characters. Turns into exploring using R20 Volumes to drive facial animations. Intriguing...

Pulling the From of a Letter into Fabric
01:36:54 Some Cloth, more Cloth, then some sculpting, then morphs and jiggles! Nicer result than I thought we'd get.
