Default Win $150 Credit With Moddler 3d Printing

GET A 3D PRINT OF YOUR WORK
There are so many great ZBrush artist creating tutorials here at ZBrushCentral.
We want to give you a chance to win a $150 credit with Moddler 3D Printing for
your contribution.

WHAT TO DO
Create a high quality ZBrush tutorial on any topic of your choosing. You can
create a video on sculpting, painting, a specific feature, or an entire work flow.
It can really be anything you want!

HOW TO CREATE A VIDEO TUTORIAL
There are many screen capture solutions on the market that will let you
create high quality recordings of you screen while you work inside ZBrush.
Some that would be worth taking a look at are:

PC users
(Camtasia Studio)
You can download a full 30 day trial of camtasia here:
http://www.techsmith.com/download/camtasiatrial.asp

(Jing Pro)
Even though Jing is a great program for quick and easy captures of your
screen, upgrading to Jing Pro lets you export your files to quicktime format.
http://www.jingproject.com/pro/


For Mac users
(ScreenFlow)

(Camtasia for the Mac)
You can download a full 30 day trial of Camtasia here:
http://www.techsmith.com/camtasiamac/free-trial/

(Jing Pro)
Even though Jing is a great program for quick and easy captures of your
screen, upgrading to Jing Pro lets you export your files to quicktime format.

RECORDING YOUR VOICE
You will need to record your voice as you work in ZBrush. You don't need
to explain ever single detail as you work, however talking about your
techniques and speaking the keyboard shortcuts you are using will be
a good idea. Also the quality of the audio is as important as the video.
Make sure you create your recording is a quiet place. It is also recommended
that you use a USB head set microphone for better audio!

DO YOU NEED TO EDIT YOUR RECORDINGS

No. In fact it is recommended that you don't edit your recordings.
If your video is selected we will take the time to do all the editing
for you. Mistakes are ok, just as long as you go back and record
the correct steps. Another reason we don't recommend you edit your
recordings is because we will need the videos in there highest
uncompressed format.

HOW LONG SHOULD THE TUTORIAL BE
The lengths of your recordings is not important. They can be 5 minutes or
5 hours. What is important is that you create a high quality tutorial that
explains what you are teaching clearly!

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR VIDEOS OF CONSIDERATION
Once you have finished all of your recordings, you can uploaded them
and send me a link to where they can be downloaded. There are many
different sites where you can upload your files where we can download
from. Once you have uploaded your videos for review, you can send me
a message here at ZBrushCentral. Just click on my user name
(Martin@Pixogic) to send me a message. If your tutorial is choosen to be
part of the ZClassroom, then you will receive a $150 credit with Moddler,
which you can use to print a 3D model of anything you like!

This is a great idea
A very generous idea to get the best training for free for everyone.

Cool idea! I just might have to record something... Also if any Window users are looking for a decent free recording app I find http://camstudio.org/ to be pretty good.

That's why it's a $150 credit. You can always add more and get a larger print.

good idea, will try to contribute.

could up the anti if there were some specific topics people needed covered.

although disp mapping seems to be the one question which keeps popping up.

btw would be cool if you won a print of whatever was in the tut

I assume that this has to be a purely Zbrush tutorial. No shifting over to other applications. Am I right?
