UFO Animation Tutorial With Blend Shapes

UFO Animation with Blend Shapes by Gabriel Munn

We've uploaded a new tutorial to our expanding Vimeo Tutorial Channel.  This latest tutorial demonstrates how to animate Blend Shapes (also known as Morph Targets) in Maya; you can find the tutorial here at our Vimeo channel.  

Create a simple object (a cube) and turn it into a shape-shifting UFO - as in this example by Escapee Gabriel Munn.  Blend Shapes, which are used extensively in facial rigging, are a simple animation technique that can yield impressive results.
