Alias Basics: My Alias Workflow

[@kamprivate8133]

I'm a car designer for myself, I must admit that yours is absolutley awesome

[@signerai03]

How to became designer

[@jaroslavkormanec8062]

School is the best first step :) second one is an internship and third one first smal jobs on diferent projects during your school (not only automotive) (helping someone with his project or some small industrial design offers and so on) ... important is to learn some workflow basics and theory of design... also very very very !! importand is skill and practise in sketching and some 3d software (alias blender maya doesnt matter) because is important of understad of shape in space... is also good to check out some designers time lapses, behance profiles or podcasts and also consultations with experience people ( not only automotive designer )

[@azzoboj]

I met Nurbs when Rhino was at version 2. Complete newbie with a fixed point in mind: car bodies. Started hundreds, never completed one. You make it look so simple and obvious that I wanna start again. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@HandleBar3D]

Did you ever start again?

[@azzoboj]

@@HandleBar3D Nope. Due to my job I'm far from my laptop, and it's actually really outdated 😔

[@piaoingrou]

Yes, a tutorial step by step to model a car would be awsome. Maybe it's very long, but we are eager to see that. There are no better people than you to do this free on youtube.

[@Ferocious_Imbecile]

19:40. Nice! I can see why it took 2 years just to learn Alias alone after all the other knowledge you'd accrued with Maya and Max and Modo. Alias is very deep to master, in it's own NURBS way it's as deep as Houdini is for FX.

[@josefludvikbohm5390]

Incredibly useful tutorial - finaly someone is doing this correctly on youtube! This approach is also called "box method" - guess you can see why. Thanks!

[@HandleBar3D]

Josef Ludvík Böhm you're welcome. I agree with you, many of the tutorials I see seems like students teaching students. A lot of misinformation out there. I'll try to break down every step to showcase more structured approaches.

[@enniclas]

You Sir, are a superstar. Thanks for the upload!

[@francescos7361]

Thanks Maya , Arnold and Alia are the best software for design concepts and innovate

[@Alopin]

I really like what you do lol 😂 You’re the most motivating teacher ever Big appreciates

[@fakerwater9426]

非常感谢！Thank you very much, I have been looking for this type of instructional video for a long time, until find your video, I know that I found what I finally want.

[@simpernchong]

Awesome surfacing... Thanks for the video.

HI.. Thank you for posting the video. would it be possible to design organic shapes with Alias Speedform. I would prefer Modo, but i don't have access to modo.

[@harkaranvir]

Love your humor man! Cheers :D

[@vitalion9235]

hello, please tell me where can I take a course on studying the Alias Studio program?

[@AriVovp]

Man, I would to put your design to reality. It’s better than Lamborghini or Ferrari or Aston martin. The back is spectacular

[@JayTheMachine]

Your work is absolutely amazing, you teach soo damn good. I learned entire software from you and I admire you soo much, but. I kinds Don't like your design, I mean I love it 80% but personally I can suggest better stuff for 20% design,. And yes, I love overall shape

[@davidwolter8541]

Incredibly useful, thanks! Keep up the good work!

[@quantahoang]

I'm pretty new at 3d modeling and kinda learning from poly modeling method, I don't know much about automotive modeling but also interested in it, sorry if this question is amateur, but when you turn on the wireframe(?) I notice they look like polygons connect to each other, but some part like the surface between the wheel arc and fender kinda like an N-Gon. yet the whole surface just work and the transition just smooth.

[@kaiz650]

Do you have recommendations for other good channels/tutorials and which should be enjoyed with care?

[@Happyturtlebeach]

This is not basic. I have no idea what's going on or even what you're trying to do. You just dropped me in the middle of an ocean.

[@HandleBar3D]

😂 my apologies. I wish I would have been a bit more conscious about that when I made this video. I think at the time I didn’t have a good understanding of what is the basics to others. I think I got better along the way though and maybe my cell phone series does a better job. Hope this didn’t discourage you, this ain’t basic at all.

[@kshitijrasal5086]

Exactly!!! Nothing basic in this video...

[@bertchiu9265]

This is “upper division” Alias … for graduate students! 🥴

[@arshad5850]

@@HandleBar3D designing is my favourite job but there are fewer vacancies

[@neelbakaraniya2187]

Which software do you use for this modelling. Alias speedform, alias design, alias studio ...... And please can you do a complete tutorial step by step to model a car.

[@jupitereye4322]

I started with NURBS modeling in Maya, but we were training to make patch models without trimmed surfaces. This was extremely tough because all lines needed to have a good flow, always quads and tangents continuation in order to get perfect good quality. Maya of course is not designed for professional CAD drawing, but that is why it was so interesting to find ways for it to work. I've avoided polygons for a long time until one day I switched to polygonal modeling and now I kinda forgot a lot. I wish to enter the class A modeling profession and I am not sure what to get into. Catia, Solidworks, Rhinocerous, Alias...

[@nicolasleonnarino3159]

I've been using Solidworks for 4 years now and it is useful for optimizing product design via FES, topology optimization, packaging, etc. However, I started learning Alias ​​to master surfacing, some surfacing projects are a headache to work with in Solidworks, you have to figure out what is the subject you want to gain experience in so you can choose a software.

[@ruslanpala4424]

Siemens NX is more best for surface G1,G2,G3 than solidworks.

[@Brucedesign]

nice , ive also darken my background to see the curves in contrast, but i didnt know you can do that for the UI as well! thanks for the upload

[@achrafbouziane7802]

how do you darken the background

[@light3739]

I am a Rookie..So Can anyone plz tell me the Difference between Alias Concept & Surface? and which one should I download to do such amazing modeling?

[@yehmausam]

which software r u using for car modeling ? alias concept alias speedform alias surface alias autostudio alias design

[@HandleBar3D]

ransom s in this video I’m using Autostudio but you can also use Surface, those are the only ones I use

[@yehmausam]

thanks sir for your reply

[@riccardocapellino9078]

spent years modeling cars with blender and I find this kind of black magic autodesk software just now

[@toufonglo3228]

I love your video. Can you make a video about moving CV and blending surface proprietary?

[@souhailla10]

it would be great if you make a tutorial with 2021 to create the lines of a car in the first place.. so people can learn the basics of this very difficuilt and complicated program

[@tollleknollle]

Awesome content!

[@sungerbob1786]

dear sir, i have a question, im a vfx artist working in the advertisement industry. mostly tv commercials. i use maya for 3d modelling, and some fusion 360 for hard surface modeling. and im a motorcycle fan and i want to design motorcycles, maybe even produce my own design one day. i know some motorcycle companies use alias. so, what makes alias special for automotive and motorcycle industry? do you think i should switch to alias for this purpose?

[@peterdrazdiakhansen4289]

Like watching Mozart on the keyboard with all those hotkeys haha

[@SoaringSimulator]

Is incredible that Alias, after 20yr, you can still get stack 10 min making a simple corner and do not fix the problem! must be automatic.(9:49>17:17 still not look good)

[@artistryartistry7239]

There are many Autodesk products that have the name "Alias" in them. Which one is this series for? Thanks :) Also great content!

[@HandleBar3D]

Artistry Artistry this is Alias Autostudio but you can use Alias Surface as well

[@badboy17pt]

Do you do your rappid prototyping on alias too ? Or you use something else for that

[@HandleBar3D]

Depending on the project, I'll use Alias for automotive stuff, Rhino for more product stuff and modo for more organic stuff.

[@Puzzifoto]

Please i can download this model?

[@richasharma1100]

No, I want to know which is best for 3d modelling

[@HandleBar3D]

Richa Sharma depends what you want to model, if it’s cars and products Alias is the best, if it’s mechanical stuff like guns, fusion 360 is great for that.

[@brezovprut4431]

Does Alias use NURBS or T-Splines?

[@HandleBar3D]

brezov prut both now, I’m using nurbs in most my videos but starting 2020 I think, they added sub-d modeling which is based off of t-spline

[@richasharma1100]

Which software is best Autodesk 360 or alias

[@HandleBar3D]

Richa Sharma I use alias

[@dinusb5407]

nice video, can u able to share your user preference

[@jimdeasy]

This is the most “real” alias video on the whole internet. Wanna learn? Get used to spending a whole day on one blend. Fighting, failing, trying again and starting over. It’s the hardest lesson to learn about class A modeling. Shit takes TIME. This ain’t no subD, blender cad. Strap in and get ready to dive into the smallest detail on your model. Ray…how about a repost of this with the new corner blend tool from your new videos! Maybe 5 min max on that last nightmare blend.

[@LONDONBOY10]

Damn is it harder than blender? godamn blender so trash sometimes u take hours bro just to align some edges and polygons to keep the fluxe correctly, the reflections be hella weird if you dont align your polygons inna perfect way, its a bit stressful, ALIAS is harder? thought it was easier and CAD focused...??

[@jonasthegreat6508]

can you send me a file aleady of that car on my gmail?

[@jitenvalecha2709]

Are you a car designer

[@HandleBar3D]

Nope

[@picosdrivethru]

this is so brutally impossible to do in sub-d. always jealous of you alias guys. not that its any easier in alias by any means but at least the tech supports beautiful surfacing and highlight control.

[@HandleBar3D]

I started my career as a polygon modeler and once I found nurb modeling I knew it was the only way to get perfect surface control. It's a hard journey but understanding sub-D modeling makes it a bit easier than starting with no experience.
