Learning Alias sponsors the Education of children in Nepal. This is Deepana and we need to raise money to put her through Nursing College in Kathmandu. Learning Alias Blog is a free service, but if you would like to show your appreciation, please make a small donation. 100% of your money will go directly to pay Deepana’s college fees. Without the help of sponsors in the developed world, Deepana would receive no education whatsoever, as she comes from a remote Hymalayan village. Thank You, graham bullock.

Hi,

While the major studios might be clamouring for a program that will automatically convert mesh to nurbs, no software could replace the human element needed to reproduce missing bits that weren’t in the original mesh or produce a surface structure that knows where and when to be overbuilt, all vital parts for 3-D production.Also the mesh you are given which usually will have been scanned from a clay model will have defects in the surface. It will have copied cracks in the clay and whilst the standard of clay models is typically very high- if it was modeled to an agressive deadline there will often be areas where surfaces are inaccurate from the left to the right hand side of the model or where surfaaces may have undulations. The Alias Surfacer has the job of identifying these issues to the Designer and then putting all of them right.

The Alias Surfacer depends on the skill of the clay modeler – but takes the surfaces a stage further in terms of symmetry and highlighting just to name 2 areas.

95% of students are accepted into Alias modeling jobs with companies such as Lotus/GM/Fiat etc.
