I learned a lot by recreating Stephen Blair's examples from http://xsisupport.com (I believe they are on Vimeo here https://vimeo.com/user595557 also). Plus recreate stuff posted here on the list and over at http://www.si-community.com/community/index.php. I did one or two a day for about a year - learned a ton.

Even though it's dated, the majority of it is still very useful and can help you get up to speed. -Paul On Thu, Jul 18, 2013 at 12:13 PM, Stephen Davidson <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: When you first open up Softimage a window opens up called Netview. In that Netview window, there are two links listed: "Essential Skills Videos - Getting Started" (this is a good place to start) and "Softimage YouTube Learning Channel" If you left click on "Essential Skills Videos - Getting Started", Netview will open up a menu of videos about certain beginner subjects. Left clicking on any of these subjects will launch a movie that explains that particular subject. If you left click on "Softimage YouTube Learning Channel", Netview will open up you default internet browser to the Softimage YouTube Learning Channel. I can see that other helpful users have posted many other sites that contain Softimage tutorials. If you need more, you can use a web browser search engine. Google is a great search engine. All you have to do is go to www.Google.com<http://www.Google.com> and type in the words "Softimage Tutorials" in the box marked "search" and Google will list even more websites that contain Softimage Tutorials. If you have any problems accessing these websites, just ask here in the discussion group, and I'm sure many, here, will jump at the chance to assist you.
