I for one welcome our Borg-bot overlords ;) (sorry Leendert...your last sentence brought this to image to mind so vividly that I laughed out loud and had to share...no hard feelings)
I think it is fine to show some simple stuff too, but these are " *transition*" videos; it was not "beneath me" so much as beneath what this video series is supposed to be. So, by all means show the graham-crackers-and-milk information, just be sure to mix in with some meatier concepts to keep the viewing worthwhile. There are plenty of "I'm new to 3D and here is how I get a cube" videos. I gave my first impression, and you only get to make a first impression once. So, hopefully there will be more production oriented concepts such as good referencing and asset practices marbled with the fluff concepts like changing the shape of a node. A good example it how UV editing is different in Maya in how you have to cut and sew islands vs. the toggle button that it is in Softimage (I haven't checked if this is still true in Maya 2015, but I am assuming that it is) On Mon, May 12, 2014 at 1:43 PM, Leendert A.
