Ok --
First the disclaimers... I am NOT a power shake user. I had a great sugar-daddy purchase the program for something we needed to do once. I've kept it around and know a LITTLE about the program. But I like doing little tutorials and someone a few months ago here asked about a Morphing Tutorial.
I've always avoided that node because there were a few things that I just couldn't wrap my head around...
(BIG TIP -- LISTEN-)
Until I read the MANUAL!!!
It's really a simple node and powerful at that!!
So -- this tutorial is still-based, but the technique would work for Motion Clips as well.
For you interested in SHAKE, and those newbies who already have it, this tutorial might be just what you want to see it in action.
All you power users... Please don't watch... my workflows and methods might be poor at best, and I really can't stand the feedback -- makes me sad. (hehe)
Anyway -- it's 25 minutes long because so if you plan on watching it more than once please subscribe to it via iTunes or RSS... or go ahead and download it -- didn't edit it like I normally do because by the time my 1 year old had interrupted me for the 3rd time and I had to start over -- I just decided to keep going. Then it was too late to try and chop out the slow parts.
So -- for what it's worth... here you go:
