Hello all!
I’m not particularly excited about the google results I got looking for a 1-on-1 tutor (the good ones were old), and I noticed a few others have posted here before so I thought I’d do the same.
I’ve been coding in 3D applications like Cinema 4D and Maya for a while, now, and started hobbying about in Unity a little over a year ago to start my desired transition from TV/advertising into games. At this point I’m plenty confident in C#/general Unity programming, and I have made my own shader before. However, I want to expand my shader chops from basic to intermediate, and I don’t want to handle this particular learning task solo like I have everything else (like I imagine most of us have).
Examples of what I’d like to learn:
- Noise/height maps
- Anything procedural (shader-wise)
- Querying/creating arbitrary object properties (ie Temperature) with a shader, if possible
My suggested method:
- Skype + Skype’s share screen function seems the obvious route
- $40/hour, negotiable
- I’m extremely flexible, schedule-wise, but I’m thinking… weekly 1-hour sessions? I’m in Los Angeles, which is GMT - 7.00 (that is, seven hours behind London).
- Payments via Venmo or SquareCash (apps). If you have neither, they’re trustworthy and extremely easy to set up. My friends and I use them all the time; you receive sent funds immediately and cashing out takes about 2 business days (this is not an elaborate Venmo commercial, heheh, I just really like them).
Of course I wouldn’t expect someone to know the answer to absolutely every question I’ve ever had, but, naturally, please be experienced in the area 
And I’m sure everyone would prefer money over bartering, but if you’re already rich and happen to be looking for a tutor in, say, Cinema 4D (C4D in general or even python scripting in C4D), lemme know and we could discuss a trade possibility. Could be fun.
Ok, thanks a million for reading, everyone! A pm is probably better than posting, here, but either way I’ll respond by pm and post here when/if I find someone.
PS: Should/could this be in the Graphics → Shaders forum? [Heheh, I hope so.]
PPS: I’m a nice, normal person, promise!
