KATANA

A quick and easy guide to getting started in Foundry’s Katana, and how to utilise this powerful tool in your own projects

Discover the core concepts of working with Katana and its powerful toolset

Learning a new tool can often be challenging, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed trying to determine which features are the most important for your workflow. If you’ve worked in a studio environment before, you’ll be more accustomed to different software, tools and features, but even so, you may find yourself in a similar position as I was – struggling to build my own projects from scratch.

It all boils down to the basics. No matter how experienced you are, these are easy to overlook, especially when you’re eager to get started quickly. While this may sound trivial to some, pulling yourself back to the start and building a better understanding of the basic features of a tool can pave the way for stronger workflow foundations later on – you never know when you’re going to need those skills.
