In this playlist, Allegorithmic gives you an introduction to the Substance Designer material-authoring tool. Because of the simple procedural workflows for creating materials, many CG artists currently use the software. Since Substance Designer 6, simplified scanning processes, among other things, have also been integrated, with which you can automatically generate various texture maps from your photographs.
