Jonathan Lampel presents his new animation training that's sold on cmiVFX.
I'm excited to announce my first ever training series that uncovers the power of Blender's 3D particle systems. For beginners and veterans alike, this series thoroughly explains what each type of particle system does, and how particles can interact with other objects. With a firm understanding of newtonian, keyed, boids, fluid, and hair particles combined with force fields, vertex groups, collision objects, and dynamic paint, your creative possibilities are endless. You'll work your way from beginner concepts to advanced techniques, and by the end, you'll be well on your way to creating stunning 3D particle animations.

I finished the whole series and it is just amazing how much stuff I learned from it. I was fiddling with particles before, but kind of like walking in the dark. The course is for intermediate to advanced Blender user. Definitely worth the price!
One thing - unless I missed it, in the snowflake part - you should tell the user that billboards don't work in Cycles! I've spent good 30 min trying to re-create snowflake particles with Cycles. I only found after googling it.
