Kelly “Kat” Myers is back with another installment in the Practical Production Techniques series! In this installment, “Capital ship combat techniques” Kat walks you through the process of building out a shot using BattleStar Galactica style methods to pit Cylon Basestars against the Galactica herself with guns blazing along with missiles, flak shield effects, explosions and more. This video covers several unseen techniques from the show including the flak shield HV and PFX creation methods and demonstrates how the “big guns” on the Galactica were set up. Jammed packed with goodies (scene files, HVs are included with the content!) this video runs 4.5 hours and Kat is just warming things up with the new TV and Film VFX series that Kat has been developing for release here on Liberty3D.com over the last couple of months. This is the first video of that series and there are more to come. So if you have ever wanted to throw metal against metal in a big ship dogfight, this video will help you along with your efforts and then some.
