Not All Models Are Equal

Many years ago, a very green first time director wanted to make a swashbuckler action adventure film along the lines of “Raiders of the Lost Ark”, “Star Wars,” and “Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow”. He rolled up his sleeves, and shot an epic on 85% green screen. His solution to everything was, “We’ll fix it in post.” Not only did this become his standard answer, it became his mantra. And then one day, the dreaded post-production process started. The director I am an talking about is me, andRead More

I just sent Luke home after he had pulled about 18 hours straight. I am here doing some last minute tests before heading home myself. All we have left to do for our next batch of renders is do some object swap outs, tripple check everything for placement, light the scene for key, fill, bounce (no big deal – I can do that in my sleep and probably will have to) , set up the break out scenes and throw it on the farm. I hope the power holds forRead More

TFD Advanced Concepts and Projects – Clouds

“Why is it so hard to make freaking clouds!?” – That is a question that has been bothersome for practically every single LightWave3D artist for decades. Solutions to producing clouds in LightWave including its own HyperVoxels and Skytracer tools or plug-ins/connectable apps such as E-On Software’s (now part of Bentley Systems) Ozone and Vue – all have massive drawbacks. These range from ease of use, photorealism (or lack there of), lack of control, render speed (slow), stability and cost. There has always been a “catch” with the tools out there intendedRead More
