Rhapsody with James: FINAL!

Well, as the title says…. It’s final!!! I’m looking at the festival lists and where to submit it but more on that on the coming posts. Right now I’m just happy it’s finished! Share → Tweet

Animation: “Shrink…”

To break a bit from ‘Rhapsody with James’ I’m posting some of my work that I did at Animation Mentor. This is a dialogue animation assignment I did in classes 3&4. Share → Tweet

Vecer

Added new commercial to ‘Portfolio’ section. A lot of floating newspaper! Most shots had real newspaper on wires. But those that had to move in some way (like opening or closing) they were done later in post. I worked mainly on the technical part of the newspaper and a bit of animation (shots marked with ‘Animation’ in the top right corner). The main part of it was controlled by joints which were driven by different controls. On top of that there were blendshapes to allow control over different detail parts... Read The Rest →

Petrol – Primadiesel

I added the Petrol – primadiesel commercial to ‘portfolio’ section. The goal was to build cars covered with flowers. Since there were a wide range of shots with cars there were 5 CG car chassis build each covered with 2 level of detail flowers and for one shot another extra detail level. The flower placement was calculated using particles and then manually fixing odd spots. After that each car was transformed into 3 pieces of flower polymeshes since it was easier to handle a few meshes than thousands of particles... Read The Rest →

Reorder attributes and raMelFunctions

I added two MEL scripts to ‘downloads’ section: The first one is ‘Reorder attributes’ which allows to reorder custom attributes in the channel box. The second one is ‘raMelFunctions’ which for now only has one script but will be filled later with other functions that you can use from command line. But most importantly other scripts use it (like Reorder attributes) to work properly so you need to install those too if you plan to use the scripts that are dependant on them. Share → Tweet

Radenska – oasis

I added another commercial under ‘portfolio’ section. This time I was working as an effects technical director creating sand effects. Click on the image below to see the commercial or check the ‘CG Work’ section. Share → Tweet

Mite

Another commercial added to ‘portfolio’ section on which I worked as a character TD. All the detail controls were added to the front of the character since it was standing still and only simple ik controls were used for the legs. For the arms FK was used. To help magnification of the eye effect a blendshape was created which was rendered separately for the magnifying glass pass. Share → Tweet
