may I ask how much experience you have with all of the softwares you used, just curious btw the render is awesome !

@crafthive

3 ай бұрын

I couldn't tell you exactly, but I've been doing this stuff for about 10 years

Firstly, this is ridiculous. So so so so good. Secondly, you briefly mentioned that unlike your boss fight video, you didn't break this shot into various passes. I was wondering if breaking down shots is typically how complex shots are handled? My experience is from a mograph perspective, so not typically as complex as this, but I figured you'd be a good person to ask. Would it just be a case of analysing your scene and going from there? I often see shots with massive background environments and assume they're probably separate renders, but definitely curious to hear your thoughts on the matter.

@crafthive

3 ай бұрын

Hey, thank you! So this depends on what kind of work you're doing, but if we're talking about vfx/cgi movies then usually every single shot is always rendered with passes. Usually, you'll setup many passes to isolate parts of the render (i.e: Hero Characters, Background Environment, BG Characters, Atmospherics, FX elements, etc...) And you'd have multiple AOVs (Render Layers like Diffuse/Spec/Normal/Light Selects/etc..) And you'd composite that all back together in Nuke. I'm going to be releasing a video covering how CGI is composited in movies/tv shows soon that will address this exact topic. Stay tuned!

Wow amazing work. You know how to use many industry standard tools. Do you work in the industry? How long did it take you to get to the level you are now with all of these softwares?

@crafthive

3 ай бұрын

Thank you! I've been working in the industry for around a decade now. I like to dabble in lots of different software. It's hard to say how long it takes exactly, I've just been picking things up along the way.

Thanks! I have another video briefly explaining cloth workflows and the difference between the two. Houdini gives us more control and in this case most of my simulations were already in Houdini so it made sense to keep things there. It could've definitely been done in Marvelous too

@crafthive

3 ай бұрын

Thank you! It depends what you want to learn. Houdini is a massive software with a lot to offer. Getting started is easy and learning to create some cool sim setups, or lighting/rendering is also fairly straight forward. It only starts getting complex once you start diving deep into some complex setups

Do you think in 10 years from now when ai softwares like sora will get much better, the animators will still be part of the modeling, texturing, shading and lighting process or they will focus more on guiding the ai and reviewing its results?

@crafthive

3 ай бұрын

This is a big question, and I'm hoping to make a video covering that topic too soon. I think ai is definitely trying to go the route of cutting out the middle man but from the trends we currently see out there I think it'll probably be a good while before it's fully art directable and really replacing us entirely. I'll go more in depth in a video on the topic, but let's say I'm hoping for the best...
