VFX this Dumb Shouldn't Work this Well

Фильм және анимация

VFX this Dumb Shouldn't Work this Well. Today I'm using some pretty bad footage and basic 3D models / Animation to create a massive Star wars: The Old Republic inspired Scene. I grew up watching the old SWTOR cinematics and they have inspired me a lot.
I used Blender and Hitfilm Pro to create my VFX.

    Dumb VFX are my favorite, some of the shots that have made me go "this is so stupid there's no way this will actually look good" end up being my favorites. Sometimes it's just fun to see what we can get away with.

    That 'twisting the light' trick to turn on a saber is absolutely genius.

    Dumb VFX are best VFX 👌And that relighting is delicious omfg Btw you don't have to re-render everything in EEVEE to get the glow, you can just add a glare node in the compositor. And ofc you can still choose to subtract everything else from the glow layer and render it out in a separate file if you want the flexibility in post.

    You missed one vertex when you made the lightsaber tip and I can't unsee it 😄

    Yeh, I noticed I thought it was kind of funny too how the origin of the light saber was moved to the base.

    Inspiring. Hollywood would be able to make much better movies, when they were being more inventive and economic with their VFX and instead put more money into good stories. Also I love, when people use the tools at hand and get the absolute best out of them while at the same time cutting the work to the absolute necessary minimum.

    Another excellent video. For your close-up (with the 'orange' light -- I wonder how a sharper light with more contrast in the shadow would have looked). Love your style and love these breakdowns of short scenes. Thanks for the effort that goes into making these.
