Stadium

Another return to Semi-realism. Supposed to be a bit cartoon-ey, especially given that I'm animating about 30k shuffling people... Happy with the result so far. I've automated the random shuffling of the crowd, and have rendered out a HDR pano from the boxing ring, so that I can easily animate/render/post any characters in the ring without re-rendering the entire scene.

Daily work

So, I haven't blown the dust off this blog-thingy for too long. I am still working, and still cranking out the spots.

So, to actually use this thing, I'll start posting up projects I find at least partially interesting. Starting with today's:




Doing an animation where the camera swings from outside to inside and some red arrows bounce around demoing heat retention/reflection.

First time I've done realistic renders in a long time, so I'm having fun sharpening up that skill set. Plus, it's really fun to see my work in HD on the big 52in HD plasma monitor!
