February 2009 Shots breakdown :
TV Feature – L’Ecole du Pouvoir
:: Maya ::
– nCloth flag simulation
Short film – La Main des Maîtres :
:: Houdini ::
– Particles with metaballs and volume shader to create smoke, rendered in Mantra.
– Particles with particlefluidsurface to create blood, rendered in Mantra
– Particles to instantiate ammo, rendered in Mantra
– Rigid bodies to shatter glasses, rendered in Mantra
:: Maya ::
– nCloth simulation for clothes (coat, scarf, straps…)
– nCloth simulation for curtains
– nCloth simulation for cables of a machine
– nCloth simulation for falling papers
– 2D fluids and particles with sprites for small smoke effects.
– Particles to instantiate debris, rendered in MentalRay
– Also done a MEL UI completely integrated in Maya (near the channel box) to manage all the characters : controls manager, pose and animation store and copy between characters, animation symmetry…
– … and animated most of the 3D characters of the short film, using this MEL UI.
Feature – Yona Yona Penguin :
:: Houdini ::
– Chunks and debris modeling for parts of a mountain exploding
– DOP Simulation of rigid bodies for different explosions
:: XSI ::
– Particles to create smoke, lava and sparks for explosions, rendered in MentalRay
– Particles to create foam effect, rendered in MentalRay
– Particles to create bats freezing, rendered in MentalRay
– Crowd setup using animation cycles, and particles to create a tornado, rendered in MentalRay
Short film – Bric à Brac
:: Maya ::
– Rigging and development of a MEL UI like the one of “La Main des Maîtres” to manage all the characters.
Commercial – Peugeot 308
:: XSI ::
– Character rigging (with Jscript UI) and animation of hands and sail
– Other small effects (2D fluids to create foam, texturing to add a road on a live plate…)
