After a little test ([ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SskWOLqMLEQ[/ame]), me and a friend did last summer, we're going further with it, doing a full 3 to 4 min short cg film.A interstate chase, between a rx8, a 69 charger and a 2009 camaro and the highway patrol.
We seriously started a month ago with the storyboard , still working on it, and in the meanwhile modeling everything we need.
It isn't going too fast but little by little we're getting there.
Now we got to traffic cars modeling.Of course lowpoly, each around 20-30.000 faces.
-it should have been bullet time
-we used particle flow and afterburn
-just a plane with pathdeform, not very realistic, we will have to figure out something better
-we will both animate different scenes using classic keyframes and for most of the traffic pathconstrain
-we're planing to render in passes, around 10-15 waiting to be composited, and the overall time could be between 10min and 1h depending on the complexity.On a 20 min average about 2 months of night render.
-800x400 and 25fps
-each of us will render different cameras and passes
Old but not dead.
Haven't done much in the meanwhile, but were getting there.
Oh yeah and there's a 75% chance of using the cinema scope format 1280x544-24fps-sound 5.1 .
