Hello all, :beer:

this is my first participation at FXWars and i try to create an interesting FX:wip:

Idea:

I will try to superimpose a vehicle that will take fuel

script:

Vehicle in a conduit of light, it teleport to the outside.
It will take fuel. it stops at a station.
A robot appears out to land and change the fuel, and the vehicule go and teleport.

Looking cool, not too sold on the background though. Just my $0.02

Looking good ChrisD01. Is this render going to be final for your shot or is it just a test?

ChrisD01

Hello

Cyborg,

the tunel is a warping zone( like babylon5 ), i want a simple background for contrast with the phote for the real world of the second part of animation.

Gotmilk,

yes is the first test of the animation , it's only a one passe render for the test but the style of the lighting and color for the tunel is the good, i'm adjust all element (light, reflect, motion blur, DOF etc) for un very special ambiance

thank's for your comment

cheers:beer:

The design of your car is very special... reminds me on Voyager ;-)

Would be cool if the car goes to lightspeed after a while?

What about the desert scene?

ChrisD01
10-21-2008, 03:48 AM
Hello Rasher73

the car is a different course of inspiration, but it is true that there is a little spaceship voyager, I had not seen:)

not the car will not go faster because it is located already at very high speed in the tunnel, but in a time accelerate.

for the desert scene, the car will teleport the tunnel to the desert to take fuel

I post the soryboard soon

hello all,

a little update with the first part of the "oil station" and integration to the desert

hi man,

I really like your model, bt I think the scale of the building isn't right. it looks like a miniature. I would buy the car, but not the building. maybe it's better if you put the building in the background

ChrisD01
10-22-2008, 10:02 AM
Hello Marcus, thank's for your reply.

The station is not a bulding but an industrial robot, I must add the robot arm and billboard

you have a great looking project: tho in my opinion it looks like 2 projects in 1, maybe because you are using 2 different visual languages... the first in the tunnel looks like all 3D "animatrix" and the second just looks like a real life movie "5th element".
the desert part is my favorite, the mixture with real footage makes the shot perfect!


congratulations on the car ad gas station design, and good luck on the votes.

Hello Nikkons, thank you for your comments and for your encourangement,

At the beginning I have two ideas and I decided to blend the two different worlds in the action , it's an interesting challenge for me.

cheers:)

Ahh, with your last post, the hirez pic. it all makes sence.
Maybe there is a bit to much color in the Tunnelseqence compared to the desert scene?

greets rasher73

ChrisD01
10-25-2008, 05:08 AM
hello Rasher73,

yes, the colors are very live because I wanted a big difference between the real world and the Tunnel of the other dimension, as in Babylon5

see the image below
