FXWARS! "Close Encounters" : Jignesh Jariwala,Hybrid

#50

Hello everyone,

Here i go with my final submission.well my short looks like short story cum then trailer.

Story is about the UFO bymistake entered to the earth and crashed near the wheatfield.itā€™s hard for alien to live on earthā€™s environment.it alive for few hours and after that its whole body burned out due to atmosphere.and also Crop circle is found in the middle of wheatfieldā€¦

I used 3ds max 8,combustion and photoshop for particlefx,compositing,lighting etc.I didnā€™t use any plugin for this short.Alien model is by my friend sriram.

Thanks to all for comments and support. i really appriciated it.C & c r welcome.:slight_smile:

Thanks again,
Jigu.

That are some really interesting breakdowns, Jignesh! :slight_smile: Cool to see that you did almost everything within 3dsmaxā€¦ (as such 2D-cammoves can be more efficient to add in After Effects or so, its interesting to sea that you really use every option of 3dsmax!)

Also very cool to see your photo cleanups! :slight_smile: You did a really great job on it, as I didnā€™t notice it at all! :beer:

Good luck & All the best on the vote! :slight_smile:

Thanks Gijs!!!

Yeah i used 3ds max to fake camera motion in imageā€¦As 3ds max camera is more handy to use and easily we can fake camera motionā€¦

i used combustion for final touchup like color correction,glow,bloom etcā€¦and for Dolly/Motion blur on crop circle shotā€¦

I didnā€™t render eveyrthing in different passes coz i m on single machine and wanted to save rendering time as i was suppose to submit everything before first deadlineā€¦:slight_smile:
and yeah all the best!!

whoever winsā€¦ doesnā€™t matter; i learnt a lot through this challange and i know u tooā€¦:slight_smile:
