Hi, can i know how did you create the atompsheric effect for your planet earth? Which post software did you use?

Wow, this is really a high quality production! It looks very promising so far! I do hope you finish it in time! Or at least see it ever finished. But I have a good feeling about this.
Good Luck!

Nice work guys 
when you get the time I would like to know more about how this camera mapping method was carried out. I have an idea what it could be but I am not a 100 percent sure.

Hey Raylistic,
for the earth scene from space we used After Effects and the atmosphere was done in two steps. First we made a glow area around the earth with solids and masks and then we used an adjustment layer with blur and screen mode to give the soft atmosphere look inside the earth.
Thanks Rickmeister,
we already had planned to finished on time but as we got untill monday, we are making some adjustments and fixing some problems.
Hello ParamountCell,
actually it was done with 3d layers in after effects, i can show some pictures of the viewports for you. We had to separate each building in the picture and rebuild the image behind it and then we give different Z positions to the layers and animate a 3d camera. We were thinking about using 3d max but as we had many scenes to finish we had to choose the fastest sollution.
Hey Thiago (tc)
See if you recognize our actors… and my avatar…
Good luck to everyone,
Thiago

Hi, yes I would love to see the viewports! 
It sounds very similar to how I did my city, I wanted to make the streets in maya but that would have taken too long. I wish you all the best, your work looks fab:)

The final clip looks very good and professional, so again! Great work!
I was wondering, how did you make Earth? Is there somewhere a good tutorial around how to make it the way you did? It looked very high-quality like, nice and blue.

Hey Marlon,
How is everything? Are you still traveling?
Sometimes we still listen to “Fada querida” just for the old days.
Our great singer, director and philosofer, we hope you come visit us sometimes and we are waiting for the next chapter of “The snake and the butterfly”, maybe it could turn into a short movie…
Great job with the 3d and storyboard it really made the difference!!!
Thanks Holzmeister,
Did you enjoyed the “Oh my god!” scene? hehehe
As i told to cadinho, we could make that paintball match…
Hey Rickmeister,
Thanks for the support, well as we made too many scenes we had decided to use the less 3d possible, so our solution was to create 3d layers in after effects using still pictures. We did this in many scenes also for the earth scenes, aerial scenes and smoke in the 3rd last scene. For the smoke we used a turbulence displace effect that gives the noisy movement to a smoke photo.
Grande Thiago (Dantas)!!!
How is everything in Spain??
I really wanna see a picture of the inferno “tent” room!!
Gostastes de la “Tierra” con la explosion? hehehe
Hope to see you soon my friend!!!
Thanks Nikkons and ParamountCell,
We are recovering from some hard working nights and we will post some details soon.
Hey Thiago (tc),
Bruno, Pedro and Leandro are thinking about going to sigrapph this year, but i dont know yet if i am going too.
Thanks Roberto Ortiz,
We really enjoyed this competition. Even been very busy at work we managed to complete the animation. We know we left many details unfinished but the overall result made us really glad. We think this challenge was a great opportunity to learn and work as a team!! All the results were very impressive, so congratulations to all the other artists and hope we have time to be on the next one.
