CLUE FOR NEXT FXWARS Challenge...


#21

The reason i said 2 months is because Roberto normally extend deadline, 1 month is no enough time to do a good shot most entrys wont finish on time… when people can only work 2 or 3 hours a day and water is really difficult anyway…

I think I will try this challenge !!!

Please no live action! That will not enable me to participate in the challenge (which is a reason why I declined from this one). A month would be just fine!:slight_smile:

Thanks,

Yeah, I too would like a challange without CG this time… It will still be great VFX shots IMO. But two months may be better as most of us may only have some hours a day, at most, to work with this. Better to end up with something nice and useful for a reel than something less useful. Umm, what did I just say… Nevermind the thought was good…

Cheers 3DEffects btw, hope all is good with you.

Take care guys,

#25

#26

Let’s hope for the 100% CG this time!


#28

OK guys, you get A Month and a 1/2.
One month to setup the shot, 2 weeks to render.

How about that?

Sounds like a plan to me, a good compromise. Nice of you to point out that we should render the last two weeks. Somehow most of us seems to postpone that till the last minute… :rolleyes:

#31

Sounds perfect to me! Yeah and good choice on the render time!:smiley:


#32

hey Roberto quick question
this challenge will be personal or can be done in a group ?


#33

Team entries are encouraged.
Looking forward to it!

#34

so , it will be a fully cg ocean stuff ?


#35

That is the plan.

You can add live action if you want, BUT, the key of the challenge is to do a CG ocean.

#36

This one is gonna be most challanging ever…


#37

Ok I am writing the rules, but here is a preview of them.

It will be a simulation challenge, so realism is key.
there will be three categories for the challenge:
[ul]
[li]THE BEACH (Waves gently rolling on a beach.)[/li][li]THE OPEN OCEAN (Ocean waves. )[/li][li]THE SHIP (A ship moving up an down in the Ocean.)[/li][/ul]Extra bonus if you can simulate storm weather on any of the three
categories. You may add live action people walking in the virtual ocean, or in the deck), but the key is the simulation.
