Hello,
we have done the first of two movies that will explain how to install an offshore windpark for SIEMENS.
[VIMEO]107153766[/VIMEO]
Was done with Softimage XSI and rendered with Redshift3D.
Ocean was done with aaOcean and aaInteractiveWaves.
Because the aaInteractiveWaves-Plugin is unsupported i had no time for RND, so this is the result. For the second movie i have more time to make a better setup.
Also the foams on boatwakes are a quick and dirty ICE setup.
There is no interaction between water and ship in the scenes the ship will lift up over ocean.
The oceangrid is a set of 800 patterns (instances).
Redshift needs about 2 minutes per frame at full-HD.
Because we had so much CAD-Datas we have converted these datas with MODO.
Particles are rendered with mentalray because of the Particle Volume Shader for Mentalray that Redshift cannot render.
