As you may know 3D artists are a little bit crazy (and egocentric also…) :-D
For example, here you can see Lorenzo holding his creature


Lorenzo and Herbert

and Mattia, playing with the two main characters, have made this composition

Hi everybody!
The short we are working on is almost finished.
We have to complete some animations, and refine lighting in few shots.
In these days, we will start rendering.
I (Gherardo) am actually working on an original music for ending titles and I’m also collecting audio files for the sound design.

I hope we could finish the whole project the next weeks -> Continue reading ‘News from “Eleven O’Clock”’->

Spark Motion Blur user interface

2 Comments

The first version of Spark motion blur node we are improving is almoust finished.
This node calculates objects’ movement between two frames,
creating subframes or slices (as we called it).
Now we are running several tests to check the effectiveness of this node and we are working on the user interface.
This is how the node currently looks.

The following part of the post is in Italian. Below you will find also the English translation.

Per realizzare il cortometraggio utilizzaremo tutti software free:
Blender per il 3D, GIMP per l’editing delle immagini ed Ardour per il sound design. -> Continue reading ‘Opening for new Trickle Project’->

Let’s do rendering!

1 Comment

The “Eleven o’clock” project is going on well.
We spent much time to organize some files (as we said in the preview posts the organization of files is fundamental!!) but now it’s time to render!
Mattia still working on animation. He had completed the 9th shot. All the shots are 22 so he still has a lot of work to do.



In the meanwhile we are rendering the completed shots.
So we can see what is wrong and what is right, and we have the time to the necessary corrections.
Here you can see a preview of first shot before and after shading and lighting (thanks to our shader Davide).



Lesson n.04: Lighting

Add a comment

Here we are with another Blender lesson.
This time we speaks about lighting: we will see the different types of lamps and how to make an effective illumination using the spot lamp.
Hope you enjoy it!
