marQiemarQ Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Hey guys...this is a group project that I've been working on for a school assignment. I used Houdini for all of the FX in the piece. Let me know what you think! http://vimeo.com/6368789 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomad Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Hi marQiemarQ !!! ...not bad, but add more debris, dusts, sparks from the wheels, flying trash for the dynamic.... hehe ))) love such stuff ))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratman Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Sorry about that... It's set to public now. http://vimeo.com/6368789 Hey Marq, good start, but I'd recommend you run these passes a little more on the comp side, the dust could use a little more work on the lighting, they seem a bit billow, needs more turbulence and transparency on them. As for the meteors, same thing, I'd bring them into comp and add a bit of glow to the head of the trail, It helps sell the illusion a lot more. Hope this helps! -Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macha Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Modelling, animation, fx, etc, well done for putting it all together. It's a complex task. But there's a lack of loving attention in the motions. It almost looks like everything has been left on standard bezier curves with equally spaced keys. I'm not much of an animator but I'd say you should put some more zest into everything that moves. Make it a bit more snappy. It's probably a much better way to improve the overall look of the work than adding more particles or samples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marQiemarQ Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 thanks for all the feedback and comments! Macha, I used the Craft Animation plugin in Maya to do the car animation. The only keyframed shot was the last one...where the car is swerving, but I see what you mean though. I'll keep you guys posted when I make some updates.

stevenong Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 When the car spins to a stop at the end, some dust cloud off the tires will be nice. Cheers! steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
