The aim of this project is to simulate and composite elements on a boat. I replaced the banner on the side, added a flag and particles.
The sequence included two zoom. A zoom in at the beginning and a zoom out at the ending.
The aim of this project is to simulate a big explosion on an empty field.
The aim of this project is to simulate a simple fracture on a road. The workflow includes cracks, particles and a good compositing phase.
Original traffic has been masked and some elements have been time remapped to simulate acceleration, stop and reverse speed.
The aim of this project is to simulate a car crash. The workflow includes a lot of fractures and deformations based on physical materials properties.
During the rendering phase i decided to output deep images for a better volumetric integration and color corrections / holdout mattes. Motion blur was added using 2d motion vectors and interpolated with scripts using deep data. Deep points also allowed me to create a realistic bokeh effect through the volume of lights rays and particles.
The original simulation was 120 fps long and sampled each 0.5 frame. I used alembic chaches to bake out all vertices variations due to deformations.
After that I applied a retime of about 20% of the original speed. The samples were interpolated linearly.
The final composition ended with an aspect ratio of 2.35, resembling the anamorphic widescreen used in films.
