@KyleRexJones Any hill will be like when they take the ship out in galaxy quest

Can’t wait to see this baby crunch its bumper when it encounters even the slightest hill.

@beforesmag @Blizzard_Ent @Diablo Look at how identical those ball and charts are. Love to see it!

Behind the scenes of @Blizzard_Ent’s @Diablo #DiabloIV: #VesselOfHatred trailer --> how the characters and environments were made, plus how a photographed chicken carcass gave the team inspiration for the look inside a titan. New at @beforesmag: beforesandafters.com/2024/10/08/beh…

@beforesmag Well maybe staying on the pavement but...

There is NOTHING he cannot do. theguardian.com/sport/2024/oct…

@scottderrickson "AI Director" 🫢🤢

@beforesmag My bad that may actually be blue screen? Yikes if it is green screen.

@beforesmag I love the care taken in not despilling all the grass.

Why

@hart_led Trust the process they say. Well, this certainly is a very beautiful piece! The colors are *perfection* and your lines are silky smooth. You definitely captured a mood with this one, I love this!

honestly trying to paint is anxiety inducing because i feel so lost every time its pretty tho, i think i was kind of in an lotr kinda mood

@CDisillusion Opening ritual: Twist the cap off and then drink the gram of "juice" the top little bit would still have in it.

The purple guy was my spirit animal.

What if instead of “X, formerly known as Twitter” we start calling it “Twitter, currently known as X”

And now for the latest instalment in #actorsholdingtheballsandcharts... #twisters @ILMVFX

@hanalyst Hope scrolling feels scary but I prefer it to doom scrolling.

So grateful that between the Olympics and Walz we are in a new Wholesome Meme Era

As you can hear in this full recording, the Wilhelm scream guy was doing a bad job until the recordist told him to do it better, resulting in the iconic sound effect. So everyone, give your supervisor a li'l kiss on the cheek this Friday.

@Bbbn192 I'm guessing the next post is going to be a myth busters ballistic gel explosion test?

Transparent Arm #b3d

@dickij10 @beforesmag Definitely looks like the did 2d or still renders of blood effects and warped them on, so my guess is the green grid is purely for the real to showcase how well the 2d warp is tracking.

@beforesmag Fascinating podcast about the vfx in 'Ripley' thank you! Do you know what that green grid is in the 'making of'? It's deformed in some areas but not in others, what's it for? beforesandafters.com/2024/06/14/the…

@scottderrickson And the electric ones are "better" for the environment but shrill as hell

@hanalyst I just privately liked this. 🤫

“Your likes will now be hidden” in an election year can only mean people want to platform terrible ideas without being held accountable, right?

@JesseMiettinen Just a lil one. WOW!!!!

little EEVEE Next test. #b3d #embergen

@JesseMiettinen @ArtOfPilgrim Let's be fair, you mean post 2.8 right?

@ArtOfPilgrim I might be bias after 20 y of blender but I really enjoy the UX of blender UI compared to after effects and davinci resolve e.g. A lot of things are easiely closable/scrollable/isolateable. Simple things like just holding your mouse and dragging through options you want to close.

TIL in Blender, you can use the mouse wheel to cycle through all the tabs in the n-panel 🤯

Something I think about a bit: all those software tools or pieces of code that are lost in time when VFX studios go bust, get bought, or even just make a tool EOL. So many things out there in history...forgotten. We need a VFX software tool repository...

@CDisillusion Wow that hurts my brain. I was just talking to someone about not staring in the greenscreens direction too long lest the world becomes magenta

The perils of using a purple temporary background under your greenscreen shot... PHANTOM GREEN SPILL (even when color is completely removed from the foreground)
