Amazing seeing @Halo move to @UnrealEngine Here's a sneak peek at a Halo-themed Unreal demo (rendered in 12K IMAX) I've been working on to showcase my cinematic workflow, powered by @Vicon mocap and my modifications to Unreal for cinematics. Much more to share soon!

@SCHIZO_FREQ yep

As a kid, I had a youtube channel where I made a bunch of explosives and put them in stuff like tree stumps, icy lakes etc to blow them up on camera (This is how we had fun in America before libtards labeled it "domestic terrorism" and cut our balls off) "How'd you learn to make explosives as a middle schooler?" Furries. I met a bunch of furries on a manufacturing forum What's a furry? I still have no idea, really. Just people who like dressing up as animals, probably. I'm sure there's nothing else weird going on As a kid my understanding of the situation was "They're like goths but instead of black they wear animals" Later I got into 3D printing, and a lot of the 3D printed gun guys had cartoon animal avatars. "Hmmm... reminds me of those bomb guys" Talk to a few and sure enough, they're furries too Then I come on X and start noticing the same type of profile pictures. Every time I click it's a a furry, and their bio is always one of two things: "He/they polyamorous neo-trans Marxo-capitalist. Friend to all. Homeless." or "Director of Engineering at Google Cloud Services" So this group of people who dresses up like animals and develops homemade firearms also runs every major tech company in the country And we still for some reason have people on here writing articles about how YOURE DOOMED TO THE PERMANENT UNDERCLASS UNLESS YOU START AN AI GRIFT IN THE NEXT SEVEN HOURS Is everyone retarded?? Just dress up like an animal and make friends with the furries. They are prepared for everything and they clearly know a lot more about the world than the articlebros I'm gonna be a cat

@Halo_VFX @JangaFX sounds like i should just bite the bullet and get nuke into my pipeline haha

@xenrax @JangaFX nope i'd do muzzle flashes etc in nuke :) Faster and easier imo - hoping to just find some footage of muzzle flashes to use - or i might create some in embergen as cards i could use :)

wip no fx work yet.... i just want to be finished.... 47 shots left to go in the fight sequence

@Halo_VFX @JangaFX embergen rocks, I use the same workflow for vdbs into UE but it has drawbacks. been debating throwing nuke into the mix but trying to avoid compositing. for a shot like the one in your post, would you do muzzle flashes as VDBs or handle in nuke?

@xenrax Use @JangaFX embergen where i can for any smoke sims, and decide if / when to render them as vdbs or use them straight out of embergen as cards in nuke for speed. Any more complicated setups that need things like vellum are all houdini (then most likely put back through embergen)

@jacks_works we put so much effort into details that are lost to compression / scale haha you can get a sense of your audience's device breakout by % here: x.com/i/account_anal… for what its worth, 72% of my audience is on phones

@xenrax I actually forget that people use twitter on phone. I never did so - always on my computer

@rockin_candies your work is fantastic please charge at least 3x this

i'll make a more official post tomorrow, but as a head's up i'll be offering these as commissions for $20

@sni_purr con quality = number of new inside jokes

what they don’t tell you is that sitting in a room with ~6 friends and getting drunk is way, way better than a packed room party

@fiacollie you cooked

as a furry in silicon valley i did NOT expect a tech company to pay me bank to make them a fursuit
