3 - Holaaa at the next model

Posted by Marius Oberholster on Tuesday, September 21, 2021, In : News

Hey all!

What next model? Well, I'd love to tell you, but I just can't. It's too early in the post, hehe.

Okay, you win! lol.

I recently joined CGTrader and started loading models from the short films - and some related new ones! They take some work to convert from Blender Render, but oh my-my-my-my-my are they pretty when they land!!! You can check them out here!

Store Page

Each one links to the model's page on CGTrader, for example.

So, when I post a model, I usually proceed to the next one, but ...

Long time

Hey all!

This week's vlog!

GOD is beyond words!!! Just wow!!

- Re-Rendering a lot...of the same, haha

Like the last time I got to vlog, these weeks contained a lot of re-rendering. With the new 10-layer method, it means that some scenes have too many artifacts... I tried rendering some shots with it to get a much sharper result, but honestly, some shots are only going to be as good as they are with the methods I currently have at my disposal. A lot of re-rendering has occurred these weeks. On...

Week of the ReRender

Posted by Marius Oberholster on Thursday, February 22, 2018, In : WIP

Hey all!

This week's vlog!

GOD is so wonderful!!

- Re-Rendering a lot

Like I mentioned in the video, after seeing the issues with the upscaling (after noise reduction and even doing them together), I re-rendered the shot like GOD wanted in the first place. HE did give me leave to keep it as-is and just noise reduce and later upscale, but you really lose out on quality... It's like the smear between DVD and VHS - it's really obvious - not indetail, but in overall finish.

Which leads me to my...

Last shot remaining for chapter 7

GOD is so awesome!

- Audio Super Resolution
I have been wondering about this for a while and so I really was so driven by curiosity today that I just googled it and I was stunned that it actually existed!! How cool is that!!! I believed it could be done and there it is! Of course, just like SR in video, you also get various means of doing it for audio. The examples in the link below, were done through teaching the computer what the differences are for general spee...

The almost end of a chapter

Hey all!
This week's vlog!

GOD is so great!

- Sound work
Almost no sound work for the week. In fact, so little that I don't recall if I actually did any this week, hahaha.

- Dynamic Plaster
Thankfully, I did get to play with this effect a bit, but did not get far. The problem here is that for hieroglyphics, you want solid colors (no shadows) and that means the effect needs some modification. Of course, you do get exceptions, because someone always wants to be different, but in this case, I...

Hand over

Hey all!
This week's vlog!

GOD is so wonderful!!

- Sound work
Last week I talked about a few issues with the sound. I forgot about these in the vlog, but no matter - it saves drastically on data and honestly, you won't notice much of a difference anyway (a reflection on how small the adjustments are), hahaha.

- Fire sound adjustment
I mentioned last week that the fire sounds were too loud - especially on head phones and so I reduced them this week. I do notice that they don't really have ...

Sound off

Hey all!
This week's vlog!

GOD is so great!

Oh, pardon the scratchy sound. I'm not sure whether the interference is coming from, but will look into it, GOD willing!

- Sound work
Last week I talked about sound work at the end of the post and pretty much not at all in the video, but over the weekend I got to spend a lot of time on not just recording sound, but adding sound to the project. In fact, here is a list:
- Spatter contact (same as next)
- Water hitting pavement (works for concrete too...

3D Switch

Hey all!
This week's vlog!

GOD is so great!

- 3D methods come together
Last week I got to share with you guys how GOD gave me a new 3D method that gives supremely sharp results. Of course, it still has a few catches, but it certainly produces! Anyway, this week I saw for the first time that GOD knew I needed it, before I knew I needed it (nothing new there, hahaha).
The shot where the magicians face the camera needed to be sharp in order to get a sense of space. Yes, they do kinda look li...

New method

Hey all!
This week's vlog!

GOD is so awesome!

- New 3D method
In the spirit of posting a new tutorial two weeks ago, GOD gave me two of the coolest gifts for production:
- A new 3D method
- that's 2 seconds faster and much higher quality (with a catch though)

Over the passed few years, GOD has given me an amazing amazing 3D method that enables me to do 3D renders for just a few seconds more than a 2D one. Ever since the whole process started, it has been a total dream of mine to be able to pr...

3D on YouTube

Hey all!
This week's vlog!

GOD is so cool!!!

- Posting 3D content from Blender on YouTube (Tutorial video)
Last week I mentioned that I would like to do a video on this very tricky and prickly topic and included a lot of technical info on it in the post itself:
http://bibleanimations.yolasite.com/blog/a-single-shot

I recommend that if you are someone interested in uploading Stereoscopic 3D (Side-By-Side), it is certainly worth checking out!

Note: For some reason it does not want to display 3D ...

Defocus on the fringe

Hey all!

Today's vlog!

GOD is so wonderful!

- Question the medium: 3D
Simon from DSLR Guide said something a few weeks ago about the whole VR camera and medium, and it was: "Question the medium". What that means is that the medium has to add something to the story, or it's not useful in the first place.
Before watching that video, I felt that way, but didn't quite know how to define it until watching his video (GOD is so good - always provides the answers!). So my goal was to have 3D actually...

- Dangers and Benefits of 3D
This week I feel like I'm a bit of a "boy who cried wolf" situation. I've done a little digging on the adverse effects of watching 3D and I found some websites swooning over it and they have not cautions, except that the same precautions be taken as with 2D (things like photosensitive epilepsy, not having the screen too bright, etc.). I have been working on this method for years and I have to be honest, I have experienc...

What's that sound

Hey all!

This week's vlog!!!

GOD is so good!

- Voice actors
Yey, today this can be the first topic! :D
Last week, I took the plunge and sent out a few e-mails asking specific friends I felt fit the roles, if they would be willing to record those roles for the video and I have so far only heard back from one - Pharaoh! Who could it possibly be?! Just have to wait to find out! There has to be some mystery to this project! :D
So I am still waiting to hear back from the rest, but I did miss some...

Anime in 3D

Posted by Marius Oberholster on Thursday, May 4, 2017, In : WIP

Hey all!

This week's vlog!!!

GOD is so amazing!!!!

- Anime and 3D
Oh yes, we're kicking off with the main point of this week's video, which ironically only took a bit of the afternoon and a piece of the evening! haha.
Anime and 3D seem to be at odds with one another in various ways, but particularly in frame rate. There are scenes in anime that get the full 24fps treatment and then there are those, where the head is perfectly still for like 2 or three seconds and only the lips and eyes move...
