Watch & learn : Postprod work from A to Z

Hi all !

Here is a complete post work form me at 8x speed. This is not a real tutorial as nothing is really explained. Anyway, it shows a full process of 3d architectural integration, with different basic techniques and processes.

This job was made for Asymetrie, the project is from one of our customers.

For those interested, notice that I offer my postwork services, if you or your studio love 3d and want to get a nice postwork job, do not hesitate to contact me @ mike_barrin-at-hotmail.com.












Feel free to give your opinion, critics, advises, or even bank card details ;)

Session #2 Basic shadow casting in Photoshop

Here is the 2nd tip and tricks. This one shows a way to simulate shadow casting of a cutout tree. What you should keep in mind is that this is only one method among many others, which is not supposed to be physically accurate.
I must first show some basic tricks... We'll really get into it later ;).

Display by frame

Little C.O.F.F.E.E script that allow to change objects every frame.

It's quite simple :
It compares the name of the group with the number of the frame and if it matches, the group is displayed.

Simply create a C.O.F.F.E.E tag with the following code on Nulls (groups) witch name are corresponding to the frame during witch they'll be activated (!?!)

****************************************

main(doc,op)
{
var dirframe = op->GetName();               //gets group name
var test = int(evaluate(dirframe));            //converts group name to int
var t = doc->GetTime();                           //get current frame
var frame = t->GetFrame(doc->GetFps()); //get current frame

if(test==frame){   //if group's name = frame number ---> group is active
        op#ID_BASEOBJECT_VISIBILITY_EDITOR=2;
        op#ID_BASEOBJECT_VISIBILITY_RENDER=2;
        }
else{                   //else group is disabled
        op#ID_BASEOBJECT_VISIBILITY_EDITOR=1;
        op#ID_BASEOBJECT_VISIBILITY_RENDER=1;
        }
}
