3dartist 69 Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) =Welcome to="St.Petersburg 2017 Edge of Extinction"Hi all,I`m creating this thread to stop spamming my own in Tu-95MS thread with post that`s are not related to.=Intro=The "St.Petersburg 2017 Edge of Extinction" is going to be a short cgi movie, it`s a "Graduation Project" that we are making for "Grafisch lyceum Rotterdam".Benjamin came up with an idea to create a destroyed city that should wake-up your emotion feeling with help of camera movement.After lots of brainstorming i came up with a story and camera shots. After creating concept art i`ve drawed and animated an "Animatic" just to keep sketchy shots in my head.After that we went shooting the footage in the greenscreen with my little sister Lizalot Walrave.Next for me was cutting/choosing the footage shots.Then i`ve created a "3D Previz" where in i`ve setted up the final scale of the city/directed-animated the tank and cameras.The rest of enviroment have to be created.The story won`t be full by not saying that i`m (Oleg Kovalev) working on this short with my friend Benjamin Vlainic.I`ll post more info dependent on time i have.Just view all the links to see ower current state.2D Animatic (Full HD supported)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rNKq-DDxG83D Previz !!!view it with sound!!!

Gedis 0 Posted February 20, 2011 You should make a full lenght CGI movie and show it on cinemas, you would gain a shitload of money. Oh and I forgot to express my self: O.O Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pyronick 21 Posted February 20, 2011 Nicely made! But wasn't Rotterdam easier, as you go to school there? (as do I ;)) Maar, inderdaad een realistisch verwoeste stad! ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paragraphic l 2 Posted February 21, 2011 Wist niet dat we zulk talent hadden op GLR, kom zeker langs tijdens eind expo :) Looks nice, well done on the trailer, I'm really looking forward to see the end results Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggyluv 2136 Posted February 21, 2011 Very much enjoyed that! Music reminds me a little of "In the House in a Heartbeat" from the film 28 Days Later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

3dartist 69 Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) Lol, maybe we should organize an Arma 2 gathering here in NL :) Well soon as i`m done with this project i`ll definetly go with you in Rotterdam somewhere to chillout :) Btw here`s a tunrtable of T-90 (probably the quality we are going for) Edited February 21, 2011 by 3DArtist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kuroyuki 10 Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) aye, you can bet that we'll do anything we can to make something awesome :) Nicely made! But wasn't Rotterdam easier, as you go to school there? (as do I ;)) ofc, rotterdam would be easier but that is no reason to pick a city ; ) We decided to do st. petersburg because it is a beautiful city beaming with culture. if we chose Rotterdam, the video would not achieve the look that we are aiming for. (which class are you in ? we're in D4A ) Wist niet dat we zulk talent hadden op GLR, kom zeker langs tijdens eind expo :) Oud-student ? :) Edited February 23, 2011 by Kuroyuki added a reply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3dartist 69 Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) We are working with Kuroyuki(Benjamin) very hard on vehicles and assets before starting modeling building and building scenes. Here is a render from a scene i use to test my setting and finding new ways to get the better result in quality. Also use this scene to create presets for later.

3dartist 69 Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) Ok folks , Here is the FINAL preview of a quality we`re going for ,to deliver within a movie for our graduation, after final presentation we are planning to recreate most of the content on a higher quality and then take time to make the movie as we whish to have it. =HQ screens=http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/2851/finalpreview.pnghttp://img28.imageshack.us/img28/7716/66103646.png Edited March 6, 2011 by 3DArtist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadow NX 1 Posted March 7, 2011 Looks awesome Oleg but one thing i have to nitpick about... why does the plastic ( Bumpers, Sideskirts, Emblem ) on the Mazda rust? ;) On the other side its most likey just a rust effect layer i assume? Anyway, i forsee great grades with such excellent work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3dartist 69 Posted March 8, 2011 We have no time to paint separated textures for plastic and chrome stuff. See it as Dirt for now.The Black colored would be to much contrast,i tried to make it before i came with such decission.Soon as we have lots of time in our hand to recreate stuff.First thigns we`re going to do is model a better stuff where needed and repaint textures or make som extra new.Like making the current wheels burned out with metal wires coming out of , would be looking more real :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3dartist 69 Posted April 11, 2011 =UPDATE= We have almost reached the deadline,after discussen with our tutors we have come to a conclusion, to shift deadline to 24 april ,under one condition to deliver before 14 april a video with shots that has been finished. Due to the lack of time we just can`t push scene detail density on a level as we thought to make in the begining, we have decided to rebuild the whole movie from scratch after exam ends. Breakdowns: Previz 2(first scene have to be build ,the rest is almost/or done): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bf-PFuoxBAQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
