Hey Chikan,
I like the busted up tank, but unfortunately it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I want it to have LOTS of broken egdes and I want it really mangled. You know, parts missing or hanging off. You don't have to do that much detail though, because the shot will only be a couple of seconds long. If you could make pieces so I can animate them exploding, that would be great.  Thanks in advance, Chikan!
Chikan Wrote:On a side note, I got bored... I decided to render out my rendition of Andy Probert's original concept drawings for the tank... The body is all his design (or as close as I could get to it based on the drawings) and the turret is a mix of a couple of his different ones, with my own flavor thrown in... LOL
One thing I DID discover, is this new method for doing the glowing edges CAN be refined.. Which means I can go back to Sark's Carrier, and I SHOULD be able to remove the edges that weren't supposed to be there... Make it look just that much cleaner..
But without further ado, what do you guys think?

That's awesome, Chikan!  I like the emblem on the back of the tank.
EDIT:
Hey Chikan, I was wondering if I can use that "Andy Probert" tank for one shot in the movie? I'm want to stick it in the background in one of the shots (like an easter egg).  where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Here's some the early concept art for the tank:

My hard disk is doing fine - just 2.6GB for the TronOS folder. 01_02 and 01_03 are both great shots - I've been doing some cutting and transitioning and fiddling with audio levels on the project and it's really starting to come together on my end. It's looking really good! |
Well, that's good. I was worried that you weren't going to have enough room when we finished the movie, so that's a load off my mind. BTW, thanks for fixing the audio; I noticed that most of the audio that I made wasn't normalized properly so I'm glad you fixed that.  I'm also glad you like what we got so far. Man, I can't wait till we get the movie gets finished!
NoExcuses Wrote:And don't worry - I'm not going to go George Lucas on you and fit in as many cheesy transitions as possible.
I never got that PM you sent me - what was in it? |
 LOL I'm glad, 'cause I hate those cheesy transitions in Star Wars!
Oh, sorry about the PM. Anyway, what I wrote went something like this:
I had an idea about mulitple camera angles for one of the shots (shot 03_00 to be exact), and when I upload this shot there are going to be three dupilcates. Not really dupilcates, but, it's the same shots except three different camera angles. The shots will be called 03_00a, b, c, etc. and you can get to choose which one you want to put in the movie because I don't know which camera angle that I like the most.
I felt a little bit gulity that you were not doing enough work and I wanted to apolgize, so that's why I sent the message as a PM instead of a post.
Anyway, I finished and uploaded some storyboards for you guys! Here they are:
Storyboard #1Storyboard #2Storyboard #3
I'll see if I can work on some shots today.

Thanks! I'll try that out! Although on closer inspection, I can no longer find my recognizer model. Ah well - gives me an excuse to get used to Blender again.

No problem man! For the sake of making it easier on you when it's finished, I'll join the glows to the 'body' objects, just so you have less to worry about... So before I do it, what colors did you need the tank? Just the standard red glow with orange treads? Or did you need a different color for this scene?
Oh and I'll include the new tank when I re-send the busted one.

Hey Chikan,
I got the tanks and they're both great!  Sorry I didn't tell you what the colors were... I can do them myself.

Okay, guys.
Here's the awesome tank destruction shot that I promised!
Download shot 04_06.zip
Despite the fact that the shot is less than a second, I think it came out really well.
To the other people who can't view the uncompressed clips on their computer, don't worry; I'll make another compressed clip with the new shots that we've done.
Talk to you later!

Well, I've STARTED on my BTS clips... (Got the 2nd one done out of the 3 shorts.. lol) But I'm having a hard time finding quiet alone time to film, with the kids here & everything.  Hopefully I'll have them done soon. I think I even figured out a good easter egg to throw in... Should get some laughs.
On a side note:
NoExcuses: Since you're handling the DVD setup, I'll ask you this question: Can the software that you're using do those short animations when you select a certain button? Like say for example, you choose to switch to the BTS menu rather than just playing the movie, can you put in a short little animation to swap it to the other menu? I was thinkin about that today, and if it can I can come up with some cool little 3d transitions to put in there.

Unfortunately, no. I've looked before on different Adobe Premiere forums where people have asked the same question, but apparently you can't (at least, not until someone makes a plug-in for that).

Hmm... Okay then... Do you think it would work if I just created a couple little like 1-2 second clips, and you just put those in at the beginning of each video? Like, have a lightcycle coming straight at the screen or something, and have it play that at the beginning of each BTS clip? There would be a load-delay of course, but it would give a similar look.

I was considering something along those lines. Sure, go for it! Also, I was wondering if one of you guys would mind rendering a new background for the Commentary menu - currently it's just an image I had on my hard drive with a couple of my models in, which could do with replacing. ( Reminder)
