Ken Liang 3D Generalist Showreel 2023
I've kept my showreel unlisted while I have been looking for the next destination of my career's journey for the past month. Now that I have found it, I've decided to share the showreel publicly, for those of you who are interested. I figured it might be helpful to those of you who are trying to put together a showreel of your own and use mine as a reference. If you are just watching to check out my work, please enjoy!
I want to thank all the organizations and industry professionals who have reviewed my showreel and considered my application. Also not forgetting family and friends who have given me their feedback and support throughout this time, special thanks to you.

    Hi. The Michael Greenwood example you mentioned in your video, does he use the Bevel node exactly this way? Just plug it in & it starts working? Because it did not for me (cycles mode)... What else can be done to achieve such great levels of bevel in 2 joined objects??

  • @사이프러스CyPress
    @사이프러스CyPress Рік тому

    The attraction of the objects to each other creates a concave curve between the noodles and the broth. The curvature is concave, allowing more light to be reflected and making it easier for highlights to appear. It is important not to overlook these details.

    Hey! Great video, loved your approach on splitting the cells. I've tried to recreate the effect, but I'm stuck on dynamic paint part with canvas and brush. When the cells pull apart and the UV Sphere decreases its scale, I get a weird glitch in between the cells for like a frame and also the cells are pulled inwards not outwards like in your example. Any thoughts on how to fix this or what might be the problem? Would appreciate the help! (I can also send the .blend file) Thanks! :)
