    I’ve seen countless VFX tutorials over the years, but I think this is the first time really seeing what a professional workflow looks like. Thanks so much! And amazing results, of course :)

      Thanks so much, Ronald! I'm glad this helped you understand the workflow.

    Working directly with a big-time animation director? Finding out he also chose blender for this? you providing clear instructions for this great animation?
    That's awesome!

      I agree, it's so cool to see more and more industry professionals like Kyle using and loving Blender! Glad you liked the tutorial!

    Damn, best real Blender production video I've ever seen. In three minutes I can find you 20 videos on how to sculpt a girl with ridiculous proportions, but very few on getting real work done. Great stuff. It's also great to see Blender holding up to real production.

    This is one of those videos that when you find them, you can't help but think "I can't belive I'm watching this video for free". The amount of knowledge I've gotten from just watching your workflow really makes me want to subscribe to your patreon, and I probably will in a couple weeks.

    Thanks for this. Revisiting it it I have a question. You mention during lighting, that you added a 360 photo that is not an HDRi for the reflections. Is this added in as an environment texture still as if it was an HDRi or was a skybox texture created somehow?

    • @InLightVFX
      @InLightVFX  Рік тому +1

      Hello there! Yes, it was added as an environment texture just like a regular HDRi.

    I don't understand how you got a desaturated composit of chuchu as if it was shot on raw format, I mean you did some color adjustment to match it to the graded (view lut) version of the background footage. or is it that ae gives you numbers for the original video when you hover the mouse on a certain color? does it ignore the adjustement layer?

    Why did you use after effects over something like fusion? Was it ease of knowledge and workflow, or was there a technical reason? Thanks!

    • @InLightVFX
      @InLightVFX  3 роки тому +2

      Good question, Abhu! I wanted to go more into the choice but the explanation was too long for the video. But it was mostly my familiarity with After Effects over Fusion. I've also found Fusion to be a bit buggy for me and hard to create a real time preview for my comps. All things that are probably a lack of understanding on my part though. Also, given how straightforward the composits were, I didn't mind sacrificing the benefits of node-based compositing for After Effects' layer-based approach.

    So lots of work with the fake AO-shadows and reflections could have been avoided if Blender had a decent Shadow catcher. I've seen they're working on a really nice one for Cycles X that works with HDRis and reflections.
