  • Experience how Wētā FX artists created the explosions and fire simulations during Thanos' missile strike on the Avengers compound, how they built custom geometry masks to guide the damage of Iron Man's (Robert Downey Jr.) suit while snapping his fingers to use the Infinity Gauntlet, and how they used color coded masks and custom air fields to erase Thanos from existence in the climatic conclusion of Avengers: Endgame.

      @@johnodunayo6728 Yeah that's why I said they make it "look" easy. But the amount of work that goes into it is nothing but. But naw, try doing these effects without the tricks they're using and you'll end up with 3D that looks like PS1

    Masters of your craft. I can't fathom the scale of computation being done (cause I heard 6b voxels, a number so huge I couldn't imagine what it looks like since I deal with ~500k voxels/particles/polygons) so my question is, how does the team manage this volume of data, is there a department for data optimizations/compression (😅clearly out of my depth). I can imagine a water scene frame from Avatar would be a couple hundred gigs because of everything being rendered (and I'm assuming baked) within one pass.

    • @weta-fx

      Hi Wycliffe - the team uses a combination of local and cloud services to handle our computational needs. There are much cleverer people here who manage all that. :-)

      Autodesk Maya for rigging/animation, SideFX Houdini for simulation, Foundry Nuke for compositing, etc. Those are some of the software big VFX studios use nowadays.
