Here's a test render of all three G-men getting their bites. It appears all three boolean cutters are leaving artifacts. I may just deal with that in post if they're still visible. In the final animation they'll only be on screen for an instant.
I noticed in an earlier test that having hooks in the boolean objects caused artifacts like these, only worse. So I'm making progress.
nice fx hope you clean up those artifacts
they seem to pop back in when the crumbs appear
maybe a quick way around this is to make a crumb layer, just a thought don't know how it's rigged

ok did another one
got a feeling it's like bidding on ebay at the last min someone is going to blast that thing
good luck

I'm wondering about the idea of the sign over their heads. Wouldn't an icon on their face or chest do better?
You bring up a good point Robert. Part of the reason I chose the icon above their heads, was to give me a device to demonstrate Dynamic constraints. Basically I wanted to get additional high quality free animation.You can see from my earlier tests it came out well. I was debating if I should have the icon on their face and a department name above their head. For example "web design" or "Editor".
I am pretty much settled on this design but I have additional skills and tallents I have to illustrate. For example I am an HD Tape operator so I wanted to illustrate that in a similar fashion but not sure just how yet. I am a professional camera op and Steadicam op, I have shot for shows such as Numbers, Bridezillas, Big Brother exc. So do I have the camera floating above his head like the others or more realistic over the shoulder in hand? Do I have the Panasonic D% Tape over the head? The Hole Tape Machine? Just a Phrase like Tape Op?
The script is
Starts off with
The FCP guy editing my actual demo he turns his head to see other similar guys with different icons walking by the door. FCP guy gets up to peek his head outside the door. The camera fallows different departments FX, Production, Web, IO, Blu-ray authoring and so on All gathering at a location like an auditorium.
The Narrator
" Wouldn't it be nice if you could get all this skill and experience in just one hire?"
At this point I am foggy as to what to do.
I am open to suggestions.
I am thinking of a reveal of some sort to Me in some form or another, whether it be my name , another cg character with my name, a live action me comped in. Or I was thinking that all the characters get sucked together as one and that becomes me. or my name or both.
I also wanted to show my cloth skils so Maybe curtens or a cloth draped over me or my name?
Let me know what you all think?
i think those icons are cool, and lend themselves to some motion tracking, and projection

Thought I would have a go at this thingy as a change ,if anyone can help I would gladly upload the prj,could be a nice little thingy I have an image somewhere .The eyes are tricky for me

you don't have to rebuild your models
what you can do is build the whole house
then make duplicates of the model renaming them and subtracting what you don't need from that model
and shoot what you need think hollywood false fronts, backs, no roof, roof ect ect
you can also set up a choreography for your shot and make copies of that and swap your other models
a real time saver for doing multiple shots

thats coming along real nice

excellent work !

Brilliant !! thank you

ok i'm hooked when the book coming out ?

I think Robs right recheck what you are constrain g to it should work fine

Here's the rough, unvarnished storyboard and a character sketch. A little girl falls asleep in front of the TV waiting for Santa to arrive. We think it needs a better payoff, and my boss wanted to know if I could do this in time for Christmas as we're getting busy again. Of course I said yes!
love the look
just a thought
why not have santa come out of the tv Butt first
the kids in shock
santa take the cookies leaves a gift ( kids still in shock )
santa pops back into tv waves with logo

your welcome

The way things like that usually work is...you put it up- if they don't like it, they ask you to take it down. You take it down.
I'd put it up there!
You should really consider putting it up on YouTube.thanks Gerry
i'd like that but i'll have to change the beer label and ending tag before i do
or get permission
i guess it is something to consider
thanks for the push
