Ganthofer Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I like the lazer etching effect and the trailing glow (not the right word I think) on the Logo. The lense flare and the particles drifting off are a nice touch. Being a CG hobbiest and a newbie to A:M, I curious how much of the finished visuals were done in A:M as a complete render and how much was done by compositing, post processing (photoshop....) and such. Sometime I beat my CG head against a not so CG wall trying to do things, not knowing some of the alternatives that are available. Very Nice (and the test clip too!)

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted February 23, 2004 Hash Fellow Share Posted February 23, 2004 Interesting logo treatment. How about if the laser beam were brighter? It does have a glow to it but the core seems too dark for something that hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Rodney Posted February 23, 2004 Admin Share Posted February 23, 2004 I like. Well Done. Care to share any secrets on how you put it together? How you matched the sound with the movement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtaz Posted February 23, 2004 Author Share Posted February 23, 2004 Hi... Ganthofer : I didn't use composition program, all of the effects were made directly in A:M. I will summarize some of the steps that I proceeded to do the X 1 - I created a patch so that the laser proceeded 2 - I created a small sphere and I applied a white streak with initial speed 0, gravity 0 3 - I created a new CHO, then I put the camera 90 degrees with the "ground", setting the background for black 4 - I imported patch inside of CHO and I showed that patch for the sphere, saying so that she made it in 60 frames 5 - of this it sorts things out I created a sequence of TGA for the bump map 6 - I created a long and fine cylinder and I put a strong glow in it (laser) I also created a bone for control it 7 - I created a cube and I applied the sequence of TGA Now the part of the composition 8 - in CHO I aligned the cube with the patch, and I asked that the cylinder (laser) it made the road of the patch in 60 frames, as well as a light with lens flare ON READY.. only that Robcat : In VSP animation i used sprites to create a red hot way .. this should be longer <_> Bakerrod : The sound was imported inside A:M , sound #1 = 3x bzzzbzbbzbbbzbzbzb sound #2 = 1x KLAM i just aligned the sound whit the moviment , 60 frames whith sound #1 then in frame 62 comes sound #2 Thx for your comments ... If you want I write a more detailed tutorial with some images Excuse me for the language mistakes my language is 3D cheers Xtaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaryin Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Nice work. I also think the laser could be a little brighter looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganthofer Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 Xtaz, The summary was great. Now I have to try and see what I can create with it. Tutorials (especially with pictures ) of anything are always great. So if you feel inclined to, please do. Thanx Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
