Hey I just got a couple of good ideas for this. U could make a lot of those canopy tents that u see in all the terrorist camps. They are just poles with alot of that mesh camoflauge on top. Under them u could have tables and chairs with junk all over them. Park one or two jeeps out in front. Take so...

This one looks good

I would get six fairly large square boxes (2-3 ft sq) and stack them in a six pack arangement. Then, put a matress on top of them. I would also get like three pilloes on top of the matress just to limit the impact on the neck and stuff. Do it in two cuts. Make a low camera angle of the fall where u ...

While you were on the subject of making it realistic, i was wondering. If you shot a bullet in slow motion, it would hit the target before any movement of the hand is realy noticable. The slide would probably not be all the way back because it does not have the same force of the bullet. In the matri...

If you are soopa nice, could you possibly post it up for download for those who don't have much access to firecrackers. Just a thought...

You dont need a high def camera to play in a theatre. Unless i'm mistaken.

Thanks, but what is the vertigo effect?

Hi. I'm doing a short video for school on the catcher in the rye. There is one part where he is in a feild of grass. There are kids playing and there is a cliff on one side. Whenever a kid runs to fall over the cliff, Holden is there to save them. Can any of you think how I can make a cliff appear i...

Thanks, I have done a few animating tutorials and i don't think that will be a problem. But I know I must be doing something obviosly wrong and am spending all this time trying to figure out what it is. In order to animate it I have to attach everything together to one mesh. Every time i try to atta...

Hi. I am brand new to 3d work and 3ds max and pretty much this site. Here is my first model, and i think its sort of good except for a few minor problems. I am going to be making a short half life movie soon and i thought it would be cool to have a battle versus a strider in it. Most people say how ...

Hi, how do you get models from games like half life 2 and halo into 3ds max? Everybody says you can do it but i have no clue. Is there also a way to get the same textures? Sorry if I don't respond right away. I will be in Utah for 2-3 days. Thanks.

Hi. I have a short movie i made and i want to put it online for everyone to view. Since this is my first time at putting a movie on the internet, I need to know how I can compress it without losing alot (the more the better) of the picture quality. The audio has to stay the same though (because the ...

Hi guys. I am new to the forum, but I have been reading what you have been writing for a while. I got into this stuff for the special effects, but only recently started to make films. I've made 3 short school films and 1 test film full of effects. I use Adobe After Effects and a Ulead linear video e...
