Star Wars Rise of The Empire Beta

This originally started out for me to learn how to use 3d studio max, but evolved into a small movie. EVERYTHING is CGI including the Darth maul Character. All models used where from scifi3d.net. I used 3d studio max 8 adobe after effects and sony vegas. I am continuing the video, this is just a sho...

RE: FX LAB

I have visionlab, its the ultimate program. I remember when they brought out alamdv2. I thought that was great until i learnt that its too 2d and not good for most things. But they have come a long way since then and its a great alternative to adobe products

take out the explosion noise, cause there is no sound in space silly :) I know, however could you imagine a star w2ars space battle without any sound? Pretty boring. If I do another one I won't bother putting in a moon again, and yes the asteroid did wipe out everything, because it was massive, eve...

Re: RE: snowfall test- does this look like winter?

I'd blur the snow that's close to the camera because a DV camera would never pick up fine drops in front of the camera like that But that would show the inconsistency of using a camera. Its like people who say that the motion blur looks bad in a certain film. In reality, there is no motion blur, if...

star wars x wing animation

this is my very first ever rendered video using bryce 6 to animate an x wing flying passed the camera. Please don't expect it to be great, as i only just learnt how to use the program and how to animate. It took about 6 hours to render this and only 5 minutes to animate it. Since I made this vid, i ...

its the full video for the modball trailer i posted up. The company have one of their mechanics posing as a show car girl, but in order for it to look good they have tied him down while they wax his legs, chest and eyebrows, i think it would be quite suited being played in the background

i would like to add, that if you buy it, be careful because potassium nitrate is on the government watch list for bomb making.

once it starts burning, you will not be able to put it out until it burns itself out (usually 30-60 seconds) I thought that covered the fact it burns. The baked bean can is usually tough enough to use but the cupcake holders are usually for real small smoke effects that burn out in 10 seconds, howe...
