Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

thats awesome man. makes me look stupid with my frames..... mini/sad

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

It does look like CGI (but very real). Amazing frame, not much going on but from what I see it's great.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

I really love the detail here, Sean, the colours on the wall and the trim particularly.  I like how you've used an upside-down tile on the frame for the elevator.  The lighting is also pretty cool.

I'm guessing that this is from the film you were updating a bunch on twitter yesterday, and that decoration is the one with the real leaves.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

Correct. And thanks!

Wow, everything looks so clean and polished. That's a really great frame.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

@Sean Wow, looks really good! Like Jstudios, I love the polished look it gives. The real plant is also something original you don't see everyday. My attention especially goes to the lighting, which really is superb. Maybe designing a lift button and adding it on to the smooth 2x1 would look nice. How did you manage the upside down tile by the way? Sticky tack? Can't wait to see the film!

Finally here's one of my frames. What do you think (Colors are still WIP)?

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

Hm. What's the setting for the frame? I dig the pattern in the background, but it feels a bit plain. Perhaps playing with the lighting would help some.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

The settings is on top of a mildly high pyramid. I'll bump up the contrast a tiny bit more, and then the pattern on the back'll be way more visible (it's actually quite detailed), although it doesn't matter too too much seeing as this is only a 2.5 second shot.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

In that case, the sparseness makes perfect sense. No visible sky?

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

Lord no, it's inside (very roomy mansiony type area). Fun fact, for a scene using this set the camera rotates around it, whilst he's walking up the pyramid which was the hardest scene I've ever had to animate (2 hours for 4 seconds).

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

DId you like print out a wallpaper?
Also I know this is a bit impossible but for shots where the dude is inside it might look better with floor tiles... Walk cycles would be impossible but if he's just standing there it might look nice.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

If it's inside I think some more interesting lighting would be nice. But still, I'll reserve judgement 'till I see it in action!

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

Thanks for all the feedback, the tiled floor is a great idea! Shame the figure really is animated in the movie (he almost never stands still). As for lighting, I've been experimenting with it more and more lately. Do you have any tips?

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

even something as simple as cutting some holes in a piece of card and putting it between the light and the set can produce interesting results.
