Cool frame Antonio. Though it's a tad grainy/blurry and out of focus. I like your angle and I don't think the walls will distract much. Where'd you get the pistol?

Looks alright
I agree with 1011Ev it's a bit grainy, maybe it might need some colour correction:D

I did some more color correction. Does it look right yet?

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

It looks like a graphic that was overlayed on the original frame. You should play around with the lighting on the set and get it to blend nicely.

You know I am not sure where the gun came from?
Just happened to be in my container where all my Lego guns are.
Thanks for the reply.

Agree, my first impression was that it was snowing. Also, you should add depth to it, maybe hide half planet or even entirely behind the heads of the characters.

That's what I was thinking. I also think the are that it's projecting from is to bright, it's hard to see the actual planets themselves.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

@ LegoCloniac - Looks ok, but I can't tell much from it. The lighting is nice though.

@ Antonio - Like was already said, looks a bit grainy, and it might be able to use some color correction. Also, the change from dark and light grey, to black and white, on the walls looks odd to me. mini/confused

@ Zach - Looks decent. I also thought it was snowing, due to the planets looking too blurry (I think). It also looks too 2D, and is too bright (especially at the center). I think it would look better if it was a bit smaller (even if it is supposed to be really large, like in Ep.2.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

I think it looks a lot better now. You will not think it's snow once you see it animated. mini/smile

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

@ZachFB it looks... delicious mini/smile not that I wanna eat it but I wanna put that frame in my pocket and take a peak once in a while.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

Much better. I like how the planets get more spaced further from the center. It gives it the 3D effect. Also, the light being dimmed down looks nicer. Can't wait for the full video. mini/smile

EDIT: I see you got rid of the holoscreen in front of Mace. Any reason?

That was one of the most creepiest sentences I've ever read... mini/what lol jk Great job ZachFB!

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

I dunno Zach. I think there are two main problems.

1. There isn't enough depth.
The celestial bodies look like they are all on the same plane which is then overlayed on top of the frame. What would help sell this effect is creating several layers and rotoscoping some of them behind the characters. Also, add some blur as it gets farther back. Everything is pretty clear at this point, which clashes with the depth of field in the actual shot.

2. There is a great big light in the middle, but the characters seem to be lit normally.
It looks like you've added a bright solid in the middle to brighten up that area and fake it, but it looks fake. I'd experiment with some practical effects and illuminate the characters from the center.

Keep working on it, it's got potential.

Re: Frame from Your Upcoming Film

Yeah, I was going to add some environmental lighting to it. Just like what I do with gunshots.
