How about recreating the Flo Mo on the roof scene in the Matrix? I tried tracking the original green screen footage but couldn't get it to work properly. It would be interesting to see what could be done using blender instead of setting up an expensive camera rig like they did originally.

@zofo264 Год назад

I really like this! Things that caught my eye: The lights on the boat look strange, maybe they're just too big or too bright. On the radar, remove the detail in the outline of Godzilla so they can't tell what it is. It's more suspenseful/ominous that way because it was sort of comical to see his little arms show up on the radar. When he steps on the van, some parts should fall off so it doesn't look like a toy. I think you nailed the rest - nice job :)

@fen4ri Год назад

The shot of the spine passing into view in front of the boat is SUPER NICE. The model had me skeptical that it would look good, but it looks much better/cooler/scarier in the dark lighting, with atmosphere. Especially poking out of the water. My favorite scene however, is actually when the monster is standing up out of the ocean. The way he's almost 100% silhouette, contrasting with the sparkles made by the water reflecting light off of him here and there is so epic. It's the sparkles for me, man.

@DECODEDVFX Год назад

Thank you. Cinematography and composition has been a big focus for me over the last year. My general workflow is to build the shot around a single key frame, ignoring the animation entirely at first. So I'll basically design the composition like it's a still render. I try to make the shot as "readable" as possible just from one still image. Once you've got that working, I tend to find it's fairly simple to turn that into an effective animation. In this case, the water and dark sky made it fairly hard to tell what was going on. So I added a ridiculously powerful light just behind where the monster emerges, just to give him a really strong silhouette.

@islandgrovestudios Год назад

Awesome job on this, dude! This is a great Blender breakdown, but I'd just like to call out how great the sound design is on this short. Sound design is the most important aspect when creating a mood for your scene, and you crushed it. Can't wait for the next one! Maybe Back to the Future???

@DECODEDVFX Год назад

Thanks! I normally use a music score for the music but I decided to try something more atmospheric here. The radar ping was supposed to set the tempo of the animation and sorta foreshadow the stomping of his footsteps. Getting good sound clips can be a struggle though.

@KenanProffitt Год назад

@TheEightfoldPath_ Год назад

Been binging these videos now, amazing work. One thing that I'd recommend in the final video tho: Add ambient sounds. Godzilla trampling the city and there are no sirens or car alarms, no traffic, no background hum of a city? It would add so much in between the silence of the main sounds. Both in the apartment and in the street those would really elevate the already stunning renders.

@DECODEDVFX Год назад

Thank you. The sound effects were done in about ten minutes. A lot of them were added as placeholders while I worked. Unfortunately I didn't have much time to improve them. I experimented with adding some dogs barking, car alarms etc. It didn't sound right and I ran out of time to make it work.

@TruthSurge Год назад

Really amazing. Maybe a camera shake and a little bit of ground pound noise. When he steps on that van would've made it more believable in that part. You had the shaking and the ground sound in the previous walking shot. So that would have made that van stamp way more realistic I think. But With the time you spent it turned out pretty amazing.

@starduck2 Год назад

I like this and for the time it took this is a masterpiece! To make it better I would only completely remake the boat interior scene and call the entire thing "quietzilla" because it amused me a lot that he was almost like not trying to wake people up.

@DanielTDesign Год назад

Wow! Awesome work man! 👍👍

@jesusfreak2017 Год назад

Great job overall! While there were many small things that could be improved throughout it, the biggest things that pulled me out of it were the walking scene in the city featuring his feet and the final roar. With the feet, it would have taken a lot longer to make it look right, but shattering the concrete and having it sink in a bit would have gone a long way to helping make his weight believable. For the final roar, it was a little too quick so, again, made him feel smaller, which felt weird with the helicopter which provided scale, but highlighted this issue even more unfortunately. I love that you make these short scenes! I hope to make my own very soon! My hardware isn’t quite as good as yours so I may have to do more work on the compositing end to make it all come together 🙂

@MarcV_IndieGameDev Год назад

Inside the flat shot (which is my fav) if you animated the lamp shade and the 2 framed pictures falling over or showing movement from the stomping, it would of given more life to the scene. All other shots were too dark, i'm guessing the hide as much as possible xD. Great stuff none the less! Keep Cool!

First of all I love your work it is honestly pretty inspiriting to see and looks incredible with all the amount of detail art and animation in only a short period. I would love if you could make an HD Remaster of a cutscene from a game called Hulk Ultimate Destruction, the is between Hulk and Devil Hulk in the mindscape of Bruce Banner; basically the fight between the two and defeat of Devil Hulk at the end where he fades away, I imagine it being around 5 or 6 minutes or so considering the cutscenes are usually 1 or 2 minutes long. Again love your work, keep it up

With more time I would have liked to see zilla come from further out in the bay and splash his way to the docks, making for a more impactful experience of his huge size… also going right to the city in flames after the van crush is a little jarring, but again time constraints etc. … and finally would have loved to see him zap the copter with his breath… should you ever go back to revise this some simple tweaks would really bring it to life. This is a great results for the time you put in great job!

@WoodenTurtle Год назад

Really impressive especially for the deadline! Honestly the only really noticeable thing that could be improved upon is the sound design, usually the last thing on a vfx artists mind but it's pretty much as important as the cgi in building a believable scene. Amazing work though!

@DECODEDVFX Год назад

Yeah, it's not one of my strong points, and unfortunately on a shot like this it has to be left to the last minute. It's also pretty hard to find appropriate sound effects for a lot of stuff online. For example, the sound of people screaming as they run away is actually a recording from a theme park. You make the best of what you've got. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@WoodenTurtle Год назад

@DECODED Totally understandable, it's a totally different artform! Maybe music could help but in the same breath it's probably very hard to find good royalty free music as well

@havocthehobbit Год назад

Great work, fun to folow your workflow. Could have done with a tiny bit of camera shake at strategic times and vibration of the road and light sources to give weight to the monsters steps and affect on city infrastructure. As well as light flicker as he would be affecting electric flow when he goes through a city with power lines and ground based substations . Just my 2 cents of work that doesnt cut back on too much productivity that can be implemented in a few minutes for more realism and sense of immersion. Something that takes a little more time but not necessary to add would be some sparks and flying garbage dabree like magazines and concrete dust .

@DECODEDVFX Год назад

I actually planned to add a bit of camera shake to the van stomp shot in post, and I completely forgot. I also originally planned an entire shot of Godzilla pulling out electric cables and causing loads of havoc, but that shot had to be scrapped because it was another 15 hours of work.
