Thanks everyone for watching. Check out the competition winner's entry here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ApFkkTHIdWg.html Congratulations, @orencloud - a stunning piece of art, and very well deserved!
The shot at 4:32 is really unique. I don't know why but it caught my attention. Of course there's a lot of good stuff throughout but that really made me stop and think.
Final scene where everything starts floating do to the gravitational pull of the other planet/moon makes me curious. Without a net upward force of those object being applied they would never just float away from the other moon. They would experience a reduced gravitational force by the body they are already on. But they wouldn’t float away would they? Anyone have the math on that one. And I mean heuristics, don’t need the universal gravitational constant BS.
What a great question. What I was thinking about was scenarios like where a black hole 'eats' a star, or, where one star eats another. The moon may be smaller than the planet, but my thinking was that if it was more massive, what would happen if it was suddenly moved close (as in, within the atmosphere) next to the planet? Could its gravitational force overcome the local force? In my mind, it seemed plausible. What do you think? As an aside, I wish I'd had a lot more time to work on those scenes because I didn't feel like there was enough done to make it seem more 'natural' or believable. 😅
I.....don't.....get it. What happened? What is the story? Is there a story? Or is it just to show different types of effects and animations in Unreal Engine?
No dialogue. No plot. Decent CGI and sound effects. The whispers and too-close moon were just confusing. There’s no story here. Why spend so much time and effort (and skill) and fail to communicate?
Hey mate, I'm currently working on a 'making of' video. Hopefully this will answer your questions! 🙏 Thanks very much for watching and also the feedback; most appreciated.
