I have yet to use a render farm to speed up getting my renders out, although I have seen several advertised. I also watched a video that explained how to build your own. Again I have to give a nod to Transformers and the incredible detail and resources needed to pull of these amazing visuals.

While a lot of amazing work has been showcased in many many films, what would you say is the most detailed piece of VFX you've ever seen. While not my most favorite franchise, I'm a fan of the amazing complexity in the Transformers films. The robots alone are so detailed in the fact that they have t...
Expand postIncredible BTS video, Daniel Husbands! Definitely the VFX in the "Transformers" movies. The VFX is one of the reasons I watch the films.
Star Wars and the Matrix series are pretty awesome in Detail.
All those moving “jets” and sky fighting had a lot of detail. I think I did see some mistakes and the behind the scenes even said / showed...

I haven't watched the show but the VFX work looks very impressive, and the combination of simulations, mocap, match-moving, etc is top notch. What's is a recent show that you thought the VFX were really impressive.

Thanks Maurice Vaughan I was watching this again, and I realized how often then animate the characters as well, along with the live action. Seems like overkill but I'm sure they have their technical r...
Expand commentYou're welcome, Daniel Husbands. I'm not sure if I've recently seen any shows that use VFX. I finished watching "Shōgun" the other day, but I'm not sure if it has VFX.
I just made a tutorial of CapCut - I hope you all enjoy! It has many features that Adobe Premiere does not have...and it's free. I was shocked when I tried it and how different it is from the mobile app. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yZLiT4bjBI&t=7s...

I Love the Ambient sounds from Grain States - the music Library in which I used to made a nice film music sample INow, switching from the 2011 iMac to the 2020 iMac, Grainstate doesn’t work any more. Use to work real good w Native / NI also.
I contacted Kontakt and the GrainStates company and it’s n...
Expand postHey Kerry Kennard unfortunately Kontakt and 3rd party developers have to have very specific versions line up in order to work. I still have VSTs that only work on a specific version of Kontakt and not...
Expand commentThank you Daniel Husbands - appreciate the information. I think I did move the correct version of Kontakt to the 2020 machine and it still did not work. I can look into it later. Thank you for your in...
Expand commentI use Kontakt and unfortunately they made major changes to the library in after 2011. This falls under Grain States responsibility. They need to provide a solution or upgrade path to work with the cur...

I've read and heard about Disney's secret matte screen technique that befuddled and amazed VFX folx for decades as it's vastly superior to green/blue screen, even with today's AI assisted tools. Corridor Crew partnered with a guy who managed to reverse engineer this holy grail technique.

Post Production covers a lot of different things, but one things is clear (especially for beginners) you need a decent computer to pull it off. Now I've post about computer specs before, but this is one of the most comprehensive videos I've come across and I think it will benefit a lot of us. Someti...
Expand postThanks for sharing, Daniel Husbands. "Sometimes "more" isn't necessarily better, and that goes for post-production workstations as well." That's intriguing.
What surprised me the most about this video is that the heaviest tasks, i.e. fusion effects, doesn't benefit the most from a power house GPU. For all the VFX ability built into fusion, I was really sh...
