This is probably the kind of pan you should avoid. It doesn't achieve anything and is distracting because it pushes the building out of our view. If the action is about to change from the establishing shot of the building to the inside of the building, then you should either have no camera movement, or a slight zoom in. The way you currently have it is just bizarre.

Although I have to say, the building looks much better than the last time you attempted that style of building.

Ha-hey thanks!

Yeah, maybe I should do a clean pan into the office.

Just finished S2 of The Mandalorian, this felt necessary!

Shirus · 12-23-2020, 09:50 PM

wtf kane your pushing 3dmm to its limits
(like 10-34)

Kane · 12-23-2020, 10:00 PM

That was actually the plan with the Arena model! I wanted to see how large a model could be before it crashed 3dmm on start up or during animation/rotation.

Plopilpy · 12-25-2020, 08:11 PM

After my current film, I'm gonna pull a Kane/Dustin and make a film which SHOVES v3dmm to its very limits. Vanilla 3dmm was fun, but it got old. FAST.

Nixon · 12-26-2020, 06:55 AM

sounds like an issue with ur approach to creativity brotha

Dustin Guest · 12-26-2020, 03:01 PM

That's a super ambitious goal. Be prepared to devote a LOT of time to it. Look forward to seeing what you come up with.

That’s a pretty big statement but best of luck to you

Plopilpy · 12-27-2020, 01:35 AM

Dustin's props and stuff are VERY helpful when it comes to this movie. Absolute lifesavers.

Kane · 12-28-2020, 01:40 AM

Quick anim tests

Plopilpy · 12-28-2020, 01:42 AM

haha very nice!!

Plopilpy · 12-29-2020, 03:41 AM

took me a little bit to make this

Dave Miles · 12-29-2020, 04:36 AM

Nice dude. Looks great

Plopilpy · 12-29-2020, 04:36 AM

Thanks!

Plopilpy · 01-06-2021, 02:12 AM

I'm working on a texture to simulate the glass.

I’ll say that’s an ambitious attempt but doesn’t really come across convincingly. The arm movement looks detached from his body. Also looks strange with his left hand on his right arm. If it was me I’d make the hand/arm slowly wipe the mirror instead of a quick jerky motion, and sometimes it helps to move the head/body ever so slightly to show his whole body in motion while lifting his arm

Rain scene is pretty cool though

Plopilpy · 01-08-2021, 01:24 PM

Good point! Thanks.

Kane · 01-08-2021, 02:03 PM

Liking that rain scene! The lamp post reflection is a nice touch too.

Plopilpy · 01-08-2021, 02:09 PM

Thanks!

Testing some FPS changers and custom palettes.

Kablammo!

Plopilpy · 01-16-2021, 11:34 PM

bump.

(this is slightly higher than 3DMM's FPS because Spider was being wonky)
