@@xanzuls it is a group effort!

oh boy this is a question I am not sure how to answer... I haven't opened Maya for 6 years now...

@@أحمدصبحي-ص2د I started from Applied Houdini

这个是怎么实现的，可以给个思路吗

@@Turgineer thank you! Though I do work for the very studio that created this

I didn't techinically animate the boat. that's just sine and cosine waves..

@@THE.MONODON you should start from Houdini 101.. understanding the basics is the first step of getting started at this software

hiplc

@@HangYuriYangFXthank you sir just one thing. If i want to export from houdini to keyshot using .abc file do you think it will work ?

thanks, I already have a nice job :)

unfortunately I have stopped using Maya for a long time.

@@HangYuriYangFX what program are you using now ?

@@Dyako_010 Houdini

it is very similar to the default houdini whitewater rendering method. convert everything to vdb density and vdb analysis a gradient field as normal for specular. I just baked the velocity in as the camera isn't moving too much.

I no longer use Maya anymore

@@HangYuriYangFX use which one now? tnx

@@ACES-BRAZIL sidefx Houdini

ahahaha! I assume shouldn't be too difficult

@@HangYuriYangFXthat would be really fun tbh!!

they are not combined.. it is literally just a sim render on top of the ocean surface render(in 2D).

@@HangYuriYangFX ahh right, I've been wanting to learn the proper way of doing combining flip tank with large ocean. I have done it in comp always so its nice to hear such an expert is doing it in comp too! I've thought the real way is to somehow with the ocean extend workflow etc

@@HangYuriYangFX PS. Do you happen to know anything about something called BEM in flip? I've seen an article some time ago how someone managed to extend the flip sim to the large ocean post-sim to get those insanely large boat wakes

@@ignitoracing Oh, You can totally do that. combine the sim and the ocean isn't too difficult with mantra..just need to flatten the edge and connect with the extended ocean surface. then need a bunch of spectrum masking if needed.. I just find it a bit time consuming on my own shots, so I tend to do it in comp as I can blend them whereever I want to.

@@ignitoracing hmmm interesting..if it is just the boat wake like the kelvin wake.. you can just create the pattern and do a post deformation on the surface.. I will need to look into this BEM thing though. seems like an interesting topic.

Literally just change one point to multiple smaller points haha. Not a sim change. Post sim upres

@@HangYuriYangFX Yeah i understood it was post sim, good ol' point replicate? hahah I've used point replicate aswell to upres but I've always thought if theres some other ways similiar to upressing pyro

my machines is fast.. usually the water sim is like 1 minute per frame something like that.

I just used the internal 1.33x de squeeze😅 wasn't too far off!

@@HangYuriYangFX I see. By the way, do I need to de squeeze the footage again in post production softwares? And which format option do you choose when shoot, 4K? 2.4:1?many thanks^_^

@@HangYuriYangFX I am struggling between BMPCC 4K and PANASONIC G9 Mark II . I want to shoot anamorphic^_^

@@larryzhou you can do the desqueeze quite easily in editing software. If you are using resolve, it should come with a 1.33 setting since that’s in the metadata.. but really just a few clicks to change to 1.5x. I am doing UHD, using the entire sensor is too wide for me. Even this is kind wide. 16:9 is better for 1.33x. If G9 can do open gate, I feel like it could be a better choice for anamorphic lens especially 2.0x. I am just doing this for fun, the power of RAW is way too much!

@@HangYuriYangFX thanks . ^_^

There is no doubt that "AI" can do a lot of things, though you should know that the reason the word is in quotes is that it isn't what the definition of AI in general is. I would say, it can do a lot of things, commercials are already affected quite a bit, I still think it is not going to affect higher end work as much. Nowdays, vfx is more of pixel level work, speed up/down or move here/there or change that shapes or change timeshift things that I am not sure it is a thing yet that's possible for it to understand.

@@HangYuriYangFX thank you so much for your insight. This was very helpful. And will affect one of my biggest decision.

I just kind of doing it by chatting with colleagues and exploring things myself.. trying new ideas

@@HangYuriYangFX that's awesome, your work is amazing

@@FilmFlicks3358 thank you!

Which part are you not understanding?

It’s threadripper 3990x + 128GB of RAM + rtx3080

@@HangYuriYangFX Wow, such a beast Machine. I love your work, it always inspires me 😍. Btw i am still learning Houdini and Nuke😀.

thank you!

Thanks!

Had it downloaded for a year, but only seriously learning for about half of a year. Got lucky, the studio was also doing FX in Maya as well.

Thanks! You can do it as well!

Woohoo!

Yes

Ahhh, thanks!

Yoooo! My boy is here! Thanks man!
