This aged well. RIP Clarisse.

[@timvfxx]

I can't believe the Clarisse developers have stopped developing this app. I put a lot of effort into learning this program and had high hopes for my career after studying it. It would be great if a volunteer team could take their work further and continue developing it.

[@xpez9694]

@@misanthrope_01 extreme polygon counts wasnt enough. Unreal and other apps caught up. and they had extra 3d production tools and the GPU rendering solved. The Angie never became a production reality. They probably saw that they could keep dropping millions on the development and what would they have? A great GPU renderer.. and what else? game engine? A real time render engine? To stay competitive it was going to be endless money sink.. They had a good run..but saw they were going to go broke trying to keep up with EPIC GAMES..they left while they still had money in the bank.

[@MrKlayVFX]

I would totally love more content on Clarisse. Looks really promising.

[@michaelhere985]

Yes Andrey I'd love to see tutorials with clarisse!. I'm so excited for the new videos!

[@architecture8770]

Do u have any link or course to learn clarisse

[@maiamaya6083]

I want to learn it so bad

[@nickseils8193]

You are one of my favorites channels! As a Motion Designer just getting into the next stage of my career, these videos help me stay up to date with the industry. Thanks so much Andrey! Can't wait for the next video, and I'm defiantly down for Clarisse videos

[@VFXCentral]

SO STOKED you joined team clarisse! your work already is blowing my mind! everyone check out clarisse! you wont regret it!

[@AndreyLebrov]

Cheers Aaron. Your work is crazy inspiring mate, looking forward to see more from you too

[@benvonzastrow5403]

Clarisse user here since version 2 was in beta. It truly is an amazing tool. I went back to one of my old shots (done in v2) and realized that I had been working on a scene with over 955 Billion primitives. And that was on a mid-range workstation (far from the cream of the crop even back then). I recommend this tool to anyone who is doing any sort of VFX work. Especially environment work.

[@RedDaveMotion]

I went down a KZbin rabbit hole about Clarisse last year. Currently learning it and figuring out a workflow. It's a very powerful tool. Was great surprise to see posts by you in the discord when I was searching for stuff. The community is really nice. Really looking forward to learning more of your workflow with it 👍

[@HumanoidKoala]

Checking Clarisse out. More confident about it because of your comment :)

[@rennightmare]

hello, im wondering is there anything houdini can't do what clarisse could when using same machine for both programms? everything shown in a video is kinda similar to how i work in houdini except for this thing about thousands of subdivisions which are possible in clarrisse; doesnt sound like a true thing actualy.

[@RedDaveMotion]

@@rennightmare it's true about handling millions of subdivisions. I'm not sure of the technicalities of it but think it worked as a kind of reference object. So it wouldn't load the objects but stream them. The software's discontinued now and no longer for sale.

[@AndreyLebrov]

Closest replacement to Clarisse would be katana, but since release of Houdini 20, there’s nothing Solaris can’t handle. It’s katana on steroids with a wonderful benefit of Karma working seamlessly with all internal Houdini ops, I’m enjoying it a lot. Yes, it would not handle TRILLION of polygons in the viewport like Clarisse can, but you will quickly find that renders can be built in mindblowingly clever ways and potentially surpass the performance of Clarisse if done correctly )

[@rennightmare]

​@@AndreyLebrov thank you for answering, i almost got sad since Clarisse isnt availible anymore. Hope one day you will tell us something about your Solaris workflows!

[@MandeepSingh-xk2wy]

This gave me a gist of the software. The use cases are pretty good. Would love to try it out on the weekends to create something cool. Thanks Andrey for the information. 👊

[@deataification]

Was a bit skeptical when you mentioned Clarisse but damn, after this presentation I'm 100% trying how it fits into my workflow. Mainly use C4d but its a pain in the ass to use when you are dealing with tens of millions of polygons. Big thanks for the tip!

[@revocolor]

This is one of the best videos explaining Clarisse very clearly. Thank u 👌

[@raw_pc]

I'm excited for the tutorials. I'm pretty sure this software will blow our minds. Anyone who was trying to assemble complex animation scene in 3dsmax will understand why this is a game changer :D

[@DaveysRoom]

I haven't heard of Clarisse before. Thanks for the info Andrey!

[@Soluchi-InfiniteCoCreatorGod]

Very Informative video. Thank you. 👍

[@housseinkheireddine6434]

Great! Yesss Waiting for Clarisse tutorials!!

[@bestplanetever6048]

Wow I just watched all 6 beginner videos, after C4D for 20 years my brain broke seeing Clarisse's workflow and thinking. It makes seeing Avengers epic enviro shots more manageable.

[@KaoukabiJaouad]

the best introduction to clarisse, i found so far on the internet, i was watching tutorials, i was like yeah all this exist in houdini this is so boring .. in fact, you showed why clarisse is so good, good job on that, and with the angie renderer coming in the future, it's one of the rare 3d software's that made a breakthrough to the top, in the 3d industry in just few years(substance also and 3D coat)

[@mridulsarmah5974]

Clarisse even works with a mid range PC. Really love this software!

[@MrVishaleee]

This is what iam searching for, thanks for such clear explanation ❤️

[@hisroyalillness]

Lets go with this Clarisse tutorials Andrey. You totally sold it to me. Thx man!

[@quistsamuel1465]

You dont know know how happy to hear this info from you..thank you

[@vladislav_mindel]

Ой, как-то за два года канал вырос :) Смотрю тебя с 10к. Hello, так сказать.)

[@cirocardoso3v]

Been playing with Clarisse for the last 1 year and is amazing the amount of geo that you can work with.

[@TreasonsBeta]

Huh? I was staring at the plasmid light/firefly jar sitting on the table and was wondering where I could get it. Then I realized it was a continuous shot and wasn't always cutting with your videos cuts 😭😭Curse you and your good compositing.

[@thestellarelite]

Would be very interested in a Clarisse tutorial/walkthrough/whatever you have planned! Also pleasantly surprised by your 6 wheel rover rig. I am modelling one of those right now for a project and this will come in very handy!

[@aharonluccier1570]

Great that you mentioned clarisse, maybe this great software gets more attention outside studios. I first heard of it on reddit and could not really understand what exactly clarisse does. They have a nice learning edition to try things out, so i tried and i like it very much. You can really throw everything into clarisse, even scatter things on scatered things hahaha, the performance is great no matter how much polys you have in scene. Best instancing mechanism i saw so far. Looking forward to see some nice tutorials with clarisse from you :-)

[@no_damage]

It's crazy that you even brought all this up. I was up the other night just checking stuff out and I came across Clarisse and it blew my mind to pieces. I am definitely interested in learning this program but I will be waiting till it's gpu accelerated for sure.

[@adnanerochdi6982]

yeah, with rtx support

[@hyperm3540]

absolutely interested in more content like this

[@manoharanethirajan7569]

Very use full information especially about material lighting for a complex projects with tons of polygons for a night shot.

[@sadness212]

I'm looking forward for clarisse tutorials ♥️👍

[@OfficiallyOToole]

Yes, please give us Clarisse tuts! I Don't know how to use it but as soon as you said it could handle trillions of polygons, I was hooked.

[@alejmc]

Several years ago one of our co-workers was the odd man rendering his stuff on Clarisse while everyone else was swearing by whatever render of choice on Maya or 3dsmax at the time… even several years ago his outcome was (and still is) above and beyond the usual. The sad part is, for some reason, it isn’t as widely adopted as it could be… at that time there were over 200 employees that got a taste of it and only this guy and his manager were the only ones to embrace it (myself included also didn’t follow it). Thanks for bringing this back.

[@FaddyVFX]

Looks amazing, alot to learn in this software, i think your video is a good resource for us to learn from, keep up the good work

[@TheAkashDutta]

Yes yes please.... Clarisse tutorials please. A series please. Beginner to pro. I was waiting for this.. 😍

[@mad-cyantist3159]

Clarisse is an Amazing Software and I fell in love with it. the first time I saw it over 5 years Ago! It can handle anything, and the Renders are Just AMAZING

[@mrbennett]

How fast does it render though? Is it near Unreal Engine 5 speeds (realtime when using Lumen or almost realtime with the path tracer)?

[@mad-cyantist3159]

@@mrbennett It's not as real time as it uses CPU, however i believe it now also uses gpu. In terms of rendering final shots, it comes down to your Raytacing options

[@jarabito001]

amazing!! I'm getting this software :) Thanks for the "clarissication" on what Clarisse is use for

[@manmohan_manoj]

I work with clarisse on a daily basis at DNEG, and let me tell you, it's amazing. the debugging is so much easier and it's just magic when it comes to geo.

[@DodaGarcia]

I’ve been curious about Clarisse for a while. Decided to learn the basics of Houdini first but that’s definitely where I’m going next.

[@beinaidoPichaido]

Clarisse is amazing!!

[@DigitalDave]

would love to see some more clarisse! I'm using Cinema 4D at the moment and find it starts chugging quite easily and hinders my speed to iterate

[@davidferrera2927]

I would love to see more about Clarisse, and also about your render farm, how many cores you use and what equipment you have on each machine.

[@coldest_bru]

yes! more of clarisse please!

[@doc_noki]

Great vidéo as usual andrey. Makes me want to give it a try even if it seems soooo much overkill for me.

[@MA-fh7ui]

I vote for Clarisse tutorials, thanks for all this free info :D.

[@brianoisenosumeifidon594]

Thanks Andrey, nice video.

[@melomaniakjm]

Heard about Clarisse a while back, but it looked daunting :)

[@sams_3d_stuff]

Thank you for the video master

[@tecoshaw2502]

I, for the life of me, cannot understand why this video has any dislikes!! People suck. Great vid, brother! I will absolutely try Clarisse! Btw… those trees and the moon scene were exquisite!!!

[@vladan.Poison]

wow.. remembered late Chris Maynard from CMI , ... Chris was very well known artist and teacher and he was in love with Clarisse.. few years back i was watching his course on Clarisse and was heavy headed, and a week later he died.God rest his soul . Anyhow, Andrey looking forward to watching your in depth upcoming tuts on Clarisse.

[@ashrafuzzamankhalid3465]

Clarisse tutorials will be really helpful. There are not many tutorials about Clarisse compared to other softwares...

[@digitalzenith6527]

I have come across some tutorials on Fxphd but not knowing what it really does this stayed under the radar. You got me interested. Thx. Tutorials for beginners would be appreciated.

[@laurentsrey8711]

yep Clarisse is awesome !

[@Lyumins]

Andrey. Thank you for your account. For me this information from you becomes a breakthrough. Greetings from Russia

[@mahhhmood]

Guess I am giving it a shot

[@cesarsfalcao]

Very cool

[@kaont3569]

insane

[@winslowdonovanbeats]

fire

[@57kod]

The viewport remind me to Modo. I use to work with modo and I switched to Blender just because the viewport was really slow and laggy. If Clarisse is that efficient with the viewport and large scale scenes it is something that I will love to explore. Thank you for the video.

[@gonz4610]

yaass please! 🎉

[@darviniusb]

Hehe, yep, is a very insane good software. I wrote you a few times in comments to use it. Render times back a few years ago where not to good for small indie artists. Was slow on the cpus from a few years ago. Now is perfect for these new times with super powerfull cpu's. I would say this is sort of an "endgame" software, the results are big blockbuster quality. You got many levels up in your finaly quality with this :).

[@3crazyclowns]

Yes please! It would be great if you could do some Clarisse's tutorials.

[@Ben-rz9cf]

I had heard of clarisse before, and yeah it seems like the use cases basically involve incredibly dense scenes that would make your normal render engine or 3d package grind to a halt when unreal engine isn't an option. With the new path tracing renderer in 4.27 unreal is way more usable in an offline pipeline but it isn't specifically built for huge offline productions like clarisse is, they're just slowly adding more features for filmmakers.

[@vijayctamil5832]

I would love to see more content about clarisse

[@adventurefilms]

Yes, I would be interested in tutorials! I'm going to pick up a license and try it out

[@toluabisola]

I can only speak for myself but I would absolutely love it if you would create Clarisse tutorials

[@posebukse]

I would LOVE a quick Clarisse video for C4D+Octane users. Where do you animate, do you do expresso and materials in C4D and export alembic to clarisse? Multipass export, mixamo, you know all that stuff. If you basically build your entire scene in Clarisse with assets (like one would with UE5), or how much stuff can be made in C4D first and then ported to Clarisse? It looks incredibly promising, and I’m tempted to buy a permanent license right away.

Damn, I had no clue about Clarisse’s capabilities. I’m gonna have to try it out. I feel out of the loop, knowing this software got past me. I was making a scene last night thinking to myself, I wish emissions on models would act like an actual light source, and then boom, I find out about Clarisse.

[@PlanIT4D]

I have known about Clarisse since version 1, heavy Lightwave 3D awesomeness from the beginning, BUT they went to RENTWARE model, SO lost my interest since then!! Okay, just went to the indie link you provided and they NOW went back to perpetual licence and dropped the price considerably, it wasn't all that long ago that went to their website in hopes they had went back to perpetual licence, very happy to see they finally went back and lowered the price!!

[@v.s.a3826]

Ooohhh

[@senekerc]

Out of curiosity what were the render times on each of these scenes (moon terrain, generic terrain) and how many cores did you throw at it from your farm? For a solo artist or small studio how would you make the case for this tool if they only had like 1-3 machines vs something like Redshift/Arnold/Octane etc.. since I'm I wasn't able to find Clarisse iFX on a few different offsite render farms. Also if you are doing look development in another renderer like Arnold/Redshift/Octane etc.. are you importing any of that into Clarisse at all and/or do those even talk to one another at all? or are you utilizing clarisse as the render engine essentially.

[@sinsterz3586]

Incredible, i feel like ive learned a secret weapon
