Inception VFX Breakdown - Dream World Cafe Scene | Recreating The Scene

[@CreativeArtFilmss]

Some people criticizing him about vfx . Look at him alone he is doing every thing. In minimum budget

[@wootystyletv]

Yep. Doubling or even tripling the people and budget on board with this would be insane. Good job man!

[@konradplatt3833]

I think he didnt mention how long he was working on it. Thats where the cost comes from. If he worked more than 5hours on it. The actual budget is nowhere near 350,-

[@WEGYAN]

That what i about to comments, really well done single-handedly....

[@beegees21]

What difference does it make? You either set your goal and go for it or - if you can't achieve it - you set out for something you can. You either deliver or you don't. In this case he didn't.

[@98JamesNixon]

The only thing that didn’t sell the vfx for me was the lighting, just didn’t seem to blend in with the scene. Other then that it was very well done

[@NimithChanceson]

@MP4 Actually, both. But only for VFX layers

[@johncuevas7084]

I use Element3D too and as he was doing the scene, I was thinking he needs to take pictures to create an environment/global illumination map. Otherwise, very well done.

[@Lensbreak]

great CGI, i think your inception scene lacked mostly confincing Sound Effects, with that i would be closer to the real movie ;)

[@sandeepamrutham]

Which scene from Inception would you like us to recreate next? 🎥🎬

[@shantkiraz1838]

The explosion scene from Children of Men could be cool!

[@akshaysingh7807]

Dunkirk if possible

[@Friendly_Squirrel]

The scene where Cobb and Ariadne are walking through the streets of London and then they walk onto a perpendicular wall. The story behind how they achieved that effect is quite interesting! And if there's time do Ariadne warping all the buildings with her mind; only if there's time of course. ;)

@@octap79 I think he meant as far as AE capability of achieving it. Personally I think It's possible, AE is essentially a compositing software.

[@bossgbini]

The absolute best Chanel for filmmaking

[@Mundm28]

only thing that bothers me is tha 3d part, i mean its nice to see it in after effects, but it doesnt outweigh the MUCH better results you would get with traditional 3d software (even free ones like blender) if you load in the sequence there and export the composit to your NLE. i mean there is no bounced lighting no hdr lightsource to integrate the models into the scene, it just looks strange. otherwise great video, and i guess it is a bit intimidating to get your hands on 3d software if you just want to make a short movie so it is kinda ok

[@apexmedia2089]

It's amazing to see the possibilities but you're right it kinda falls down for me with the 3d objects. They look like clipart drawings. With what you call a traditional 3d software, would you get better looking 3d objects? Or could you still use AE but just make it look realistic by spending more money on the 3D objects? That might be easier than learning real 3d software. Thanks. Good job on your videos, Studio Binder.

[@Mundm28]

@@apexmedia2089 with 3d software there is not necessarily a difference in the models, you can use the same ones they bought online(they were made wirh traditional 3d packages in the first place). what makes a difference is the way it is rendered. they mentioned it is all realtime, which means it is rendered like a Computer game with a process called rasterization which usually means you dont have indirect lighting and all calculations regarding material and lightinf are just approximated for the sake of speed. Most 3d softwares use monte carlo raytracers nowadays that simulate individual lightrays and stuff in a fashion that simulates how real light works, but takes minutes-hours to calculate each individual frame(if you get crazy with the complexity of your scene there is really no limit upwards), because each light ray is bounced of surfaces multiple times and creates new scattered lightrays etc. also 3d packages have a LOT more settings to finetune your virtual image(which of course makes them look cluttered and complicated). but i guess if they would add an option for non-realtime rendering into the addon perhaps by utilizing a standalone 3rd party raytracer behind the scenes you could enhance the results without complicating the process for the user too much.

[@apexmedia2089]

​@@Mundm28 Thanks for your reply Martin. I love the storytelling possibilities of 3D. I'll look into what you described.

[@Mundm28]

@@apexmedia2089 you should look at Ian Huberts channel. Hes a guy wo does cg stuff for netflix movies, ed sheeran music videos and a lot of other things you may have seen here and there. He made a really impressive Webseries like back in 2012 with lots of cg and dystopian stuff that he makes follow ups now and then till today. Also his talk at Blendercon this year about how he uses a kinda "quick and dirty" way to do stuff with 3D, is hilarious and he does "lazy tutorials" that maybe are not for absolute beginners but when you grasped the basics of where wich button should be, they are much more entertaining than the usual boring 1h tutorial

This was literally so good! The main thing that pulled it together though was Element 3D. The VFX people would have coloured the objects flying around, or at least re-lit them so that they blended in with the background lighting, particularly the white cups and saucers. That is literally my only criticism. This was done so well, though... very impressed. I was literally watching Inception the other day and wondered how they shot this scene at the cafe!
