JPGFILE: crucify.jpg RENDERER USED: Maya native TOOLS USED: Maya, Maya Fusion, Final Cut Pro, RENDER TIME: Total 5-6 min per frame 3d 20-30 seconds per frame composite HARDWARE USED: Sony TRV8, NT and Apple workstation IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Pretty self explanatory no? DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: (it was planned as a still, but i decided to extend it to an animation.) live action was shot on the sony TRV 8, captured on Final Cut Pro and exported as a series of targas. the man is modelled in Nurbs with full c1 continuity, based on a public domain source model. (i 'lightened' the model considerably, geometrically as well as aesthetically-he was a bit he-man) inverse kinematic skeleton setup, using rotate plane solvers for more control over the angle of the arms and legs the dollar sign is also modelled in nurbs,using Algerian D as the font. Used a spot light and a few point lights, volumetric light effects matchmoved with the background by hand. the loincloth had softbodies and wind dynamics applied. it was rendered in 2 passes, one for the model and one for the glow. Used scanline rendering, no raytracing was used. the 2 3d layers and live action layer were brought into maya fusion, where the daytime live action was turned into night and the 3d composited in, film grain added and various colour corrections, depth of field was also added in 2d.
