Maxx 1 #1 June 13, 2007 Hey everyone, here is a 30 sec clip I produced for Greenpeace (SPEC). It's heavy CGI with some live elements.. I hope you like it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhvPFP0iGQU Feedback welcome! Max Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
souleh 0 #2 June 13, 2007 Very good! What was that produced in, and how long did it take you? 'buttplugs? where?' - geno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxx 1 #3 June 13, 2007 We started out with Maya, but then quickly converted to Softimage XSI due to our internal workflow. We started producing it at the end of November 06 and finished it end of May 07. We did the live action takes in February and then integrated the captures into the scene.. This is a speculative spot, so it's produced without any support from greenpeace (except the yellow jackets ) Thanks for your feedback Max Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DougH 270 #4 June 13, 2007 Am I the only one who finds a sky diver making a green peace comercial a little ironic? I know your all a bunch of hippies, but you jump out of emission spewing airplanes that have little benifit to society other then personal gratification. Green peace and others would be happy to put you all in little cube cities and bar you from ever again stepping foot in the "wilderness" if they could. That being said the clip is cool, but why all cg? "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the reason why I convert to basejumping very soon All CG because we had a very small budget and couldn't afford to do everything in real.. and it wouldn't be possible to get the shots in those conditions..

I think this is the first thread I got moved to the SC, is that beer.

vortexring 0 #7 June 13, 2007 Bit rough to be launching an inflatable - and with full sail too! Yer Captain's a nutter - I assume that's him on the stern puking up a bellyful of rum???

Amazon 7 #8 June 13, 2007 I am sure the guy on the aft deck is to represent most of the people who would join GP.... but not have the gumption to actually go out and do something on the front lines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dorbie 0 #9 June 13, 2007 Very impressive, and it's a great commercial. Did you do the live action composite post render inside Softimage or did you import the live action & render it within the scene? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amazon 7 #11 June 13, 2007 I LOVE taking my boat out in conditions like that.... the North Pacific is great for some SWEEEEET sailing.. especially crossing the mouth of the Columbia River where it dumps into the ocean... I keep my little red boat there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_Bar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our deadline was not moveable anymore, so we did it the "dirty way" and rendered the live action inside the scene.. Had some advantages and some disadvantages, but at least everything got finished..

Trent 0 #15 June 13, 2007 Pretty outstanding work, even if it is for those dirty hippies! Oh, hello again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vortexring 0 #16 June 13, 2007 That's pretty cool! Although I do prefer the Western Caribbean and Indian ocean myself. 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!"
