Scale Model Archviz animation [Update: bottom page1)

kwistenbiebel

Thanks guys.
I rendered the animation in 2 parts. Each part rendered for 9,5 hours, so that would mean about 19 hours in total (on a Mac Pro). Initially @20 fps, but I managed to stretch it to a 30fps animation by using a temporal smoother in Virtual Dub.

nice..that HDRI totally makes it look real...very cool.

how do you export these to render, anyway? sorry if you explained this in a previous thread..

kwistenbiebel

In Sketchup, you open the Fry 'environment' panel and you get to assign a HDR image.
I needed to do some test renders to see how the HDR background would match the model realistically (offset and rotation values). That part was trial and error.Actually the background wasn't a real HDR but a plain 8 bit image used as lighting+background.

no no...sorry, i wasnt clear.. i meant the animation portion..

kwistenbiebel

To render the animation, I open the 'Fry render settings' panel in Sketchup, click on 'full animation' and hit the render button. Is that what you mean?

Excellent animation, Chris...!! I really like it a lot..!!

I assume that Jason is asking about what application you've used to assemble the video/animation...?!
You already told you've used VirtualDub to assemble the jpeg's Fry is generating, but you also seem to have used a video editor app. to add some effects...
(Going from BW to color etc...)

Well - I'm only guessing... <--- genuine wink

you know what kwistenbiebel,
why dont you cut off the four walls, THE ROOM that trapp your model
And Let IT FLY ¡¡¡¡
AND lAND IN A MEDITERRANEAN BEACH
and then, once landed, make a new animation in that opened blue sun light sea and see what happens ?

Not exactly what you had in mind, but I did give it a completely different setting in this video:

Excellent rendering! Must have taken you a long time to do it.

Just great Kwist. Whats the music from your latest render, the nature scene?

kwistenbiebel

Thanks.
The song is 'You Don't Know' by Milo

Fantastic once again. Interesting the way you change the shadows during the animation.. is it merely a matter of changing the sun position when creating each new scene tab? And a somewhat off topic, but is it possible to scale the size of the HDRI background or is it only possible to scale the model to suit the HDRI? Thanks for the great animations

JuanV.Soler

now,
Kwistenbiebel, the last match for you,
could it be possible you include in the setting of this video a view of the sea ? wherever you like it ?
)
and including a double pass_through the house ?
thanks

kwistenbiebel

I am afraid positioning a HDR is a bit of trial and error as it is not done WYSIWYG.
But its better than moving your model , as it screws up the views (scene tabs) you already prepared.

fantastic work!!!!!
but, i'm loosing my mind trying to congigure HDRI in my images!!! i get the correct illumination but the backgroung looks terrible.. is there any topic here where i can get directions on how to configure this???????
thks guys!

rombout

It looks like he used tree models and scaled them really big. If you look really good you can see the HDRi true the branches. It think thats why he has this fantastic shade over his model? but im just a newby letting my imagination loose on it
