Ha ha, no your vote counts buddy. I don’t care if it yields money. Thanks for your comment! 🤙
Yes, this animation took 2 quarters to complete from start to finish. 1st quarter was building models, texturing, lighting and rigging, then the animation of the characters. Then second quarter was all rendering. 😊🤙
Does rendering still take ages?
Sadly yes, it takes a lot of processing power to render each frame. Think about it this way, a movie is 24-30 frames a second right? So I’m a “motion picture” movie, you have to render each frame “like a photograph” 24 photos for 1 second of film, times that by 60 seconds and you get “144 pictures” to render for 1 minute of film, then times it by how long your short film or feature film is, and you get the idea...
Each single frame can take up to 25 minutes or longer to render... so as you can see, it takes a very long time. Even in awesome movies today, all the special effect overlaying over live action footage... it’s crazy.
I just got back from seeing the movie 🎥 Maze Runner “The Death Cure” and it was amazing... blows me away... the VFX and Motion Graphics were spot on... outstanding
Interesting, I thought computers would be faster now days. I am going to check out the new maze runner, thanks for the tip!
Totally, and they are, but not as fast as we need them to be for rendering video, animation and motion graphics. Cheers 🍻 😎🤙
