Commission, Flu Virus Render

Hey guys, he's a render of flu virus inside the cell releasing its RNA, I know the particles arn't quite right with the camera movements but overall I'm fairly pleased. It is meant to look like it's underwater by the way. Any thoughts could be appreiciated.  I know it's not perfect but it's whether or not I get time to tweek it.

  1. don't want to rain on your parade, Justin - but effective though much of this is, the learner driver in charge of the camera is unpicking much of what is potentially elegant about this scene; I suggest you reconsider your camera; you've got it coming to an abrupt halt, when, if the camera were suspended in fluid, it would actually always be in motion; you need to consider too 'slow-ins' and 'slow-outs' of principle movements, to give a more relaxed and less didactic feel; this obviously took a while to get ready - but it's not right; and there's a massive difference between 'getting it done' and 'getting it right' - and your attitude is a bit lame; if you know it's not right (which it isn't) should there really be any doubt as to whether or not you're going to fix it for your client? Quality control, Justin...

  2. There's a reason why the camera stops that's not apparent here it will acually stop for longer, this isn't what it will be like when finnished, it still needs editing and text explainations as to what is happening. I'm asking for opinions on the rendering not the camera moves, as they will be changed in the editing :P

    I guess this was the bit I was objecting to, Justin - and how can you change embedded camera moves in editing - indeed, why make decisions that are 'wrong' or at least 'not right' in the hope that they can be finessed in post?

  4. I was refering to the particles when I said it's not perfect. The camera in context with the editing will looks great. The scene has been chopped up and had other parts inserted into it giving discriptions of what's taking place. I'm using Peter's idea of making the text feel like old film when the writing comes in. And to be honest if I say it's not perfect it's because I'm being modest. Mark my words it will look fantastic :P
