Popular Post MicahMahaffey Posted March 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2018 Here is a VFX heavy short film I shot on the Samsung NX1 years ago, finally decided to finish it and get it online so here it is! The last scene is the canon T3i all lenses used are the rokinon 24mm f1.4 and Canon 50mm f1.4 Watching in 4k is strongly recommended as YouTube loves compressing things heart0less, webrunner5, Nicholson Ruiz and 12 others 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juxx989 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Man I don't even want to ask how long it took to model animate and render that stuff... I started in the Late 90's On Newtek Lightwave 3D then moved to 3D studio Max... But could never Get my Legs in MAYA (I really dislike Maya. Perhaps if I learned it first but back then it was a $15,000 Program and you had to have a $10,000 computer to run it!) What did you use for this? I see by the credits only about 4 people worked on this. If I had to make something I would probably use Cinema 4D + After effects. Any How: Verrry Cool. <div class="tenor-gif-embed" data-postid="7808508" data-share-method="host" data-width="100%" data-aspect-ratio="1.7785714285714287"><a href="https://tenor.com/view/very-cool-nodding-gif-7808508">Very Cool Nodding GIF</a> from <a href="https://tenor.com/search/verycool-gifs">Verycool GIFs</a></div><script type="text/javascript" async src="https://tenor.com/embed.js"></script> https://tenor.com/view/very-cool-nodding-gif-7808508 MicahMahaffey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used element 3D inside after effects for 98% of it all. Used blender for some modeling. Id be getting close to finishing when I'd suddenly have a cool idea for a sequence and figured it would be a good time to learn. The original script for this film was 4 pages, ended up being a 15 minute film, yikes! got a little carried away haha, I couldn't imagine working with #D animation a few years ago. Thanks for watching! :D On 3/18/2018 at 11:33 PM, Matthew Hartman said: @MicahMahaffey Great stuff. I've been following your stuff for a couple years now. Great addition. THANKS!

IronFilm Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Impressed it is just Element 3D with a teeny teeny bit of Blender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've since jumped full force into blender since the 2.8 update and it's been a truly amazing tool! Highly recommended for any filmmakers out there. Element 3D is great, but obviously its very limited in comparison and more designed for 3D motion graphics. BUT! It was the best beginner 3D tool out there at the time.

Did you apply the mods published on this forum? Nope! This was shot like a few weeks after the NX1 released. It took a bit to finish because of all the VFX. Man do I wish I knew about the nx1 mod! (just did a quick search to see what you were talking about) This is the first im hearing of it! The NX1 isnt my main camera now but I still use it all the time, Will definitely put the mod on it!

MicahMahaffey Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 I pretty much only use a 24mm 1.4 and a 50mm 1.4 for everything haha Definitely great! Would love a 10bit log nx1 mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesco Tasselli Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Guys.. it is amazing how much the NX1 still holds in 2020 (not considering ISO limitations). I continually compare the footage of the NX1 with that of the other cameras I use and still continue to prefer what the damn NX1 sensor produces.
