I just finished recording 3 hours of training for the Explosive Train sequence so while I finish editing that... check out this amazing demo from ILM on the VFX work for The Avengers. 3 Hours of recorded training is probably 1.5 hours after editing out rendering and bad jokes. Stay tuned, it's a big series.

Wow, that digital New York is insane. It never even occurred to me that they weren't really shooting in New York. I guess that means they did their jobs right!
Andrew,
could you please say something about this, anything
I started this thread but nobody didn't say anything it's about how they were using 3D spheres for projecting on geometry:

Woah there! Don't be so hasty with those scissors Mr Kramer. If the bad jokes go, I go.
And I don't wanna go. This sites keeps me productive. The rest of the web, generally, doesn't.

Meh - I was excited to see this new tutorial, up until everybody keeps saying it used FumeFX.
I've already spent enough money on AE/Optical Flares/Pro Scores/Action Essentials etc.
Don't fancy spending MORE money on another plug in. What happened to all the tutorials that were just made inside of AE, without expensive plugins.

I usually don't request a Tut but the Avengers FX Breakdown really got me interested in the warping from one equirectangular map into another and so on. Can you figure out a way to do this inside AE or is this only possible with the big boys toys?
Mental note: TOP WEB UP and grab some food and sunlight, might be a while before i go afk when this drops.
I wouldn't have graduated uni recently without u Andrew.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do I get a red response? :p

Hey andrew, Great job!
and i wanted to remind you about the reflections of the explosion on the train.
If it's fume FX what about the people like me who have no idea how to use it? can you give us some alpha channel materials of the fume FX explosion?

i can't believe they did camera projections for every freaking window of the buildings, i must say it was very clever but ._. it's too much work, now i see why this movies costs hundreds of millions of dollars.
Thanks for sharing Andrew, i'm a big fan of you.

Like any good creative project. If you don't do the prep, create the resources, do the hard work first - the narrative, the storytelling part, is compromised.
It's old advice, but its good advice.

The amount of and depth of the detail is mind boggling. When you hear of a films $250 to $300 million price tag, it almost seems too little. The amount of man hours needed to put something of this magnitude together is staggering. Thanks for the glimpse Andrew. My dream of following in your footsteps has now been slightly squashed! Ha ha.

Will this tutorial cover the creation of the FumeFX explsions? I've been doing some FumeFX R&D on my own, and I've almost got it there, but I haven't nailed it yet.

They should've used Metropolitan. Would have saved them tons of time trying to re-create all of those buildings!
