I think i would be much easier solution to ask the guy who's sitting on the backseat to actually brake the window with the other guys head.


awesome job anyway. I just keep admiring you. Im not related anyhow to the compositor industry, just i love to watch these tutorials. Maybe just because i hope one day I can do these tricks by myself.

Anyway. Good work dude.

Andrew, your videos are great. Can you show us how to do the bullet effects from the matrix where neo stops bullets in mid air? That'd be great
by Andreas 07/31/2010
BTW, I found a modified AE3D export script that exports a Phyton script for Blender for all who use Blender:

http://www.sharecg.com/v/32616/Script/Export-After-Effects-Camera-To-Blender

To use it: Run the script in AE and export to Blender py-File then switch to Blender, Change one view to text view, paste the content of the py file into it and hit ALT-P (that runs the script).

Hope that helps some of you
Andreas

by Andreas 07/31/2010
Hi Andrew, Thanks for the very impressive tutorial! One thing that makes me bend my mind is how to create the reflective map. I use the free Microsoft Live-Tools to create panoramic picture but yours look more sphere like and Blender seem to love those more (I am not too experienced in Blender i might note). Thnx for the great tutorial Andreas from Austria

Is it possible to create the glass on its own (using alpha channel),

Red Giant has allready a tutorial which is somehow related to this topic I guess http://www.redgiantsoftware.com/videos/redgianttv/item/11/ but this Titans intro is next level shit!

Hey, Andrew!

Can you please make some tutorials for Cinema 4D?

Regardings from Norway!
by naro 07/24/2010
wow
its really so amazing tutorial
useful at after effects and even in 3d max
but i have some questions
you used "material ray"
what if i used V-ray?
will it make it better or it doesn't effect so much?
and what are scripts?
what is the deferent between a script and another?
can you please answer my questions in simple english?
because its not my first language
and thank you so much for this interesting tutorial
by Nick Josh Karean 07/24/2010
@Andrew Krammer - You mentioned that we need to dolly the camera and then later give it the rotating effect by using AF. Would it also work if we rotated the camera at the scene and then just added in the glass with 3D Max and make the glass rotate together with the footage instead? What are weaknesses you think would be seen if we did it in this method? Thanks.
