Top left is first pass, to the final at bottom right. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597082824536-PQQTOU2M7FMKKH863EO4/Jelly_Beans_Bean_Matte_Demo.gif Jelly Beans Breakdown I was able to use the same Sampler Info node plugged into four ramps with pure RGB colors (the other 9 beans in each case were set to black) to generate a matte for each of the 12 colors of bean. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1596840067262-YWTAXHFBYY5RX0XY5DVV/Diffuse_Ramp_Combo.jpg Jelly Beans Breakdown Overall jelly bean color distribution and a lot of the beans’ main shading attributes were controlled with ramps. The master Diffuse ramp drove the Color Entry List positions of all the downstream ramps so that I didn’t need to edit each one every time I made a change to color distribution. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1596839557852-EO28NG7VP7ZUTNAT1VU6/MASH_Networks.jpg Jelly Beans Breakdown All four of the main collision objects were inside their own dynamic but passive MASH network, all sharing a single Bullet solver. Collisions with the ground were made using the solver’s floor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597107333823-68E60L863HN5K0YZR7BU/Jelly_Beans_F200_CU_1080.jpg Jelly Beans Breakdown http://www.3davy.com/la-salle-de-magritte-breakdown daily 0.75 2020-08-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1593565790417-7H6VQ7MKLJWJQ8I1094C/Me_With_Painting.jpg La Salle de Magritte Breakdown I got to see the original Les Valeurs Personnelles at the Magritte retrospective at San Francisco MOMA, in 2018. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597168967831-DAW1SEZYWFI2INM34M9T/Wardrobe_Diff.jpg La Salle de Magritte Breakdown Since the front of the wardrobe is basically planar to the viewing plane, I was able to extract a texture map for the wood with some simple cloning in Photoshop. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597092556597-GF0FMAN4CE5ZG7KBG54I/Breakdowns_Foots.jpg La Salle de Magritte Breakdown The “foots” were the most complicated thing to model. I Frankensteined a model of a foot I already had. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1593563830272-DDTH5JRXXKXE5XZI088U/Wireframe.jpg La Salle de Magritte Breakdown Accurately turning the 2D image into a 3D scene was challenging, with the need to achieve camera-plane accuracy to the painting while also maintaining 3D spatial integrity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1593716970152-O6SXJXL2X8YNI5ZF7L1R/Breakdowns_Top_Down.jpg La Salle de Magritte Breakdown The shot was created without any cheats for the mirrors, with the exception of a second bar of soap. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597107214595-VMBCMZZ6AGVNXNAHT40J/La_Salle_de_Magritte_F001.jpg La Salle de Magritte Breakdown http://www.3davy.com/ashtray-breakdown daily 0.75 2020-08-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597354306987-28M7MYCB1RTP6IUR57RS/AshLayout.jpg Ashtray Breakdown I used a MASH network with a Placer node to paint the large lumps of ash onto a non-rendering copy of the bottom of the ashtray. This allowed me to interactively place the overall level of the ash to avoid penetrations with the ashtray. A separate MASH network, also with a Placer node, was used to paint individual flecks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597362880487-YEPBW7PZX9IQO9PV75TQ/Cigs_Ref.jpg Ashtray Breakdown I created 10 versions of my five types of cigarettes in one file, deleting history on the rigs as I went to allow me to finish the process of “burning” them and making them all unique with geometry and shader edits. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597342422738-XRENDX58ZYHJV950L8IC/Ashblobs.jpg Ashtray Breakdown Using my MASH “ash maker” I output a bunch of differently shaped lumps of ash. Because they were no longer instances, I was able to create additional variations just by deleting handfuls of individual flecks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597344493239-5MY2XAATLOSNHEEIBTAV/Cigarette_Rig.jpg Ashtray Breakdown The master cig-rig was set up to create all five types of cigarette and the ability to “burn” and “stub”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57476b1386db432b4c4c5101/1597107333823-68E60L863HN5K0YZR7BU/Jelly_Beans_F200_CU_1080.jpg Ashtray Breakdown
