All of the FX animation, compositing and grading also happened under one roof at Analog. We shared the modelling with Nexus since it was a massive undertaking with so many products. Nexus also provided us with the amazing character animations and the subtle physical secondary movements of the objects.' Soft was very handy considering we were working on long shots, with so many models (3/4 passes for each object, 13 objects ish in one shot I think) We had all the animation cached out of max from Nexus, and I wrote scripts to clean up obj's, hook up all the objects to their respective caches through ICE, and transfer materials/clusters when we had to bring in new models revisions. Considering how much cache there was moving around soft handled it well! Oh and we rendered in VRay, as the guys here are used to using it for years from Max so I think that helped the transition to Soft! Also, interesting working with another studio like that! I've not done something like that before really.... Cheers! Simon Reeves London, UK si...@simonreeves.com www.simonreeves.com _____ No virus found in this message.
