And here are the Redshift docs on the various Render Channels, with World Position at the top of the list: http://docs.redshift3d.com/Default.html#I/AOVs aka Render Channels.html

I always admire your work..

Specially with the whole “small budget, can do, latest secret weapon tech studio” vibe you guys give!

When you refer to the World Position framebuffers, what are they and how did you use them? Those shots were great. =)

Thanks Jason.

Yes, we did that with Redshift and a very small "farm" (more like a garden really... is that a thing? A Render Garden?). By the time my lighting tasks got passed on to me, I had about a month to light all of my 75 shots. It was a CRAZY schedule, but I honestly can't think of any other renderer available for Soft currently that could have done that for us, especially on the budget we had. The longest frame times were the daytime exterior ones where you see a lot of wide open spaces in the background. Those averaged around 40-45min per frame using Brute Force only. Generally, frames were much faster than that. Anywhere from 3-4 to 11-12.

Everything was done in Softimage and Fusion, with a little After Effects for a couple of quick fixes. Cloth was ICE-based Syflex, long hair was Kristinka. Short hair was standard Softimag hair primitives.

World Position framebuffers were very useful on this, and that's how comp did the transition from "night" to "day" in that frame you posted.
