Hi guys, just wanted to show a couple of shots we did for the Swedish
tv series "Jordskott." We did all the 342 vfx shots for all 10
episodes, all cg in Softimage, rendered in Redshift, Houdini for smoke
sim and Nuke for comp.
Here's some of the more interesting ones I think (excuse the compression):
Full cg env and destruction. Redshift+ICE instance scattering achieved
the level of detail, comped using deep data to combine Redshift and
Mantra smoke renders. RS frame time was about 20 minutes on this,
which is the highest I've ever reached with Redshift I think.

Here's a bunch of cg ravens rigged and animated in Softimage, rendered
in Redshift.

This is a face wound-type thing in a dream sequence, Soft+Redshift

All the underwater environments in this sequence is full cg combined
with some green screen uw-plates of the actress. The "entity" is made
with a bit of ICE strand magic. Soft+Redshift, RS really has awesome
volumetrics btw.

sound, without grade)
And about 300 other shots.. =)
We worked for ~8 months with a core team of 3 artists including
myself, and a few more for shorter periods. I also supervised the vfx
on the show, which was a true pleasure! Can't imagine a better tool
for the job than Soft and RS, it's quite remarkable how well they work
together, it's all rendered on cheap GTX780's as well.
So Softimage is alive and well over here at least! The Maya licenses
doesn't even work as a door stop, not sure why we keep them around really.
We'll do a proper reel for the whole season soonish, hope you like it!
Cheers
