Freekstorm VFX Blog

I decided to make a Freekstorm leader to go at the start of my films.
This was rendered using Particles and ICE in XSI then finished in AfterEffects.

Ok, so the quality of the upload sites leaves something to be desired, and my HD video is squished and mangled.

So here is a tryout of embedding the output files I create directly into the page. Lets see how this works.

I got my files uploaded for the competition in time for its closing, but it appears that only 3 people entered. Viewing was supposed to open on the 3rd. I'm still waiting for them to open the viewing options on the movies so I can officially post it here. TBH I'm getting a bit fed up with waiting so I may just post it up anyway.

On another note my HMC-151E is currently packed up to go back to Panasonic for repair or replacement after I posted them a video showing a very noisy image and they agreed that it had excessive chroma noise.
If you want to see how bad it was you can see the original shot file (avchd) here.

To make the image I printed a Macbeth chart on my printer. It doesnt give exact colours but its close enough for the camera test I did.

So I will have about 2 weeks sans camera.

Time to break out the IBL ball and do some rendering. More on that later.

These are some older videos that I wanted to link here so its easier to find them.
