    What's crazy is, I don't think I saw anything extreme or stupidly complex the entire time. The spatial understanding and creativity to execute what you see inside of Blender using techniques most Blender uses would know is the kicker. The end result is phenomenal!

    Just saying, if you ever decided to put together a 20-40 hour course where you show you production workflow, with modelling tips and shortcuts and best practices doing one of these scenes from start to finish you would have at least one VERY stoked student. I would happily pay ~$80 or $100 for that course and I don't think I am the only one.
    Just food for thought.

    Anyone remember the Minas Tirith Project? It was ages ago (~2003?) about when the third LOTR film came out, and was trying to be a collaborative effort between a bunch of 3d artists who were trying to make a model of Minas Tirith. It took months and they didn't finish it. It's amazing that Blender is free, and powerful enough for one person on their own to do stuff like this.

    • @NinjaFlibble
      @NinjaFlibble 2 года назад +9

      They were probably trying to make it look good even up close. That is a much taller order than this piece. Which is still stunning and better than I can do, don't get me wrong.

      Ну, подумать могли, и даже вполне могли бы всё это на компьютере сделать, но тогда стоимость фильма была бы заоблачной в те времена. Даже сейчас Нолан предпочитает разрушать реальную технику, т.к. это дешевле и реалистичнее, чем компьютерная графика.
      Пример полностью смоделированной на компе сцены - разрушение Барад Дура. Команда хотела, чтобы разрушение башни было максимально реалистичным, но для этого нужна была подробнейшая 3D модель, а впереди было Рождество. Ну, команда ушла на праздники, а один человек вместо отдыха просто самостоятельно сделал полную копию с реального макета. И когда съёмочная команда вернулась с праздников, он такой: "С рождеством вас!" Именно благодаря той модели мы и видим одно из эпичнейших разрушений в истории кино

И на каком железе это рендерить чтоб за год полный метр сделать? Для Голливуда может и не вопрос а если "Труба пониже и дым пожиже" - "Коля , Коля Николай - сиди дома не гуляй!"

    P.S imagine how long it took to create this when they were creating LOTR, cuz even softwares haven't had many useful features that time, so I m guessing they put really lots of hard work to create this amazing city.

      They put in more hard work than you think. They made multiple Minas Tirith live sets and models for different scales at Weta workshop. Those guys really clocked in their hours at LOTR. The funniest part was when they were filming the moment when a ton of skulls fall on Aragorn and the party. They made a TRUCKLOAD of custom skulls, and then figured out they had to do another camera angle with a big picture. And so they also made all those skulls AGAIN in miniature.

    • @marklnz
      @marklnz Год назад

      Minas Tirith in the movie was a miniature set. I say miniature but it was, like, 10 feet tall. Not sure if it's on display any more but I imagine they didn't destroy it - it was an absolute work of art.

    Outstanding job! I learned Blender in my teenage years in the 2000s I loved it. I believe it was version 2.4xx back then. I went into electronics and PCB design and couldn't practice Blender for about 10 years, and now when I downloaded the latest release 3.3.1 I was very frustrated that a lot of key combinations changed, layers changed, the layout changed as well. I'm glad to see the community grow. Best wishes to everyone. Keep up the good work.
