Musicvideo finished

Haven’t been posting for some time now.

Here’s a musicvideo I did with a friend, who did all the drawing. Software used: 3dsMax with Vray Renderer, Photshop, Aftereffects.

Premiered nearly a year ago on a youtoube-HipHop-channel. Until now 50,000 viewers, and really good feedback.

It was a good experience after working on a project for nearly half a year with ups and downs to get that response.

Can’t wait to start a next collaboration but this time a shortfilm with a more social critical approach.

Pre-Showreel 2009/2010

This is just a little showreel with some of the stuff I did during my internships at DecadeOne and ModusX and the VFX work for the shortmovie “Karakul” (www.karakul.de”).

VFX-Work for shortmovie “Karakul”

I did a little work at the side for the shortmovie “Karakul” by a beginning director in Munich. Release will be soon.

There were a few short scenes where I had to do some smoke and fire.

I just got the clean footage with some colour correction, then modelled a car in 3dsMax, lit it up with FumeFX, rendered the whole thing and did some compositing in AfterEffects (mainly some masks, surrounding lights and mirroring in the eyes of the protagonist).

Although it was nobudget-work, I really had a nice time doing the first VFX in HD-quality.

It’s funny that I hadn’t  the most problems with creating the effects but matching the right angle, focal distance and field of view of the footage with the camera in 3dsMax. (I really had no information about the camera adjustments and it drove me nuts to tweak around for hours until I got it right)

I’m looking forward to more of such things soon at my internship at the VFX-Department at ARRI in Munich.

So until then (in september) I will do much more tutorials on that stuff and will update this site monthly to document my skills.

So here are the best scenes (a bit short but hey for the first time it’s looking quite good in my opinion):

BMW Oracle Model Render

I modelled this BMW Oracle Trimaran during my last internship at ModusX, (3dsMax & Vray Render).
I didn’t invest too much time for the backgrounds, maybe another time.

Logo Animation

this is a logo trailer i did for my ex-company.

modeled in 3ds max, smoke with fumefx, fragmentation with Rayfire-Plugin by Mir Vadim, physics with physx-engine by nvidia,

rendering with final render.

sorry for the poor quality, but it’s just a test render.

Showreel ’08

This is my first showreel. I made it shortly after finishing at Qantm Institute.

There’s a mix of everything I’ve learned, from modelling, texturing, compositing to drawing and photographs.

Here’s a short trailer for a fictive Pc-Game I did back at Qantm Institute.

All done in 3ds Max, Compositing and sound  in After Effects.
