Title: CGCookie – Create a VFX shot in Blender: Alien Abduction
Info:
Make this VFX shot your own
Although we are working step-by-step on one shot, this effect is meant to be totally customizable so you can tweak the settings and make an entirely different result.
It’s completely up to you!
Reconstructing the footage in 3D
We will begin the course by reconstructing our footage in 3D, so we can set up the correct shadow and light passes needed for compositing
UFO 3d Model is Included in the Course
Then, we will animate an included 3D UFO model into our shot, and fracture the roof of the house using a rigid-body simulation.
Finally, we will wrap everything up in the compositor and go over specific compositing techniques such as light wrapping, crypto mattes, and using masks and different blend modes to create our final shot.
While a base-level knowledge of Blender is assumed, there’s something in this course for beginners to intermediate users alike who want to sharpen their VFX skills.
Included in the course:
Footage of the house
3d UFO model
Bonus lesson: Adding Window Glow
Warning:Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus, and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the installed app. Some of the materials posted here are grabbed from CGPeers, so it could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link (higher than 30% positive result). Thank you.
