I can’t believe this is real!!! 🤯
Getting my art onto the Sphere has been my biggest goal for years and now it’s a reality. I’m so grateful and honored, and stoked that @Abel_Okugawa joined me on this ride. His music is the other half of my art 💛
Entranced by “Viridian Lightfall,” the first XO/Art collaboration inspired by 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘞𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘖𝘻 𝘢𝘵 𝘚𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦.
Representing Dorothy’s journey from sepia Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, digital artist David Ariew takes viewers on a visual color story that begins in a field of golden light and builds through a crescendo of color before arriving at the luminous green of Emerald City.

One of the coolest things about hybrid filmmaking is being able to preserve a real actor's performance while changing everything around them.
Here's a test where we turned simple greybox footage shot @promise_ai into a cinematic cliffside scene using AI.
Check out the 🧵 below for the exact steps and prompts we used in this workflow.

When a vfx pro like hector conjures up worlds in houdini using voice notes - it just mogs all other opus builds.
Seasoned creators can zoom out to create at an unprecedented scale without losing track of the details.
Because they go from playing the instruments to conducting the orchestra.
En esta prueba he querido poner Claude al límite con Houdini (modelo Opus 5.5). He montado toda la escena hablándole al iPhone para ver dónde está el límite, y mi conclusión es que no hay límite. Esto que veis es donde he puesto el freno, hay cosas que corregir aún pero quiero seguir experimentando con otros proyectos.
El render ha tardado 50 horas en mi 5090 dado lo compleja que es la escena, volumétricas etc.
El color grading lo he hecho en Davinci trabajando en Aces y también lo hice hablándole al teléfono con el MCP de Davinci.
Me cuesta imaginar un futuro donde no vayamos a trabajar con esto de forma masiva.
The future is nowwwww 🤯

Such beautiful work it’s absurd 🤩
Xを始めて2年経ったのでこれまで3DCGで作ったものをまとめました
私はCG・映像業界の就職経験や美大・専門卒などの学歴はなく、全く別の業界で文系出身の会社員として働きながら独学でCGを作っています
まだまだ発展途上ですが、これからも理想の映像を追求していくのでよろしくお願いします
#Houdini
Amazing to see people experiencing my mirror dimension 🫶🪞
From 2 years to a few days of rendering.
@DavidAriew rendered his 16K Quantum Stargate for @artechouse on Render Network. On one of his own machines, he calculated it would have taken two years.
Experience it at ARTECHOUSE DC as part of SUBMERGE.

The neat thing about my workflow is its the same whether I'm making a realistic or stylized illustration!
The thing that sets them apart is the shaders. In my upcoming course, I'll set you up with the foundation to be able go into your own direction!
Want to Learn how to make some cool shit?
Join the waitlist to stay tuned on a new course I'm developing!

💯 agree with this. The more fidelity you create in 3D the more you’re actually constraining the model and introducing unrealistic animation.
True especially for characters!

いつの間にかみんな？もMCPとか含めAIをアシスタント的に常時使用してたりして変化早い
ジェネラリストCG作業でAIを使っている人は分かると思うけど想像しているよりも相当使える
今までの自分のワークフローが変わるくらいには使えてしまう

Best of the best 🔥
The power of combining Houdini with generative AI and then scaling it across production work flows is absolutely mind blowing! What you are seeing in this video is a crowd favorite, a threading technique that we have been using for years for clients. And after running some tests, we are showing the scaling of that procedural technique across all four sports leagues ~ 120 teams. Completely automated. HUGE shoutout to our team for continuing to push these CG + Ai workflows
This is going to be RIDICULOUS ❤️🔥

Blenderを自分では一度も触らずにAIのみでBlenderシーンを作るテスト途中
モデリングも含めてAIのみという縛り
なるべくクオリティ出るようにやり方組み合わせた
Sooooooo COOL!!!
The Remaining View is a simple idea, with the intention that the blind doesn’t simply cover the landscape, but that the landscape reorganizes itself around what is still visible. The tree bends, the sun moves, and time passes. Instead of hiding behind the horizon, the sun becomes the moon, rolling through the grass.
It’s still a piece in evolution, and I’m continuing to push the technology behind it, but I really liked the simplicity of the idea and couldn’t resist sharing it already.
