50’s diner - progress

in Realistic 50's diner for film production

I made a render of one of the cameras and it seemed that the “blobs” from the final gathering flickered
a lot. I post a video so you can see. So I have been trying to eliminate those as much as I can, and it works
but it’s still some there. It takes a lot of time to render, and I have more cameras with the same problem, so I just have
to deal with some flickering.

This is the first test:

and this is how it looks from another camera:

50’s diner - finished lighting

in Realistic 50's diner for film production

I’m finally finished with the lighting, though there are some minor problems. mostly quality problems that will increase the rendertime, and I don’t
have the time. As you can see, there are “blobs” from the final gathering and the sunlight (directional light) also makes some strange artifacts in the shadows.
For this image I rendered out occlusion and made some color corrections as well. There will be some depth of field too in the final comp.
I had problems to find good images for the outside, so I will leave them white.

50s diner - lighting progress

in Realistic 50's diner for film production

This week I have been lighting a lot. I have also tested to use global illumination in combination with final gather, which I
realized (as I thought from the beginning) is not going to work. the rendertime is too much. So I decided to only use FG and
some other lights to fill up the scene. The time of the day is going to be morning, and this is how it looks so far..
The glass looks a bit wierd, I also need something for the outside.

50’s diner - Light test

in Realistic 50's diner for film production

This week I put up a quick (not quick in rendering) light test to see how the textures actually look like.
I also worked a lot with glass and metal-materials, which I’m not quite satisfied with yet. I had to make several of these,
some of them look good, and some I have to work with more.
The texturing is not complete yet, I think I’m going to work with texturing and lighting back and forth next week.

50’s diner - progress

I have made an update on the previz, new angles and with some other changes.
I’ve also started texturing this week, not as much though. I have to hurry up next week.

50s diner - The scene

in Realistic 50's diner for film production

I’ve been modeling the scene this week and I’m almost finished with all the objects. I don’t know yet
what more I will add, probably a jukebox. But now I will start texturing.
I have extended a bit of the scene, adding more tables and chairs because it was just too small before.
Because of that I have to change a bit of my camera angles to show that area more. A second previz with
the objects will come up to MS2.

50’s diner - modeling progress

in Realistic 50's diner for film production

I’ve modeled all the smaller objects that is necessary for the diner. Most of the other objects
are done aswell, I post a picture of those before friday.
I think I will be done with the modeling a couple of days before schedule, which is great.

50’s diner - first previz

in Realistic 50's diner for film production

I made a simple previz to decide the camera angles. Right now, it’s extremely boring to watch without the
correct models. anyway, I might change a bit on the cameras when i have done all the modeling. Maybe cut off
some of the first clip, and add more angles.

to view it, click on the title to this post.
