TL;DR:

As long as my Patreon page is paused, new subscribers can’t join and access the existing content, and I get a lot of requests to open it again. So to let them subscribe, I’m reopening Patreon, BUT...

Patreon = Development blog

Hi guys.

You might have seen in the beginning of my previous post that I had resumed work on a short movie we started on a few years ago but shelved pretty quickly.

It'll be a metric TON of work, but I'm really looking forward finally...

Food for thoughts - My 3D Symposium presentation

This video took a while to make. It's a run-down of my 3D Symposium presentation which has been a high request for Patreon, however, in this video I'm diving deeper into the topics than I did in the original presentation.

Airplane Window - Scene file

Hey guys. As per request, here's the scene file for the airplane scene. Sadly I had to remove the HDRI and the wing, but I replaced it and it's still looking fairly good. Well, except the 1-sided plane wing that is. The scene also includes a LUT, ...

How to render animations FAST in FStorm

Yes, animations can be a pain. When a client ask about animations, you start worrying about how long it will take you to render it.

Here's a neat little trick to reduce your rendertime almost 10x with ALMOST the same quality. 

Airplane window view + Lightroom editing

As explained in the video, I've been wanting to try to edit renders the same way I edit photos; in Lightroom. Had some troubles with it, and still do, but it works pretty well.

Here's a video of building this airplane window view in 3Ds Max...

Hi guys. 

Let me apologise, I scheduled this video to be posted quite a while ago actually, but something went wrong and I didn't notice until now.

Anyway, here it is and I hope it's useful!

Adding ground to bottom-less HDRI's

Hey,

I was asked to make a video on how we added the bottom half of the HDRI's (ground) to HDRI's that were missing it, for example CG-Source.

[AUG] Breakdown - Teapot clouds scene

Hi guys,

I know this video should've been made two years ago, but... here it is. 

This is not an in-depth tutorial because the main techniques here have been shown in other videos (linked below) so I was hoping I could condense it...

Hey guys. This video is actually not for this Patreon page. And it's really intended for being public, but we're still designing the intros and outros so for now, we'll just share it on Patreon.  Since it exists, I might just as well share it...

Mustang pt.10

Here's probably the last video in the mustang series, night scene with FStorm Volumetrics. The approach is a bit more conceptual, not my proudest creations in any way but hopefully the video will convey some know-how that you can use in your own p...

Mustang pt.7

Sorry guys, I'm not really happy with this video. Not that the result wasn't good, but because I didn't really know what I was doing and it feels like the video is twice as long as it needs to be. Feel free to scrub it through.

Also, in th...
