dude just trying to like find a model
last night I was like starting to get a
little ill I know you're messing with me
but like a primal part of me just
panicked
[Music]
oh dude hey Jessa check out that
wallpaper I just threw this on the
corridor subreddit so if you want this
as a wallpaper go check it out today it
works first because we are beginning
visual effects on our first quarter
video of the year and I'm actually
really excited it's been like a month
and a half since I got really dive into
some visual effects so let's get into it
they spent the last couple days editing
this sequence that they shot over the
weekend it actually turned out pretty
funny at this point you probably know
the concept he shoots webs out of his
butt there are a number of effects here
I think there's at least a dozen it's
not too many but a couple of them are
gonna be a little challenging we have to
do some rope simulations
there's several shots where I gotta like
add like this mosaic censored effect
over his but here's the thing though I
do not like spiders and that is an
understatement I was I've resisted my
whole life from doing any sort of spider
effects cuz they make me sick this is
like the classic spider-man shot where
the the spider dangles down from the
lens as the lenses pointed down and I
realized that wasn't as bad as last
night was that Brit I might head it now
viewers might not believe me at Dubai I
have to actually find a high quality
spider model which I want to absolutely
not do and then also animate the legs
another thing that I have dreaded my
entire life and then render it out as
photo-real as I can I'm just gonna type
spider
I'm already is that even a 3d model that
looks real man
I mean that is a pretty nicely detailed
video you know how like you're supposed
to face your fears by the picture can we
like just pause that for a moment please
man now I'm getting flashbacks it's like
times in my life there's a time when I
was doing construction on the house and
I picked up a rubber boot and a black
widow crawled right out of it and over
my hand and I dropped it and went home
here's $100 black widow it's this really
high detail
pretty dang high detail there's even
hair on it yeah this one's not bothering
me as much
your head I'm sorry I'm sorry I ran so
funny so funny everyone blanks here
check this out it's the easiest
simulation you can do is I have 3ds max
open right now and if I just make a box
then I make a plane just make a big
planet plane is just like a flat box hit
the t-shirt button move it up and over
I'm gonna hit the play button basically
you do a cloth some and then you render
a web texture on top of that using the
web as also an opacity map so that it's
see-through in the places that the
spider web is black where the spider web
is white it's a fake okay the web even
though it's a cloth that's being
simulated over something you're only
seeing the web pattern and you're seeing
through everything that is not the web
so it looks like there's just a spider
web draped over Jake whereas in reality
it's a blanket what I did was I
simulated the blanket said I had gravity
going this way the blank is fall wrap
around him then I turn off gravity I
turn up the wind turbulence a little bit
pin the blankets to the wall and plate
various places around him which gets
like the little jiggly effect villain
the original footage he has like silly
string all over him and that kind of
just helps add some parts to it so you
can see the spiderweb on on off so yeah
that is a Jake on the wall I'm still
gonna put things like blurring on it to
match it to the shot and the blurring
just kind of crushes the detail the
extra high detail you get from the
render basically the more crisp your 3d
render looks the less realistic it looks
see that's that's the thing I'm like
hyper like hyper sensitive to this stuff
right now just because I'm on edge so a
reason why I have this big fear is
because when I was a kid I lived in
Louisiana and they have what are called
banana spiders I don't know what their
actual name is but they're literally
this big to have these abdomens that are
like frickin bananas are huge and they
like to string webs between like towns
so you're walking along and all of a
sudden you have this massive spider this
big just on your face wanting to rip my
eyes out google it
[Music]
[Applause]
background that's a spider I apologize
for this intentional infliction of
emotional distress it's totally worth it
we're done with this segment I'm gonna
move on to something non spider right
urban it's easy for me when there's not
actually one there or an image of one
I'm going to focus on just making all
the project files and starting with like
making webs and stuff I'm looking
forward to doing a rope simulation I
just want to put off that spider stuff
man
cliff so freaking funny yeah like I was
saying I'm actually really excited to
start these effects where did you get
that desktop
[Music]
[Applause]
can you change that I don't want to I
want to change it so no way to save the
original rendered find thanks a lot
[Music]
having to animate the legs the shot is
literally the spider falling so what do
spiders do in their legs fall they kind
of just like dangle there and spread out
and stuff so it's like I had to actually
animate those legs
fortunately the model came with some
like really good rig controls so I was
able to really easily move the legs but
I still had to do it
[Music]
hey Carmichael I have finished all of
the effects except for this one and the
money grab shot which is just like a
cloth some rope sort of thing it's it's
not real I have learned that you guys
are all jerks I've learned that Gabe
just laughs here's the thing I'm not as
afraid of these little guys as I used to
be and by these little guys I mean
specifically this Black Widow model if
there's an actual black of it on my desk
that would be an entirely different
story a freakin crazy spider bit me I
got all those powers I just wanted I got
another ticket for to make sure so what
happened after that
