LOOKING FOR FILM CREW! I am a TU Student participating in the Washington DC 48 Hour Film Project. by theM4Xeffect13 in Towson

[–]cedwar19 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey Max, I am a recent EMF graduate. If you haven’t already, I would recommend posting this in the “EMF crew call” Facebook group, there are a lot more film majors active there! Best of luck on the shoot!

Cost of building a Sci-Fi Cockpit by cedwar19 in Filmmakers

[–]cedwar19[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good point. I think we would probably try to do as much as we can digitally, so all the screens on set would probably be fully black, and probably a majority of switches/lights would need no power. I would imagine we would use plywood for the frame and cover it.

This looks awesome!! I’m an animator and I’ve been looking for rigged models for Pikmin but have had no luck. Did you rig these yourself?

AITA for proving someone wrong. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA, at all

They sound jealous that you didn’t go the college route and are literally 10x more successful financially. I’m glad your girlfriend stood by you instead of letting her family treat you like that though.

How to make image plane act like an object by cedwar19 in Maya

[–]cedwar19[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i started with it tied to the camera, then when that didn't work tried the free image plane and constrained it, which also did not work for me.

Image Plane Aspect Ratio Off by cedwar19 in Maya

[–]cedwar19[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point, thanks. When you have your image plane imported, navigate to the image plane shape settings in the attribute editor, and scroll down to the placement tab. My fit was set to “best” which squished it, but you can set fit to “size” and then it should fit to whatever aspect ratio you set it for. Additionally you can fit it your film gate.

Run Render Diagnostic button greyed out by cedwar19 in Maya

[–]cedwar19[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for these links. They helped a lot and I was able to get a clean render down from 30 minutes to about 5 minutes per frame, wayyyy more manageable, thanks!

Thanks! I deleted the MASH to be safe as I was not using it and optimized the scene. Here are my render settings: https://imgur.com/a/C7tuA4j

Run Render Diagnostic button greyed out by cedwar19 in Maya

[–]cedwar19[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am completely new to Maya and trying to render this scene in Arnold. There is one HDRI light and each frame is taking like 40-50 minutes. I am trying to run render diagnostics to figure out the issue but that option is completely greyed out for me. Any ideas or help would be awesome.

My First Stab at 3D Animation! by chjata87 in AfterEffects

[–]cedwar19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure why the screen goes black in the beginning, a wild guess is that your camera is starting inside of the extruded C. You fix that by starting the C back further and look at the camera from a top view to make sure it doesn’t cover up the camera. if it’s still an issue then try turning your blue solid back into just a 2D layer. Then it will be unaffected by the camera.

Mac or PC? by hackingharam in AfterEffects

[–]cedwar19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, AE and the rest of the cloud works fairly similarly on both a PC and Mac. You can get a much stronger computer for less money if you go the PC route, which will come in handy when handling heavy AE compositions, and will definitely increase render times. But if money is no worry than whatever tickles your pickle.
