Archived threads in /3/ - 3DCG - 6. page

I believe /3/ has one, hang around long enough and you might see the link posted.
Or dig through the archives and find it that way.
You can also always go to >>>/vg/agdg and pretend they aren't autistic.
Their discord is better than the thread itself for feedback.
Be aware they are video game development though, so they don't really cover as much as a t/3/apot.

just post the fucking link you retarded sack of shits

Confas are cancer.

Depends which side of Europe you're on. Western fruits or Eastern brutes. One pays much better than the other. You can guess which one is worse than Japan.

>>569704
That guy I talked about told me it's around 2k in Japan but have I no idea if it's true. I love 3D that's not the issue but if I get paid 2k in Japan might aswell stay comfy here in western europe.

>>569703
I'm fluent in japanese so I can work in a fully japanese environment.

>what is sampling
>what is rendering in general
jesus fucking christ.. Google some stuff man, nobody here will waste 2hours writing all the basics you need to know

They don't use Cycles. It's as simple as that.

>>577808
i know they invest tons of horsepower on these renders but something seems off to me.

its like they make the light calculations before it even starts to sample. like not using raytrace but more of like approximation

>Is it okay if I post a link to my reel here?
My guess is you can't get a job because you're too beta to post your reel on 4chan without asking for prior permission.
Jesus Christ.

i don't know much about motion graphics, but i do alot of 3D (and read/watch stuff about 3d every day)

maybe you can post your reel and i can shed some light or share some advice.

>I would like to be a sort of generalist
don't do it, bad idea. generalists do more work for less pay

Animation is tedious and in a big way derivative of the model you work with. So less fun, less people flock to it, pays more.

There's a lot less vfx artist positions than other ones as far as i can tell, so there's a premium in good performance.

Doesn't make sense seeing as every fucking film uses CGI or any sort of VFX nowdays

>>577431

You see more pants than cars too, does that necessarily mean more workhours go into pants production?

If a company makes products (3D animation) that include both work the modeling takes up a lot more wh. If its just live action movies with special effects added in they have large budgets and employ relatively small studios for special effects, so those fuckers might as well be good, since whole movie hinges on the effects not being crap and knocking you out of the immersion - premium for performance.

>>576662
you can submit stuff and cross your fingers, but they have people looking for pieces to publish that will contact you if they are interested by something you made

Do something really autistic and find a use for it.

>>576662
I'm guessing you should have a decent portfolio or reputation because they probably want to talk about something rather than to just feature some random person's work.

Hold on... they're testing you for environment modelling... AND rig/animate a character?

What the fuck? These guys are:

A). Taking the fucking piss and just going way overboard with their test in order to really put candidates through the ringer, to an unrealistic degree.

or

B). Don't know what the fuck they're doing and don't know how to commission an artist. A studio either wants an environment artist, or a character animator. Pick one.

Yeah, anon - this seems like a bullshit, unrealistic test which is set by people who have no problems wasting other people's time.

>>576077
It's definetely possible. Use adderall.

that insane, i can already tell that the managers don't really know anything about 3D.

here is what would be more reasonable

>model an environment from a reference
>shade,light,texture everything
>show proficiency in making basic shaders
>create your own textures to some extent

that's it. and that's asking too much already.
they simply aren't gonna find anyone to do this job, and if they would, that person would have too much credentials to accommodate the pay (which is probably shit, startups are like that)

>AMA

This isn't reddit

>>576194
what kind of computer do you use? What projectors can you recommend?

>>576197
i use anything with i5 core 4gb of video en 8ram minimum to run the software correctly here in my work the servers are powerfull so they can handle big video proyections, but production wise like i said minimum i use cinema 4D for 3D and resolume and madmapper for mapping.
>>576195
of course is not reddit but like its I L L E G A L to use that

>>577635
Looks pretty self explanatory to me

>>577638
It does until you realize the other side isn't identical

>>577660
How do you know it isn't, if you can't find any images of it?

>>576816
The one on the far right is HWiNFO

>>576816
2nd circle is Geoglyph 2.0, a world machine plugin. It's useful if you don't want to make your own macros or layouts.

>>576816
First one looks like keyshot

1. There is a UE4 general
2. This is /3/, not /v/

>>577547
>1. There is a UE4 general
Blueprinting is too wide a subject to be shoved in a UE4 general.
>2.
Blueprinting can be used for modeling or constructing things using already modeled (modular) assets. /v/ is not for game development. stop being retarded.

>>577549
Well then, have fun with your empty thread.

>>577447

Example of the kind of model I am looking at https://youtu.be/VDrAzeNS2pk

>>577447
Some turbosmoothed basic models composed with 8K displacement maps. That way they can animate a simple looking easy to understand model and get much more detailed renders. Check out the behind the scenes of Dark side of the moon. They pretty much tell everything.

You simply press "3d model bumblebee" button in 3dsmax.

>>577384
Yes

>>577384
I would say >100k faces perhaps 200k

>>577396
What does that mean?

>>577377
>tfw registered to cg peers years ago and found it of zero fucking value

>>577377
Same for me. Similar error, Nothing i could do. I gave up on it. But i have an account at CGpersia, so i am not entirely fucked.

Do your own fucking homework

I've saved it. I'll give it a shot next week. I think it has the potential to become the new /3/ mascot.

I'm laying down the basic shape. I'm still trying to figure out a viable topology. Unfortuately there isn't much reference material.
