Adding life
A little collection of animations I've been doing recently to try different ways to add life to otherwise static scenes/animations.
Let me know what parts you want me to break down in separate videos :-)

So I did not actually record all of this video since I was just adding models from the model bank which is nothing groundbreaking. During the non-recorded time, nothing was made to the lighting or tonemapping.
Still, if you think there’s something I didn’t explain well enough, please giv...
"Furniture advert animation" pt. 2
Probably the most boring and pointless video of all times, but I've been asked not to cut the boring things out so I won't. You'd probably want to scroll past most parts of this video :-)
New videos are rendering ATM!

ANIMATIC.
This is the result after today's recording. This is an Animatic, so it's the very first test, the cheezy music ain't gonna be there, and I instantly realized some timing and animation issues. The fire will be replaced etc. Lot of more work to do.
The recording comes up tomorrow!

Recording right now: I'm breaking this commercial scene down for you and continuing to work on the project. Animating a fire in a fireplace, animating camera dollys, doing animatics and making final animation.
See a short test animation of the fire here:
Villa Olausson (2hr project)
Please note that it's very roughly edited so there might be RT loadings etc that is not cut out, just scrub through those. :-)

Hey.
The video of this image is coming up in a few minutes. In the package below you will find the post production file. I did the post in Affinity so if you don't have affinity you won't be able to open it, but for you I took a print screen of the layer setup so you can still get a f...

Hey guys! Just want to inform you that, since I'm in the middle of a tender right now, it'll take a couple more days until the next update. This tender is due October 9.
After that I have at least 3 videos coming:
1. Quick interior from scratch (recorded already)

... for a thing I'm working on. Won't say much about it now, but I'll keep you guys updated through this little journey of mine while I keep quite about it elsewhere.
Tomorrow I'm meeting up with an art director friend with who I will do some storyboarding and planning.
Fabric + Ornatrix hair
Got a few questions about this sofa and throw on Facebook, so might as well record the setting up of the shaders and hair.
Actually super simple!

Since I got a question about this scene setup, I made a quickie about it! No ground breaking news in it tho :-)

One thing I want you to take with you from this video, is how the details we often neglect makes a big difference for the image.
The details that are so boring to do, but when you do them you realize how fast it went, so fast there's no reason NOT to do them.

Again sorry for the bad sound. I had forgotten how shitty it is to record here in my concrete studio.
JoJo's thoughts on freelancing Pt. 1
Sorry for the wait guys. I figured I could do a few of these videos now when I have limited access to a computer. This video itself isn't very informative but I thought I could cover a few of these topics, like my thoughts on client relations, marketing yourself etc. Not the answers to anything real...

3D is not the real world.
Too often I see people getting totally cought up on real world physical properties in surfaces and materials, referring to scientific texts, diagrams, numbers, curves and what not, believing that if you can learn this by heart, you’ll become ...

It’s not about the lighting…
So let’s get back to topic. Why doesn’t your images look as realistic as you want it to?
I want to start with the lighting. Let’s first realize that lighting is a simple concept. Light is made up of light ray...
Becoming a better artist, part 1.
Yes, finally someone speaks out. The big mystery of how to render fantastic, photo realistic images is revealed.
Well, not really…
We’re getting questions on facebook basically every day about how we do this, how we do that, and as I stumbled upon a very funny thread in the...
"Funkis house" pt. 3 - Discontinued
Part three. Next part we'll start prepairing assets for the exterior. Not really sure what we'll do but we'll figure it out along the way.
I'll be away from home during the summer but will still be able to make videos. I'll also write some articles and stuff to upload on Patreon so I'll keep ...
"Funkis house" pt. 1 - Discontinued
So my microphone mount broke down (as everything else in my life right now) and I had to tape it onto a cardboard box. Resulted in me not being able to use my microphone windshield, so I'm sorry for the bad puffing sound the first 3-4 minutes but it got better after a while.
Will make sure to...

Quickly making an accurate floorplan could be really useful if you're going to remodel a clients' space or renovating your own home.

In this video I shoot a sample of wood planks, color correcting it using the ColorChecker Passport, and making a completely seamless wood texture and normal map.
