The Witcher - What to wear (Poll)

Hi everybody! 

Work on the animation has begun and there is very little time left before the rendering of the first shots, so it's time to decide on Ciri's clothes. 

And yes, she will be dressed for a while! Help me!))

The Witcher - Ciri

When you can't decide on the choice of clothes and wear all the best at once...

PS: It's just a T-pose in viewport, so dont worry about the full work)

News update - December 2022

Happy winter to everyone! I want to tell you about what's been going on for the last couple of weeks.

1. I'll start with the main announcement: I started working on a scene with Ciri!🥳 But until it came to animation, I'm currently working on improving the succubus model: physics, textures, etc., as I plan to make high quality work and it definitely should be more cinematic!

2. I have improved my skills in compositing, that will help a lot!)

3. Jinx projec...

RE project - Full Animation (80 sec)

Hello! There won't be a lot of unnecessary words, just watch it and tell me what you think! =)

A bit later I'll tell you about the difficulties of the work) 

Sreenshot set (11 images)

Hello there!

To brighten up the time, here are some screenshots from the Jill's animation=) I'm almost at the finish line!

What do you think?🤗

News update

News time!

Now the last WIP work is available for all tiers!

At the moment, the next 20 seconds are ready and 20 in process. So soon I will be able to present you the full animation!

RE project - WIP #2 (Animation 34s) - All tiers!

Hi! I'm still here and finally finished working with the first long shot. 

I planned to post the work last week, but I ran into a lot difficulties with rendering and blender bugs 😟

After working on combining this scene, I got a few gray hairs, but now you can see the result! I plan to complete the full animation this month.

Hope you'll like it :)

RE project - WIP #1

As promised, a part of the 2nd project I'm working on now. It will be short, but the most spectacular is ahead) 

The quality isn't final and the sound will be refined. 

What do you think? :)

Status update-2

Of course, that's not all! 

In a week I managed to make almost 15 seconds of animation of another project! It'll take a lot of time to render it, but it will be worth it! For now, I'll share with you one frame without a location to keep a little intrigue :)

But perhaps you will guess what is it)

Status update-1

Hello everyone! I'm still here and I want to share with you the status of working on animation. A few more seconds are done and the rendering of the first shot is finished!

I had to spend time modeling and adjusting textures for the scene, but now the main thing is behind and I will only do animation ;)

Btw, the compose also takes some time, because I have to render the location and character by layers using different rendering engines..

Crystal Project - WIP #1

As I promised, the first part of the next animation. Spent a little time on physics, location and character... It will be a project for 1.5-2 minutes, but so far - this is not the final quality.

There is a lot to be done with this:

1. There is no sound and voice (in the scene she says: Is anybody home?)

2. Lightning

3. Physics

4. Smoothing

5. Soft shadows

6. Few picture enhancements)

What do you think about it? 😶

News Update

Hello everyone, it's news time! I'm currently working on a new side project. I use it as a respite from previous work, cause it took almost half a year in total and a fresh look will be needed to continue) The side project will be short (about 2 minutes). In parallel with it, I am engaged in the plot and storyboards of the Witcher project. I plan to show the first WIP part next week!

Credits animation (12s)

I decided to add a slowmo animation without titles.

Working on models and locations for the next scene. I'll share new details with you at the end of the week!

The Witcher - Ciri In Trouble - 1080p (With credits - 6m35s)

Hello there) To start a new month with something good, I upload the finished work (added credits)!

I started working on the next scene, more details coming soon)

The Witcher - Ciri In Trouble - 1080p (Full animation - 6m26s)

Finally the last shots are finished as well as finished the full animation! Over the past 6 months, I've discovered a lot of new things in directing and effects (so some parts of the video are slightly different from others, as I did various experiments, but still i tried to make the work more holistic). Now, having even more experience and ideas, that have arisen in the process, I plan to make more cinematic animation!) 

I will be glad to your comments)

Thank you all for you...

News update!

Hello everyone!! I'm at the finish line, this week I'll upload the full version of the animation (it's about 5-6 minutes, I don't know yet exactly how much it would be in the end, since I haven't edited the video yet). Tomorrow I will finish the animation of the last scene and only the rendering, compositing and video editing will remain! I'm so excited :)

Thank you all for supporting me!)

The Final scene preview (Images)

Hello! I share with you the first look at the most important moment in the animation) 

Btw, I'm almost done re-rendering the first part of the scene (first meeting) - I've changed the lighting and made some adjustments to the animation.

Full work is almost ready!!!

WIP #13 (Animation 31s) - With sound

Hi! It's been a long time since the last post! 

I've been working very hard on the final scene (I'm going to publish the WIP work this week). In the meantime, you can watch the previous scenes with sound, but still I think I'll improve them!

WIPs #9,10 (with sound)

Hello! I decided to split the animation with sound into two parts. Here is the first part with sound, but this is still not the final quality, I plan to improve it a little..

Working hard on the next part :)

Just images post

Some screenshots from recent works.

WIP #12 - Animation (18s)

Another new shot. I'm currently working on the sound, so stay tuned for next update, cause all the previous works would be more holistic

WIP #11 (All Tiers) - Animation (11s)

Hi! I am uploading the next part of the work, tomorrow I will upload another part (more dynamic). I plan to complete the full scene early next month!

I've already started working on the final and most interesting part of the animation) 

WIP #10 (All Tiers) - Animation (11s)

Hello! I'm not empty-handed, cause I finished rendering another part of animation! During this week I plan to upload several WIP works and at the end of the week I will release it with sound. We are so close)

Probably I'll finalize the final picture in the compositor..

WIP #9 (All Tiers) - Animation (17s)

Hi! As promised, I'm uploading a scene with which I experimented a little. I worked in parallel on the next shots and on the composition of this scene. So for now, the next 20 seconds are almost done!

Tell me what you think)

Small part of animation that didn't make it into the last scene. Almost done another animation part (20 seconds)! It remains to work on the physics and render.

I will upload it early next month.

Next WIP update

Hello there!

I've finished 45 seconds of next animation, but it doesn't have sound yet. It takes 2 more days to complete it! 

Gonna upload it here as soon as possible)

WIP #6

As i promised, uploading new WIP version of the next scene. There is a lot to do with it, but the most difficult thing has been done) I want to note:

1. It's not the final quality

2. Scene without physic

3. No liquid

4. No smoothing

5. There are no sounds

6. Gonna make some changes in animation

News post

First of all, about the course of the next scene. I need 3-4 days to complete the animation (it's about 17 seconds). As soon as it is completed, I will post the WIP version!

Secondly, about the plans. I want to finish the scene of Ciri and the Succubus on a high note, of course, with a spectacular shot!)). After that, I plan to create something in another universe (I already have a few ideas, I'll tell you about it later) before continuing the Witcher's story. But if you have any ideas,...

WIP #5 - Ciri finally swallow it (Animation - 30s)

New WIP animation. It's not final quality, i'm going to compose it later. We are approaching the most interesting part! Working on it :)
