The biggest one for me
is when lots of objects are whizzing past the camera at high speed - it has
trouble dealing with objects that have just gone (or are going) out of shot.
Then again if the pixels simply aren't there to process whatchya gonna do?
:)
Hi Lee,
thanks for the link to revisionFX, I had thought
ReelSmart MotionBlur
to be a lot pricier. Admittedly, I don´t even have the
$150 for the
pro version (personally would go for the AE version) currently
but
that´s a matter of time...am about to upgrade to the Adobe
Production
suite and will probably just add the plug-in to that shellout
then soon.
Can you give examples where reelsmartmotionblur didn´t
work?
Pierre Jasmin of revisionFX is an active member of the highend3D
maya
listserver, usually really responsive and open to looking at anything
that
may break or stress "his baby". I´d forward it, as I´ll try to buddy
him for
a student acount anyway - he´s probably nothing to do with sales,
thought.
(May as well result in my email being put in his spamfilter.
lol.)
Cheers
tim

I've found for most jobs ReelSmart Motion blur does a
pretty good job -
Also afford you the luxury of being able to tweak the
blur amount in post.
It's all done via the FXtree which is
nice.

help
with motionblur optimizations -
alternatives?
---I´m sorry if you get this twice, I
had used a wrong
email adress to submit, got a bounce reply, not sure
it
showed up anyway ----------------------------------
Hi
guys,
I´m running into problems in tuning the speed of
motionblur
calculations. I suspect I do something wrong.
I have a scene, 650 000
tris, xsi_ambientocclusion
piped into the ambient slot plus one pretty
large and
highly sampled arealight. Renders at roughly 1min10
with
reasonable AA (Box -1/2, 0,075 threshhold).
(768x432px)
If I
activate motionblur, shutter close at 0,5 and set
Evaluate SRT for entire
frame, Deformationblur to on,
treshhold to 0,1 and keep the steps at 1, I
get a rough
12min per frame. Quality is decent, no problems with
that.
Unfortunately, I won´t be able to use 3D motionblur with
such
a speedpenalty, because I can´t throw more machines
at it to speed up
turnaround but would have to bring pass
time down to max. 3min/frame or
10min for all (~5) passes.
I simply don´t have the time+budget to up any of
that.
So, I´m desperately looking for alternatives, any tips
you´d
bewilling to share? Stuff I could read up
on?
Cheers
tim
