Ilja, Filip, liuyongcai and 7 others like this!

The last nine months I've worked on the feasibility of a bigger project. I wanted to know, if I could make a short film of about 10-15 minutes in duration. Well, I'm not there, YET. But I've produced lots of tests of the damage model, weapons, scenery, sets as well character design and animation. My biggest destruction scene getting there where I want it, showed me that it's possible to do this entirely in BluffTitler. Surely character animation clips and dynamics are from external sources. But the combination and further animation and rendering is fully done in BT. Getting some tweaked effects here and there might speed up this venture.

You're on your way there for sure. Well done, those explosions look fantastic.

You are the damage and destructief master.Love the timing and the particles. How did you do it?

Filip, 2 weeks ago


Fantastic work ! I join Tommy and Filip in congratulating you on the special effects as well as for the entire production. I especially like effect at 0:49. Thank you also for participating in the gallery that has been a little too quiet these last few days.

The particles and explosions look amazing!

Is it possible to apply them to text layers as well? That would make very useful templates!

Thank you all for your nice comments.

Filip and Michiel, I've posted the particle effect - now based on a dissolving text - here: outerspace-software.com...

Vincent, the effect at 0:49 is one of my favorites, too. It's the model layered three times over another. Deep down with wireframe effect, then there's one with glow and a fiery texture and above them all the standard starship texture. They are molten away with a time-shifted gradient whipe effect in two colour map layers.

Thank you, komies. You are a true believer. I've really missed your insights. 😃

If the writers and actors aren't striking again, the movie will come out before Voyager 1 or 2 will make contact with alien lifeforms, I promise. 😋
