Ever wondered what it takes to create a #Starship launch animation from Pad 39A? Over 2 years of: modeling, simulating large-scale smoke plumes, compositing, refining, and solving complex software and hardware challenges behind every frame. Deconstructed layer by layer in a full VFX breakdown of the #Starship launch animation. #SpaceX #Starship #Pad39A
There’s a lot of talk in this community... Here’s the difference: I actually build. - WIP PREVIEW! - Of my Pad39A Starship launch animation 🚀 Still refining (smoke, lighting, compositing) — and the final version will include sound effects and music to bring it fully to life. #SpaceX #Starship #Pad39A

I can use new tech to update my models as I just dont have the time for modeling things manually.

I have been experimenting with AI assisted VFX work, and it produced some insane results. I do have some shots on my SSD ready but I am not sharing them for obvious reasons. People are not ready for AI assisted VFX work.

It's fascinating how much energy some people are willing to invest in arguments with complete strangers online. They'll criticize your methods, question your decisions, and sometimes even make assumptions about you as a person. Yet when you share something you've genuinely worked hard on, those same people often have nothing positive to contribute. I've noticed this repeatedly with my 3D work, including renders I've created entirely myself. Of course, nobody owes anyone a compliment. But I do think there's something worth reflecting on when people are consistently more willing to criticize than to appreciate. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if I simply stopped sharing my work for months, or even years. Perhaps some people wouldn't care. Others might eventually notice. But maybe the most interesting question isn't whether people would miss my work. It's whether they'd ever realize how much time they spent criticizing something they could have simply enjoyed.

I always hated camera matching. Luckily, AI can do it already with such precision, that I could actually model everything I want. Lol.

Some people are something else... It's genuinely fascinating how some people can be so incredibly confident in their own abilities that they start treating personal opinions as objective facts. Criticizing someone else's work is easy. Claiming to do everything much better is even easier. But creating something and immediately declaring it better than everyone else's work? That's a whole different level of self-confidence. And when that confidence gets questioned, suddenly the discussion becomes about semantics rather than the original claims. There's a difference between having confidence and constantly needing to prove superiority. A little humility and self-awareness can go a long way.
Can be done for free in a single day if you got it in you but I don't expect everyone to have the skills for that. Commissions would still be cheaper than that "animation" though.

I was able to re-create the newest @Tesla's kickflip video of their newest roadster in 3D. The entire animation AND the roadster model was completely made by AI (Opus 5.5).
