Master Plan Animation questions ?

[Sketchrender]

Good Afternoon all

I have a job coming up , a master plan to be animated .

That is to say large green area and buildings growing or fading in and colour changes ansd roads and trees and trains and people.

 

Has anybody got any advise on this type of animation.

I am using Max and Vray and Brutre Force to stop flickering?

 

Are there any plugins worth looking at or should I do it all Key frame ?

 

Examples would be great too.

 

Thank you for your time.

My advice, and I say that humbly, is if you are not experienced with this type of animation hire someone who is or don't take it on, it always end up badly if the client requirments exceeds your expertise.

Thank you , but trust me when I say nobody will do this for the fee I am getting.

It is a simple block animation , its the final putting it togther in after effects i am rusty on.

But thank you for your advise.

My advice would be to design your workflow to have all your rendering done early and do as much in post as you can. Post is realtime and will maximise your time usage. Your first port of call should be to storyboard the whole thing out. This will give you all your timings and allow you to only build and render what is absolutely necessary.

Thats exactly what i am waiting for from the architect.

I have it worked out what i need to do.

Tell me do you know of any plugins that are used for falling objects to on site at a correct timing .

There was a post about the uniform one a while back.

 

Thank you .

Not exactly sure what you mean but if you are a subscription user then the physx pack that comes with that is good.
