So i intentionally made a shaky video with an infinix phone which a focal length of 2.

I am trying to know if i can make a stable camera solve with a handheld and to see how far i can go with a suitable camera error. Fortunately, I was successful and can fully document the processes involved in tracking a Shaky footage without trackers

With this success, I began to work on the lighting and passes. I must say i am satisfied with the light setup at the moment (critiques are welcome).
At this stage, i am not so much bothered about the sampling noise. I'd just want to get a matching light for the scene.

I will begin animation and shader building in a jiffy.

I like my new two-tiered approach to CGI nowadays. Week days for every thing Photogammetry + Comp AND weekends for Character Design + Tailoring

MD stuff ....

Most of the final clips are way too big to upload here. And for some reason a bot bans me when ever i throw in a YouTube link to the animation

Too bad. Anyways u can send me a link to my Gmail account. I would luv to see it.

p.s: it's on my signature.

Get Handbrake https://www.handbrake.fr to compress your videos down preserving their high quality even for YouTube/Vimeo. I dunno why the bots are rejecting YouTube links. I share them easily here.

Alright i will...that studio thing i mentioned might be (emphasis on might) coming via if the sponsor keeps to his promise...

Keeping my fingers and toes crossed.

It's very good i got to know of it thanks to a closed group of online instructors. I use Camtasia and TVC in addition to another app WinAVI. Hope that helps.

My renders could be as big as 2gig. Handbrake could compress it to 30mb with same quality. I used TVC in the past, there is a great reduction in quality after o compress. You can search how to use handbrake on youtube. It's easy. And handbrake is a very light software too. Goodluck

Don't worry, wetin go b, go b. Anyhow we suppose do a Nairaland collabo b4 d year ends. As for me, I'm not really looking at anyone to fund anything. Not at this stage I've reached. But if any sponsor has got a minimum N300M, then he has my attention. And dats to start with.

U rarely post ur works these days, Akin?

U rarely post ur works these days, Akin?

Hmm. 2 reasons, my job and also I need to learn a bit of cinematography, scriptwriting and no video editing. Character animation isn't enough to speak my mind. I've had to learn so much in a short while. I'm the point though right now where I could pull off a major full length animated movie with iclone. Enough of my work would be online soon. I will share something on here soon if you permit me.

This is a full length made in Nigeria animated movie. Done by freelance Nigerians animators wit iClone.

I am not making mouth, I've learnt enough to pull of a job like this with iclone with a not so big budget. And I know someone who is also capable too. A friend I met on nairaland here. Maybe you will hear about him soon. He's working on something that will wow the Nigeria entertainment industry.

Here is something I just posted.
