hey thats my model!! this is really sweet, thanks so much for using it! i always wanted to see it jumping out of the water, so it's great to see that you could make it happen:)
I believe the only thing distinguishing it from a film would be some slight movement in the background, it seems a bit too still. Even some minor movement in the fog would make a ton of difference. Awesome work alltogether!
@@billy.the.maker. @kedwyd6535 a lot of what makes movies have high budgets is not only the time it takes to render but also when a project is so huge you have many different hands on the same shot and every time a shot goes wrong you have to get so much approval to add or subtract things from a shot and this can sometimes take weeks. It really depends on if you have a really good CG supervisor that has a good relationship with producers and directors and can function efficiently. Also Minus One looked incredible and won many awards including the Academy award for best visual effects, so I would 100% say that it looks better than 150-200 mil budget movies.
The reason why smoke simulations look so similar to water simulations is because from a physics/engineering perspective, they are pretty much identical. In science we refer to gases and liquids as 'fluids', because their behaviours can be modelled using the same sets of equations (Navier-stokes et al.). The only (main) difference between the two is the density and viscosity of the fluid.
@@eSKAone- You're technically right, although under large pressures there is a measurable compressibility with water. In the scope of 'solving' the equations (navier-stokes etc.), the main difference between compressible and incompressible fluids is the complexity of the equation as you're able to cancel out certain variables in an incompressible analysis.
I don't care for VFX at all but I clicked this video somewhat by accident and it's been really fun watching, super engaging and informative whilst being a straight up cool video, actually makes me kinda want to start looking at VFX
There is in fact something off with the 100 h when the water goes down. It is like there is a lack of inertia added to the fact that all the water drops seem to fall the same way
VFX Supe here. Thanks, Erik for such an excellent example of how talent & enough time = quality. I'll share it with my clients when they request that FX work be done in a day. Your 1-hour example looks like 8h of work at any studio. You are fast!!
@@mrlightwriter You need a lot of creativity merged with knowledge (hard work). You can't simply "Hard work" your brain to have such output of creativity, references can only guide you so far. Simply try comparing other VFX artist with similar resumes, you can easily see the difference and that where Talent resides. It can be in speed, innovation, etc.
@@mocapcow2933 No, what I meant was that, when many people talk about talent, it really is a amalgamation of hard word and knowledge acquired during many years.
as a kid who wants to become a vfx artist when I grow up, but am slightly put off by the working standards in that industry, thank you for showing me what's possible if I continue learning and pursue my passion :)
Sorry.. WHAT WAS THAT WHALE SHOT?? This is so incredibly good! Not gonna lie, I clicked on that video expecting that this thumbnail was clickbait. I am far far from being an expert (I only did many fluid sims for commercial use) but I would say that I have roughly 5% of the knowledge to make your 100 hour shot. Amazing work! And i expected to see the sub count at 100.000. Not under 20.000
Just checked the sub count as well. But tbh he’s worked on actual pieces of entertainment so it’s definitely not a thing where he needs recognition. He’s talented nonetheless
I don't know why this came up in my recommendations but I'm glad it did. The effort you put in the VFX simulations can be seen even in your video editing as well. It's 10/10.
Sat down to do a leetcode problem but ended up watching this instead. That simulation algo time complexity is brutal. Awesome video, I admire your skill.
The only problem with the 100 hours simulation is the transition between the water level raising from the 3d simulation and the flat sea level near the camera. It looks like adding a 'rectangle sea' to cover something. It is clearly visible when the whale hit the ocean again (11:20), the 3d simulation is completely white, and the flat sea level is completely dark.
Dude, can’t you just be a voice actor who uses Ai? That’s what I’m thinking of doing . You could outperform people who just use Ai as well as voice actors who don’t.
@Author_SoftwareDesigner I want you to think long and hard about that comment. The point of being a voice actor is using your voice. YOUR voice. You CAN do that, sure, but I raise you the question of why should I? That makes me feel talentless. I can do every voice (except female, but I am actually training to do so as a male) that AI showcased in this video on my own. Probably at a 99% copy rate. It's called training and talent. Hence it became a thing. You think Mark Hamil or Dee Bradley Baker use A.I? No. And look at the power of their voice. That is something this A.I program removes any need for. No nee dfor talent, training or even a human and THAT makes me feel sad. I've worked hard to maintain my vocal range, and along comes a robot to do it for you. Not perfectly, but everybody will just use that to pay an actual human wishing to eat food and make a lil money by using what I've been given in life. And that is a talent to sing, voice and act. Two of which A.I now do for people and they'd rather do that because humans have lost the ability to want to be social in this cruel and digitally revolving world. So, respectfully. I could. But hell no. To quote I am enough in my own voice to not need A.I.
Then if you're serious about your VA then you should get into AI tools as well. I've seen what a good VA can do with AI enhancement and results are absolutely amazing already. AI on it's own, without solid VA still is inferior but VA + AI enhancement is definitely the way it will be done in near future.
It's interesting to see that computational fluid dynamics/mechanics used for the most advanced mechanical engineering is also used for VFX. Navier and Stokes really knew what they were doing.
Praying you make a course on this, I've been tossing up moving into Houdini/VFX after finishing a degree in 3D design/animation and this is definitely the tipping point. Amazing work!
Corridor Crew don't hold a candle to this guy. If you're talking about Corridor Crew mentioning this work in one of their videos, them I definitely agree with you.
Not only the video content is interesting, but the HUGE amount of work you did is... Just WOW! Not only did you spend 111 hours with the cgi, but you also took the time and effort to go outside, film the explanation scenes, film the funny "documentary" thing, and then edit the whole video. Props dude, you've got yourself a new subscriber.
Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to get into VFX. But seeing how long it takes even in today's technology to render just a 10 second video, it's discouraging. Props to all the men and women that are into this stuff and turned it into a professional field. The amount of patience you guys must have is insurmountable. I hope you're getting paid well.
the 100 hour was stunning, the only issue I noticed was the camera work with the nodding, but can't blame you, your a vfx artist not a photographer :p. oh yeah and I wanna learn vfx after this lol, so satisfying to see the finished product after the time you put in.
It's simply astonishing that you can do this at home, with a proper set of skills of course. 25y ago I worked at TV station which was one of the first one in Europe equipped with non-linear editing station. In today's standards it was extremely simple, SD only, simple dissolve needed rendering and it cost in hundreds of thousand of dollars. And here you have young talented visual graphic designer who can create a whole movie at home. Well done.
OMG! I just discovered your channel on TH-cam. Your explanations, style and comparisons of 1 minute, 1 hour and 100 hours are a superb learning progression for the viewer to understand appreciate the work VFX artists go through. Top notch video, editing and presentation -- also like your humour.... 🙂
Dude! That was UNBELIEVABLE, literally... I am in shock bro... I mean that seems impossible you did this all by yourself... Kudos to you man, super talented ❤
I had to laugh (not obnoxiously) when you said _"This will take a whole HOUR to render"_ . Back in 1997 I was using Autodesk 3D Studio V.3 on Ms-DOS and I modelled a minigun with 100% reflective materials rotating horizontally. I set it to 'Render animation' and went camping for 2 weeks with my cousin. When I got back there was approx 30 mins render time to go HAHAHAHAHAH. In all honesty I was AMAZED my comp didn't melt or my dad turned the comp off. Pentium 75s FTW MAN! :D They don't build 'em like that anymore.
I know nothing about VFX and will not pursue any more knowledge than I currently have but this video was beyond entertaining. Amazing job, 1TB of claps 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I've never actually watched full on vfx discussions like this so i was hesitant at first but,... damn, the way you brought to audience to the topic, AND kept them on track was so GOOD!
Amazing work ! To me this video has perfect length, delivery and humor. Also, just enough technical info to be interesting without overwhelming a casual viewer ! Much respect !
Absolutely phenomenal work, not just with the VFX but the video itself. Very expressive, entertaining, and informative! Especially as someone who knows dirt about VFX. Subbing for more, keep up the great work!
This is the first time i have seen a vfx video from start to end. Honestly videos editing was also great and about vfx, U killed it mate! Loved this video. U deserve alot of recognition for the work u do. Stay blessed homie !
I'm not a VFX artist, nor really have too much interest getting into myself, but I love watching your videos. Really well done and I can't wait to see more of your work.
Thats what good content feels like! Professional VFX Guy making Cool Content! Nothing like it man, just keep going , and if posisble please bring in more comping tutorials like how you intergrating from houdini to nuke! Good luck for future vids! Am subscribed already
Got this video randomly, saw how much effort you put into it and how high quality the content is and subscribed. Keep up this work and you'll keep growing forever!
I can tell this channel is going to blow up. I rarely comment on videos, but your work is amazing I simply had to. Your talent and skills are unbelievable. That whale shot is one of the most beautiful scenes I’ve seen
This is the first video of yours that I saw just because it was recommended to me and I'm not really into VFX but I thoroughly enjoyed your creativity in filming and creating THIS video. My favorite part is probably the Attenborough-ish narration of you, hahaha!
Incredible work! great explainer details while also creating great details. I mean you didn't have to go out into several beatiful locations for talking head sequences, but you did! You have clearly spent some time in Houdini compositing workflows!
That is a truly magnificent work! Both animation and video. I watch the whole thing without skipping a second. Great narrative and edit. I really hope to be able to animate like you, sir! Thank you!
my jaw dropped at 100 hours work... i mean everything looks perfect. the only thing i noticed is that the water waves made by the tulkun go to left and right, but they dont come trought the camera which tho is something u notice after a few times watching it so amazing job.
I’m not really interested in VFX got this as a recommended but WOW DUDE that’s some incredible work and you seem so young you have a bright future ahead of you man. You smashed it.
I'm just starting to study Houdini and seeing this work is absolutely awe-inspiring! I really respect you! Can you tell me how long it's been since you studied Houdini and how you studied it? I'm Korean, but there are few Houdini data in Korea.
bro. just a quick glaze: you not only mastered VFX artistry but also content creation and editing for long form TH-cam. Both of these skills take YEARS to develop. This is an insane amount of work that i could not even comprehend. I would love to see a BTS process for coming up with ideas, scripting, doing the actual VFX, the editing, and who is on your team or if you do it all yourself. Thanks bro! Can't wait until you hit 50M followers in couple years!
Just came across this video and man your production quality and skills are off the charts! Those forest shots looked amazing! I wish I lived there! Subscribed!

I'm not a VFX artist, nor really have too much interest getting into myself, but I love watching your videos. Really well done and I can't wait to see more of your work.
That truly means the world!! So happy you like it🙏🏼
Thats what good content feels like! Professional VFX Guy making Cool Content! Nothing like it man, just keep going , and if posisble please bring in more comping tutorials like how you intergrating from houdini to nuke! Good luck for future vids! Am subscribed already
Ah cheers buddy!! It really means a lot :)
Got this video randomly, saw how much effort you put into it and how high quality the content is and subscribed. Keep up this work and you'll keep growing forever!
Thanks so much for the kind words🙏🏼
I can tell this channel is going to blow up. I rarely comment on videos, but your work is amazing I simply had to. Your talent and skills are unbelievable. That whale shot is one of the most beautiful scenes I’ve seen
You are too kind!! Thank you so so much! Your support means a lot :)
Ridiculously good. With quality this high the only thing missing is more turbulence/waves in the larger body of water.
So happy you like it!!
This is the first video of yours that I saw just because it was recommended to me and I'm not really into VFX but I thoroughly enjoyed your creativity in filming and creating THIS video. My favorite part is probably the Attenborough-ish narration of you, hahaha!
Incredible work! great explainer details while also creating great details. I mean you didn't have to go out into several beatiful locations for talking head sequences, but you did! You have clearly spent some time in Houdini compositing workflows!
It means a lot that you recognize my work! Thank you :)
That is a truly magnificent work! Both animation and video. I watch the whole thing without skipping a second. Great narrative and edit. I really hope to be able to animate like you, sir! Thank you!
That really means so so much! Thank you🙏🏼🙏🏼🤍
I was thoroughly impressed with the end result. Amazing work!
Thank you!!
You're amazing man !! The last one looks straight out of Avatar, you're motivating me to try vfx now !!
Too kind, thank you!! And you should give it a try - it's so much fun!! It changed my life tbh
@@erikdoesvfx I will! Do you recommend starting with blender? And are there any good lessons I could learn from on youtube or anywhere else?😭😭
I am not into this VFX thing but I enjoyed watching this! :)
Aw that's so fun to hear! Thank you
my jaw dropped at 100 hours work... i mean everything looks perfect. the only thing i noticed is that the water waves made by the tulkun go to left and right, but they dont come trought the camera which tho is something u notice after a few times watching it so amazing job.
Amazing work man!! Love seeing the behind the scenes work on this stuff.
Ah so happy you do! I'll make sure to include more of it in the future :D
Man, you nailed it. That's amazing, the final result looks like a high budget movie😮😮😮😮😮
You're too kind!! Thank you🙏🏼
I’m not really interested in VFX got this as a recommended but WOW DUDE that’s some incredible work and you seem so young you have a bright future ahead of you man. You smashed it.
this is real talent, I couldn't imagine how much time it took to learn this kind of skill, great job.
Commenting for the algorithm because this was incredible, and more people should view it!
Aw you're too kind Sarah🙏🏼 thank you:)
First time watching one of your videos and I have to say, it's crazy how good they are!
So happy you like it! Feel free to stick around for the next one ;)
I'm just starting to study Houdini and seeing this work is absolutely awe-inspiring! I really respect you! Can you tell me how long it's been since you studied Houdini and how you studied it? I'm Korean, but there are few Houdini data in Korea.
Aw thank you! I've studied it for lots of years!! It takes patience but it's so fun!
I can't believe you don't have a million subscribers, your work and skills are amazing! Hope you hit a million very soon!
Thank you! Your support means the world :)
Bro nice video i thought you had millions of subscribers. You totally deserve more recognition. Keep up the good work!
Hopefully one day! Thank you bro :)
bro. just a quick glaze: you not only mastered VFX artistry but also content creation and editing for long form TH-cam. Both of these skills take YEARS to develop. This is an insane amount of work that i could not even comprehend. I would love to see a BTS process for coming up with ideas, scripting, doing the actual VFX, the editing, and who is on your team or if you do it all yourself. Thanks bro! Can't wait until you hit 50M followers in couple years!
BRO, these words means the world to me! Thank you so much for the support!! I'll defo keep in mind to do more BTS! Again, thank you :)
Amazing final product and I loved your detailed explanation of everything! I bet your channel is going to explode soon. 💪
Thank you!! And that would definitely be cool🤭🥹
i love the way you broke everything down in easy ways to understand. great video!
Just came across this video and man your production quality and skills are off the charts! Those forest shots looked amazing! I wish I lived there! Subscribed!
Ah really appreciate it bro! You should definitely visit Norway if you get the chance! It's incredible here
Amazing work! Would love a more in-depth breakdown of the comp process of the final shot
Noted! Thank you
7:18 can't believe you put this OG song in here...that was my childhood man less goo
Eyyy gotta love the nostalgia🙏🏼🙏🏼
