Animation Scraps: Water

[daveo3000]

Beautiful :)

[Floydian75]

I like how it looks, ominous and mysterious yet it is still light and beautiful.

[flapzaq10]

[klavierGavinlover]

OOOooooooooooooo Ahhhhhhhhhhhh. 0.0 pewtty

[insanewarlock666]

water on the horizon looks strange.

[Petersonneman]

this is awesome! you really do it all, eh? very impressive. would love to have an overlay of an ocean soundtrack, it would be perfect! keep it up, good sir!

[retroron5053]

Hey Chris I love your works. When are you gonna put on some new ones? I'd appreciate if you could check out my drawings of my dead dragon story and give me some tips on making him seem a little more vicious and scary. My web site is all one word but this comment page won't let me put it in that way. So here it is. Dead Dragon Tale .com I'd love to hear from you. Thanks again keep drawing. You have so much to offer the world. Bye Now !!!" Retro Ron" 06/23/10

Anyone else can Check it out!!!!

[hellboy8677able]

i love it

can u tell me which software u used for making it

[Annoyingthing321]

I think that a very realistic way to animate is to do one of you photorealistic pics and make an animation frame by frame on photoshop! It'd take years, but it would be cool

[mykelangelo96]

nice ;)

[MrProfijt]

He did not make it entirely with Photoshop. He used LightWave for the water animation, Photoshop for sky & Rocks and After Effects for making it a piece all together into a movie.

[MishMash987]

how do u make animations with photoshop? PLEASE REPLY!

[0oConorJRoystono0]

it's like a flipbook, you create one drawing then you make a slight change to it and keep doing that, then put all the drawings as a photo and put them in a order in a program like windows movie makers or something, change the frame rate and there you go :)

[rampagerogue]

shush... its all in description...

[000Wiseman000]

@MishMash987 well you should usually go in imageready where you can make the animations and you basically do every frame of the animation a different layer when you are on a different frame make another layer and set the other layers' visibility off.That way it knows what you want on each frame its the only one that has visibility then when you are at the next frane simply make another layer and make it the only one with visibility too.

[DesertRoses]

Words don't even began to describe!! This is gorgeous!! ^__^

[Youghurt93]

[Zoltansfire]

[imsearching4it]

Absolutely amazing. I had no idea photoshop could do something like that, at least not animated.

[maga1610]

[quiksilverboy31]

My god.

That's amazing.

Wish I had a talent of some sort that's nearly as amazin as yours.

[Renadrawer]

[steffx21]

[illuminatedstar]

[endlsswing]

[diealein]

this..... this is just....... amazing, leaves me speacheless, its beauty can not be told with todays vocabulary, this is all i can say, and btw, how do you make so... realistic 3d stuff?

[TheA136]

amazing!!

[grandmasterj5]

Where are you learning how to dooo this!!!?

;)

I can illustrate, and am not too bad with photoshop, but the 3d stuff makes my head spin!

[L3thalShad0ws7]

looks like the earth after global warming.

SWEET!

[spidereine]

that is beautiful

[waterswind]

i wish my scraps looked like that :(

[pot1984]

nice !!

wat program ?

realflow ? n 3d max ?

[brodieswift]

The programs are in the description;

3D is Lightwave

Artwork is Photoshop

Compositing and editing is After Effects.

[redeyesthe20th]

very nice ;)

[ejhwrestler]

I never get tired of seeing your work, it looks like a living painting and is incredible. Hurry and create your movie! Haha

[EmberflyLayouts]

that's so pretty! I want to go there :)

[Stovepipephilia]

I'm very impressed, I have to say I'm really intrigued by the animation style. The whole idea of a moving painting is genius and to see it pulled off so well actually makes me pretty excited :)

[01pR1m3vil]

To my previous comment cgsbgs. I meant for the trolls to get a life your artwork is amazing! I don't want that to be misunderstood.

[Fizzydom]

Oh my god this is beautiful work =] !

[01pR1m3vil]

Very nice! Damn trolls. Get a life...

[eddykingfour]

Holy shit,

excellent work man!

[Kenjineering]

I love it!

And Cgsbgs, just ignore the trolls. i.e. snigglesthedetroyer

[cgsbgs]

I usually do... but I was feeling a bit snitty this morning.

[redeyesthe20th]

Haha, if you put videos on youtube, you get trolled i know the feeling it's hard not to feed to trolls!

[iammadness]

Damn the trolls. They are drama makers just to make themselves feel significant.

[brodieswift]

Very nice work. What 3D program did you use to create the ocean?

[cgsbgs]

Lightwave.

[darkula666]

nice

[reallytightpants]

Lol i love how you say scraps when this is something awesome. Its like eh fuck it i could do better and youtube is your trash can lol. But seriously you have some good work.

[FlopBlop]

oO Wow, i cant believe you actully did that! :O Its amazing! 5 stars for you (:

[snigglesthedestroyer]

i have seen this video elswhere u either stole or they did since i saw this a week ago u stoll it

[cgsbgs]

No, no, no... If you saw this elsewhere, you were seeing my work. I did this about a year ago, and it has floated around. But it would be more helpful if you are going to make a statement like that to provide the link/location where you saw such a thing. Theft is a pretty low-down insinuation on someone who works very hard as artist for a living.

[snigglesthedestroyer]

i will shut up if u show me proof that u are doin this cause there is no way to tell if u are stealing this from another sorce and taking the fame for youself like idk figure out a way make a vid that prooves you are doin this then ill stop questning your work or someone elses work....

[cgsbgs]

1.) No... It's the other way around. I prefer "innocent til proven guilty". There has to be some questionable evidence to suspect I didn't do this. Because there is an over abundance of evidence on my channel. There is actual video of me creating stuff-- whether it's just my hands on some acrylics or me in person sculpting out of cushion foam. That's enough evidence of my creative capabilities. Or how about the actual work that is published.

[cgsbgs]

The only other thing I can do is have a camera over my shoulder showing me working the 3D on the computer and then have a split screen on the vid with the other half being the digital outcome. That would be an utterly preposterous waste of time. Even more preposterous though, is wild accusations of fraud on a public forum without evidence.

[monkeytherat]

he has... many times... just saying

[HolyBlackJezus]

post where u seen it then ppl might listen.

if u have seen the quality of other stuff this guy has done you would relise that he doesnt need to steal stuff he is very talented

[ChcltChpCookieDough]

WOW

[ichbinned2]

chees your amazing man

[M0rganstudios]

Holy shit that is cool....mind if I write a piece of music based on it? I get all kinds of ideas from this.

[Clauran]

mad skillz man

[JasonDiazReptiles]

I like it, the style really sets a nice, soft, calming atmosphere.

[TheMissify]

very calm =)

[TechnoNinjato]

oh i liked this, very nice :)

[lmNotReal]

awesome!

[ImperatorDominatus]

It looked a bit more like a shifting sand dune to me than water; but very nice regardless. :)

[CSSOcelot]

yea i was thinking the same thing but maybe that's what he was going for, like a mirage in a desert.

[cgsbgs]

I suppose maybe it does... That would be the result of the fine line of knocking back the photorealism of the 3D rendering trying to make it look painterly. It was very shiny and wet, but over powered the paintings in the pic. I really plowed over it with filters to kill that software realistic computer-made look.

[TheTimeDevourer]

Chris, you are amazing! You're both my favorite 2D and 3D artist :D

[Andantonius]

Geeminy... is there anything you *can't* do? XD

[racerx11080]

[Xaragon64DS]

A picture is worth a thousand words, how many words is an animation worth? It's worth 5 stars at least!

I can't wait for tutorials!

[AmericanIdolQueen84]

OMG this is so beautiful and so relaxing you should make stuff like this, burn it to a dvd and sell it because a lot of people need help relaxing with some nice b/g music this would do it :)

[lightingrings]

[hoyun]

[UlrichVIII]

[gammainn]

I really loved this. It looks awesome!

[lucb1e]

[amychaogirl]

[crashnburn753]

You did this completely by yourself? That's very impressive.

[metalspy008]

I would hang this on my wall if I could!

[shujun280]

[UndeadComedy]

[WilliamsShamir]

- Willy

[cgsbgs]

Thanks! Your work is pretty darn fantastic and inspiring.

Someone once said we should team up on a piece together. That would really be interesting.

[WilliamsShamir]

Chris , this is an honor to get such a reply from someone like you

your work is a great inspiration !!!

to be honest i work a full time job that has nothing to do with art or creativitly and it barely leaves me any spare time

i can't post that often but i want to try really hard and post more videos ( because this is actually my only practice :( ) and also try and develop as a designer ... but once i'll have more spare time it will be an honor to team up with you on a vid !!!!!

[dragongirl2913]
