The truck was on the right side of the road!

[crashdustin]

@joevictor53

Actually the truck was in the path of the oncoming vehicle (and it was in the wrong lane)..

[joevictor53]

@crashdustin No it was on the right side. The way we drive in the UK. It's the rest of the world that's wrong!

[munabsb]

This is much simpler if you do it in Maya Live because its an still image. But I'd really appreciate its dynamics, particle and animation.

[forgotten6495]

what about when they get out and kik each others ass

[josephbutch]

it was the green car's fault..!

[emokid0042]

how can i make sompthing like that?

[Ibrica123]

crashdustin,I need help to explain me how to work with this program it's really important for me... Or if u have msn on mail to I contact you.

Tnx

[FlamerockRockin]

How did you make this video!? Its soo cool! Tell me and I will subscribe... I give it 5 stars too... :D

[crashdustin]

It's a combination of animation, a real photo and particle effects.

Thanks

[goranification]

nice!

[GeneralAnimator]

very cool, I like how both of the cars tries to move to the side to not crash then crashes :P

[ticonderogablack]

very nicely done, kudos

[Skyler827]

This looks real.

[Garais75]

Cool!!!

[CiviC092]

the guy in the blue must have been drunk

[Viscosity86]

That was great!

[ptkborat]

good efects,congratulations!

[23Colt23]

if the cars haven't stoped just like that, i swear to god i would have thought that was real

[omgfocker]

ya the crash was pretty good but the way the cars and other parts stopped was a little too quick

[crashdustin]

It was an early attempt. Check out out other examples.

[guliasas02]

i wish to have this program... dont know where to dwnload. And GOOGLE gives me crap.

[uzilolrofel]

very niche it is very real

[crashdustin]

Check out my other video using camera matching.

[Zblj1987]

GTA 4 for life :D

Very good!

[Darind99]

at first time i thought it was true..... very, very nice

[nervousneuron]

That's what you get for driving in the wrong lane.

[marcipanis]

its so cooll! good craash! :P

[PatJH7]

this is reeeaaallly cool

[crashdustin]

A professor from Berkley Law has asked to use some of our aniamtions in his classes as well as in seminars to judges. His reasoning is "they are some of the best I have seen".

[nefe]

how do you get the cars to look so real?

[crashdustin]

It is the lighting technique used on the vehicles, combined with texturing. Thanks for looking.

Be sure to checkout our other examples on our website.

[nefe]

but you didnt use reflections yet the cars look decent.

and ps how did you match the camera in 3ds to the real camera? just by eye or did you use something as a guide

[crashdustin]

Thanks,

We matched the camera with a combination of measurements and visual alignment

[LucUltra]

Wow looks very realistic, except for the car suddenly standing still instead of just rolling to a stop.

[RenderGee]

nice nice

[dannykid28]

if its a real car crash that happened , the green car over corrected if he didnt swerve to avoid the truck that wouldnt have happened.

[drunkoldman93]

it does look real i'll give it that... On the downside, the cars didn't stop too smoothly.

4/5

[MannDexx]

Nice!

[poornation]

Perfect Except you need to stop the cars more smoother.

[platypuser]
