3D Demo Reel 2009 High Definition - Luke Mayberry

[tmrialv]

I can model most stuffs like bottles to everything else except a human being and a car. that's what i wanna do too but it's kinda hard. With the human head modeling , i'm able to do it until i get to the back of the head then i get stuck. with the car , i start pretty well when it gets to the end , i get stuck and the model looks scary then i give up. am good at modeling any other thing. and oh i cant model aircrafts and stuffs too but mah goal is a human and cars!!that's mah dream!

[pipaCZECH]

Absolutely fantastic with great variation of themes !!!

[Nattlord]

Oooooh shit, its fucking great video. :-))) I like this :-P

[orey66]

very good showreel...but i think the start of your reel shows some mediocre work.....i must say it got REALLY GOOD towards the middle and end....especially the modelling at 1:09 is cool with the bullets going past her....and the batmobile model lookedd greatt..not sure about the animating tho....other than that it looks perfect

[tokensocialist]

All of these are amazing work but you don't have a cohesive goal on this reel. What I mean which field do you specialize in? Prospective employers are going to be wondering where they can put you. If your super great at rigging then give a few examples of rigging in action then scrap everything else.

[ixionxstudios]

@tokensocialist I'm a generalist, so yes many employees will see that as a negative. Fortunately some people are able to look past that and realise that I have pretty decent skills in a number of different areas.

[pierrrecesar]

Just amazing, I'm really curious to know how you make the background in the video with the bird, it look's just awesome! Bye !

[coolracer27]

I want to see the last rendering of the hawk flying with Nvidia 3D

[HamzaHawksKing]

You can work with a big company like Infinityward or something. Love the video

[Awsomeology404]

amazing modeling man. What did you use to model this 3DS max?

[ixionxstudios]

@Awsomeology404 Mostly Maya, bits of Max here and there.

[Ultimarox]

[HHaTeDD]

eagle scene is beautiful and i like your rigs, wish i could rig something hehe

[XxBlackEmoBloodxX]

wow. the graphics on the cars were awesome

[menatoq]

NICE BIRD AT THE END.

GOOD JOB

[ResoImages]

i like, though would assume animation to not be your strong point? i think definitely work on improving that, but you could easily get a job working on modeling etc

[ixionxstudios]

@ResoImages You're right. I'm more of a modeler than an animator. Hope to improve though!

[Tepicoelano2]

man you should really put the last two videos at the begining of the reel when you aply for a job the first 15 sec of your reel are very important i thoght you sucked at the begining but as i got the the end i saw you were better if i had to go throw a bunsh of reels i would not have goten to see your good stuff

[ixionxstudios]

@Tepicoelano2 Completely understandable! I've been criticised heavily for doing this but I was more going for the flow of the piece rather than doing it as a demo reel traditionally should be. Point taken though!

[HD3DTV]

Solid

[howlingreaper203]

your awesome

[maxbuu]

Did you used VUE?

[ixionxstudios]

@maxbuu Hi, yes, Vue was used for the scene with the eagle in it.

[picsparks]

amazing work

[SuperPoromies]

This is great. The eagle looks really good.

[bleoney]

Very good videos, congratulations ;)

[yoneverknow123]

nice work luke

[Gasmaskfreak]

i hope my demo reel comes out as amazing as this great job!!

[ArisGuru]

awesome!!

[clyros]

brilliant work mate. Love the originality.

[fulgorxd]

La verdad dejas impresionado... En especial me gusto la escena del aguila... Despues de ver el esqueleto volando no crei q quedaria tan hermoso... suerte a tu estudio...

[SarwarZahirKhan]

Your demo is pretty good, although I do things there are certains things u should remove to make it shorter ( ex. the tree,robot dog....the batmobile looks cute but needs a lot of work)

I am really impressed the way you composited the whole demo, especially the intro

[only1mitch]

the batman vehicle looks amazing, the lighting is magnificent, thats really inspired me. thanks for the vid ;)

[fearlessshotta]

hey can you tell me the specs of your computer on which u do your work?

i think i have met my 3d role model.... im 16, a little skilled, but i just lack a good pc. i really think this would give me a good idea as to what parts to buy

[ixionxstudios]

My main workstation has an Intel 3ghz quad-core CPU with 8GB of RAM. I use multiple highend nVidia video cards for working on 3 monitors & CUDA processing

For network rendering, I have 5 quad core machines at 2.6ghz. Each PC has 4GB of ram. I also have a macbook Pro for working on the move

Without this kind of setup, HD rendering would be 'difficult'. If you're just starting out you can basically work on anything. Basic modeling will be fine until you hit more intensive stuff like dynamics

[dutchboyz1]

Big time 3d Luke, we like it very much.

Good luck to you, Dutchboyz studios.

Thanks for your kind words! Appreciate it!

[atomicboy222]

hi great job

it rocks and the music fits the demo

but i was wandering which is better maya or 3d studio max

[ixionxstudios]

It's hard to say. I don't think one is really better than the other. 3D Studio is more often used in TV/Game production, whereas Maya is more dominant in the movie industry, but with each subsequent version they're getting more similar. Some things are easier in one program than the other, but I wouldn't say that one program can do anything that the other can't. Max is probably an easier learning software, but my personal choice is Maya. You'll find that your skills are useful in any 3D program.

[penguinchilli]

Great demo reel! one of the best i'v seen and such a catchy tune too. I'm just beginning to learn Maya so your works are definitely motivating me :) cheers and all the best

[ixionxstudios]

Thanks! Glad you liked it ;)

[StylerZzZ1]

awesome!!

[k0l0mbian0]

did you model all this? texture and light also?

[ixionxstudios]

There's a demo reel breakdown located in the more info section to the right which can answer all of your questions. :)

[zurielgarcia]

That was amazing.

[rutno]

what program is mainly used?

[ixionxstudios]

The vast majority of it was done in Autodesk Maya, though I do also use 3D Studio Max (depending where I'm working) and have a fair bit of experience using Vue.

The overall piece was put together in Adobe After Effects using a lot of 3D layers and a 3D camera.

[forCapone]

perfect......

[razoraustralia]

Awesome stuff dude!

[ixionxstudios]

Thanks! Appreciate the kind words.
