@KTKomedy2813 I'm not entirely sure where the arks were made originally. I know that we had full-time modelers, texturers, and shader-writers that did heavy work on the arks for the water sequences.

@jonnywow

Considering that you worked at Scanline for this movie, did Imageworks transfer the Arks to [hy*drau"lx] and Scanline for shots that were assigned highly to either company?

[jonnywow]

@potasiu2 just saw this video, sorry if the comment is late. I worked at Scanline for the entirety of the 2012 project as their render wrangler. I built a lot of the hardware he's talking about. His figures are not exaggerated.

[DigitalMovieEffects]

Scanline is very good!

What I like about this is they are not just doing ray tracing to render the graphics and control everything like a string puppet. They are actually letting the scene play out itself using physics simulation such as fluid dynamics simulation. This creates those realistic tsunami we see. IMO, its more efficient than ever, you just put the toys in and the computer do the rest.

10-15 beautypases to go ))

[potasiu2]

I know exactly how the effects for the Ten Commandments were made. I was being sarcastic. Why am I supposed to be impressed by these figures? Does it make the movie better? No. Others did it 50 years ago without any computers and much better giving it the half century time-span between the two. That was my point.
