How the Hereos Teleport Should Look......

Something that always bothered me about Hiro's teleport, was that the effect was just a basic opacity adjustment, and it didn't look good. So, I wanted to see if it looked better with a Jumper/Nightcrawler teleport, and to no suprise, it does.

The edits are at the very beginning and end, also i had to loop the entire right side of the footage at the beginning, and mask out Hiro, in order to make the teleport quicker.

what movie is this?

[effectsfreak]

it's not a movie. it the show "heroes".

nice job. what did u use for the effect. looks like a small smoke effect, or like a vapor. the original looks like opacity changes. maybe they didnt want it to be like nightcrawler or jumper.

first of all, jumper came out way after this was already made, second for the second teleport i did use a small mist effect after using a displacement map.

cont. if you take a pieve of paper make two dots on either side and fold it then both dots are touching. as for hiro the oaper is space and the two dots are tokyo and new york. so really hiro is bring the area he wants to go to right to the spot he is standing in.

guys hiros isnt really teleporting hes folding space. jumper and nightcrawler dematerialize. those two should have have a cool effect as their cells are actually dissappearing and reappearing. As for hiro he is only folding space. for example if

its pretty cool, but heroes effects are pretty much at the top of awesomeness

@AndrewTheShort You said "I'm sorry but I think it sucks, they version is more real, then your "wave" thing. But still nice job"

I was saying that the whole situation is totally realistic. It seams like they would go more for style than realism in a superhero show.

@TheFXGuy What are you talking about ?! O.o I think you missed a comment..

[TheFXGuy]

@AndrewTheShort Oh yeah, because an asian that can freeze time and teleport stabbing a dude that can steal other people's superpowers to save a dude that is about to explode like a nuke is totally realistic. Good call on that.
