Nvidia's got a whole SDK for character rendering that includes skin and hair neural rendering and it might be the thing that helps get the face renders out of the uncanny valley https://github.com/NVIDIA-RTX/RTXCR

It can do subsurface scattering and more realistic diffusion for enhanced reflectivity and more realistic rendering of the materials.

Left a comment on the video about RTX Skin, which is built into the SDK

Edit: Just to clear things up, I don't think the footage they showed looks bad. It looks like a game because it's being rendered in Unreal, which makes a TON of sacrifices to rendering accuracy to run in real time. It's a game engine, not blender. I'm just suggesting Nvidia's SDK because it could help refine the look further without being a massive time sink.

If it were me, I'd just lean even more into the video game aesthetic. Stylize things even more. Would only make the show look more unique and cohesive than it already does.

I think a lot of people are getting hung up on the end result without realizing how flexible this workflow lets them be. It's not JUST about saving time on setups or rendering. They can do any dynamic camera movement and lighting conditions they want. Just because the output doesn't look photorealistic today doesn't mean adopting this sort of workflow early is a waste of time or some sort of creative compromise.

Tried experimenting with pixel art, and I think it went well!!

Think a sequel is worth creating?

This one is now a year old and AI videos are even more difficult to catch now.

Looking to hear some thoughts from this community.

This is a timelapse that I recently shot, of an incoming storm.

Obviously I heavily color-graded it but I thought, man this looks like a perfect shot of an explosion without the physical hazard.

I'm wondering

... what are some other techniques I can use to get this same outcome without injuring myself?

I’m surprised the guys haven’t talked much about motion capture used in sports.

In the UK, on the BBC’s website, they have live motion capture footage for some of the World Cup games, that’s surprisingly detailed for covering 25 separate people and being done without too much of a delay. I don’t watch American sports so I don’t know if this is just a common place thing over there, but I assume this is something some stadiums have rather than something the BBC implemented.

What do you think, was the decision to have a cut on the light switch turning on. There is the VFX of the paper on the wall flying off but surely could have been made a little slicker?

You will see an object appear from the top left of the screen and move downward until it is just above the ground and then it changes direction and flies out of the lower right side of the screen. The object is clearest when there are flashes of lighting.
