Animated 2.5d Zbrush scenes

[Meats Meier]

Hello -

I just wanted to post some of the animated tests that I tried with Tarons ZbornToy plug in...using a few of my older Zbrush alpha images (z-depth).
I am planning on rendering about 150 high resolution images (of a light moving across a model) and then eventually make a hologram out of it.




Skull And Bones animation - Quicktime <4.3 megs>




Final Piece 2.5d Animation - Quicktime <12 megs>




Final Piece Two 2.5d Animation Quicktime <8 megs>


These are a few of the first tests, I've learned that you can use the plug-in to generate many many passes for different things. These are all single pass.

Very very cool meats, Id like to try out the ZbornToy at some point. Keep up the great work

Fantastic Meats.
Stunning looking animations,

I'm almost speechless, but have to say something, . .

It is slowly dawning on me that this Zborn toy has opened a new door for artists and animators.
Its an absolutely awesome achievement !

I'm looking forward to seeing just what all the great digital artists, will do with this.

Meats,

Thank you for sharing these. They look like fun. Quite effective.
Thanks for sharing them with us all.

That hologram idea sounds very cool... I want one!
Let me know if you ever do it, ok? Thanks!

I am a trueappreciator of your work.
I really dug the chrome skull and crossbones you did recently as well.

Your a true original.

The skull and bone reacts very nicely indeed to the animated light. I could watch that all night.

Yeah, slow it to a crawl so it's not too distracting and somehow make it the background for your computer desktop.

Are there problems running it with AE6.5 Taron? I tried it and it seems to work.

Skull and Crossbones = Awesome Mr Jim.

Did I mention how much I enjoyed your response to my last email, or how you came out to kick it with me in L.A.?

Yeah, those were the Salad Days.

[crossbones]

I'd have to say that is a really cool "crossbones" piece. Awesome meats! Can you show us the depth images you used.

[impaler]

The final piece looks like a crazy space invading robot... I can see an army of them taking over cities....
Looks like you are having lots of fun with Ztornboy..

[Meats Meier]

Sorry, I was away for the weekend....

Thanks! I'm having a lot of fun with the plug-in.

Mr. Monster - Cool, I will let you know if I decide to make some holograms....

Obz - Hey Jim. Yeah, I've been having trouble with my email lately.

crossbones - Here is the alpha - and the 32 bit image

I totally dig all of them! Especially the crossbones in motion of lights and the really pipey robot construction! Just incredible stuff.

You make me really proud with all of that! In fact...I'm ready to explode right now!

Just beautiful. And great to see it here!
Thank you!!!

Taron
