Hi Nick

I accidentally stumbled upon your website the other day via vimeo.com and have pretty much stayed here ever since

Your lecture on working as a freelancer has left me wanting to put my hand up and hanging my head in shame. I guess it’s high time I sorted out my website and made a demo real?

Anywho, I just thought I’d say thanks for sharing all of this wonderful content with us, especially this tutorial in particular. I’d been thinking about delving into matchmoving but this tutorial has saved me having to buy expensive software and a video camera

If you’d like to check out what I did whilst following this tutorial then see this short test animation: http://vimeo.com/14540489

All critique welcome.

Cheers Nick, amazing resource.

All the best

Glyn Davidson

Drop the extrusion into a Fracture Object like he tried in the tutorial. Then add the Rigid Body tag and MoDyn will recognize the object.

I believe other effectors will work with it too.

Nice tutorial. One tip I might add is that http://www.vreel-3d.de/plugins/PhotoMatch/links.html is your friend in complex scenes.

Hi Nick, I´m in the minute 22 of the first part, everything´s fine, but I can´t get the dark shadow that appears below the extruded text, the one on the grass, i´m projecting a beach image.
Could you help, maybe there´s some function that I have not Checked.
Thank You

Never had that happen. Have you tried baking the animation before you render?

he gorilla,

great tut!!! i’ve joined your clan since 3 weeks..! actually started with cinema after watching one of your tutorials! cheers for that!
question: ( just started not so long ago with cinema so it’s probably a easy/stupid mistake)
when i play it in the building mode, the letters drop fine.. but when i render it the letters drop different.. and makes it ugly again. do you know what i did wrong?

cheers and keep up your style!

Sounds like you may have zoomed in too far. You can’t distort the image too much or it will fall apart.
