Hello everyone,
This is my first time posting here, i’ve been working on some real-time effects using Cascade and would like some feedback or critique.
For most of these i’ve not really taken performance into consideration, just been trying to make them look cool.
Thank you!
I think your reel is good! Perhaps you should explore at making more varied types of effects. Like some environmental effects and shader work. Im no pro at this but maybe show some process as well, I keep getting told that recruiters like to see how you make things, so show the textures, material network and just the general process of how you achieved the result.
Over all good presentation,
some of the smoke and fire stuff had some obvious “spritetyness” but I don’t think that is a hard to solve problem. Also agree with the above, try creating some more varied effects, and see how far you can push all of them.
The knives were pretty sweet. The fire stuff didn’t look natural, sadly.
Thank you for the advice, I’ll try to improve the fire and add more different kinds of effects. Do you guys think it’s better to put the fx breakdowns in the reel too, or in a separate place (like a blog or something)?
Put the breakdowns in the end yes.
Also that rotation rate on smoke is too obvious and breaks the looks.
Wow, that is some fantastic advice, thank you Jeremy!
I’ll be working on some more complex effects, and I’ll definitely be checking out your masterclass in the near future, those effects are super cool!
