Update for the lens flares:
Now checking the coverage of the surrounding pixels to scale & fade.
For fast blends, this GPU/Shader only solution works quite well, I would say.
Added also some lights and glow to make it more shiny ^^
Now that the trailer is out, I can say that I worked on the VFX side of FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH with a great team at Digital Domain!
Hey everyone, we've just shared a fantastic Cosmic Web Geometry Nodes effect for Blender. It is useful for creating superstructures resembling galactic filaments – that actually run super fast and are super well optimized.
Gotta hand it to Brady Johnston for sharing this crazy fast Plexus. And a major thanks to Erindale for the always incredibly helpful Discord community for fans.

So here is a movie from Paramount Pictures that was executive produced by Steven Spielberg with Stanley Tucci playing a villain and Mark Wahlberg playing a dad of a teenage girl. The movie touches on very hard emotional topics of sexual abuse and age discrimination. And Peter Jackson does a very good job... Oh... wait... it's not The ...

I stumbled upon an interesting blog today while searching for an image of the Silicon Graphics 3D cube logo. Named "Abort Retry Fail" by Bradford Morgan White, the blog's articles document computer history. I eventually wound up reading three of them.

Imagine an open source standard for real-time particle VFX editors in game engines.
It's cool that the film VFX industry has adopted open standards for scene files (USD), materials (Material X), and even visual effects plugins (OpenFX).
I'm daydreaming about an open source PopcornFX I think. It'd be cool to integrate Houdini and JangaFX for real-time fluid sim support.
I don't want to learn the quirks of an editor every time I switch engines too.

There are more than one crash in Moria's Race. But the most exiting ones happen during the race of the movie. And because this kind of thing was hard for me when I was starting out with Blender, I suppose it will not be a terrible idea to write about how I did it.

I was frankly scared to re-experience the original James Cameron picture Avatar after knowing for certain that it is much worse, technically speaking, in comparison to the second film in the franchise. Yet I was confident that the film at the very least should be good. So I took my worries aside and watched it again. Does it hold up? Well let's talk about it.

There is no budget to this film. Yet with all the limitation, Dilman Dila makes a gripping, suspenseful, sci-fi story that would not be too far from the works of somebody like David Cronenberg, if Cronenberg didn't have money.
