2014-10-03 Thread Florian Juri
Thanks very much guys, we're glad you like the job!

Some have been scratching their heads about how we've achieved the
extrusion effect and creation of UVs, and Manny, you've cracked it already!

After a lot of RD and smoking heads we've 'settled' with the most simple
technique, which seemed to work best to achieve the effect the Director was
after, and it also turned out to be robust and fast.

For the majority of cloth elements we've used the following workflow:

After having accurately tracked characters and the camera we've:

- drawn spline curves on a static copy of the character's mesh to define
the areas the cloth should be 'emitted' from.
- we then sampled points on these curves, reinterpreted the locations on
the animated characters, and
- for every frame of a shot added strand positions, effectively creating
strand trail point clouds for the whole length of a shot, for every piece
of garment
- the strands were then converted into splines and
- lofted. So for a lot of shots we already head the UVs for free. For quite
a few shots, because of the nature of the dancers' movements we needed to
re-do the UVs though.

So we ended up with an extruded mesh (one edge loop per frame, or
subdivided if more detail was needed) which represented the dancer's
movement in 3D space over time.
Using ICE we've triggered vertices at the right time to start simulating
(using a Verlet setup) and hid/deleted all polygons 'in front' of a dancer.

For some shots to help joining characters and garment, additional pieces
were simulated using nCloth or Marvelous Designer.

That's it, nothing too fancy. :)

cheers,
Florian

I will add quality and clean renders to the speed and power.

No fireflies, unexpected noise, etc.

Besides for me it is not only about the rendering. Maybe if you have a
super render farm, you can just send the job and forget about unitl it is
done.  But when working in texturing, shading, and lighting, Redshift is a
joy to work with, and a hell of a time saver.

Re: Glasswoks Lycra

2014-10-03 Thread Simon van de Lagemaat
At the cost of a smaller fast memory pool?  From what I understand Redshift
slows down significantly when it starts using off board RAM?  I know this
is one of the main reasons many other renderers haven't gone to the GPU yet
since cards with decent amounts of memory are still priced far too high.

Since Redshift appeared, mostly I used Mental Ray since Softimage 3D 3.5

I used Maxwell, Arnold, 3Delight, Fury and I was in the beta testers of
V-ray.  But when finally Redshift came out in its Alpha stage, and I was
able to participate in the group. I knew this was the render engine I was
expecting for Softimage.

I was working in a 5 seconds lenght product shot for Kellogg's that with my
hardware resources, it would have been impossible to deliver on time with
the quality the client was expecting.

So, straight after download and installed Redshift, I gave it a try.
Straight from the beggining, I felt at home with Redshift, setup the scene
in a breeze, made a couple of tests and hit render.

The final render came out without any problem and incredibly fast without
any flickering, fireflies, noise, etc.   Since then, I am using Redshift
99%  Except for particle volumes.

Cheers!

 Besides for me it is not only about the rendering. Maybe if you have a
 super render farm, you can just send the job and forget about unitl it is
 done.  But when working in texturing, shading, and lighting, Redshift is a
 joy to work with, and a hell of a time saver.

Ditto.  total gamechanger. Redshift is literally the only thing that kept
me from closing up shop. I had priced out new multicore render nodes, and
licenses for VRay and Arnold, as well as testing Arion, Octane and more
obscure options, and the numbers just didn't make sense.  I was going to
just not be able to continue doing the type of remote work my clients
expect on the schedules they need, and make enough money for it to be worth
doing.

For example, I'm just putting 2 new render machines online - they're refurb
Dell workstations that cost $450 each, with an additional 16GB RAM, ($190
each), an auxiliary drive bay power supply ($25!) and 2 GTX 780s
($850/pair).  So each render node's hardware was about $1500, the Redshift
license is $500, and I get much better performance from each node than I
see from brand-new $10K 20-core CPU render boxes.

Octane is an un-biased GPU renderer, i wonder how it stacks

they way i understand bias and unbies

is it, that

unbias, computer goes through the whole gamut of possible calculations to
find the right result per ray traced.

Bias, you get to clamp the calculations to a more probable outcome, so the
ray calculation won't bother with everything just the specific bracket
you want to work in, which speeds up things, but sacrifices certainty in
accuracy?

is that right ?

or is that brute force ?

So SLI seems to be the most cost efficient method i.e. double the power per
physical box...  nice thing is you can probably upgrade those GPU's across
a few generations without upgrading the rest of the system since the PCI
specs don't change much and power draw tends to decrease with newer cards.

I mean, it's not cheap but I'll assume the dollar per flops ratio is way
higher.

Re: Glasswoks Lycra

1) it slows down the most when sending geometry out of core, and frankly 
even that ain't all that bad. 'Significantly' is relative here when it's 
already that fast.
2) There is currently a hard-coded 4GB cap on on-board geo cache, to try 
and balance performance in these early stages. So even if your card has 
6+, it will send geo out of core if hits 4GB. The devs have talked about 
upping this though, especially with bigger cards coming along.
3) I can't recall the exact numbers, but they're able to fit roughly 
110-120M unique triangles in 4GB, that geo being simple geo with a 
single UV mesh.
4) Biased man I'm not gonna split hairs on this. If that's a big 
deal for you it's a big deal for you. Seems like the sort of thing 
Archviz people would care about more than VFX or Animation folks. 
Redshift does have a hearty Monte-Carlo-only mode that I am partial too 
though
5) I lit and rendered all 75 of my shots on Yellowday 
http://www.timcrowson.com/yellowday/ in about 30 days on 12 multi-GPU 
boxes. The toughest shots' frame times averaged 45min/f, with most in 
the 5-15m range, and several far faster than that. The densest shots 
here used about 8-9GB total, IIRC.
6) As always, everything is relative to your business and what the needs 
of your production are. No news there.

their memory footprint is very similar to arnold. ie. cost per triangle and

With Modo we almost always ended up using brute force because the IC
methods were just far to skittish no matter how much you dialed things up.
I think since then they've implemented some hybrid approach as well.

I still think the future is bidirectional with beastly hardware dealing
with any noise but for now I'm curious to try out RS.  Seems like the raw
speed is over riding any other concerns especially on smaller jobs.

literally everything everywhere displaced at a level of less
than a pixel.. a blurry reflection scene material , many many
area lights and with a wild camera move, to make motion blurred
very dense displaced geo  all over the frame (with 1st bouce
brute force GI) , to make the most nightmareish sampling task as
possible,
and rendered a 1080p frame in 14 min (to get where noise was at
an acceptable amount) (.. and I was floored! :]
(non-tweaked to death settings took 2h)

Would have taken several -hours- if not days with anything else!

Made like a full screen of (mostly noise free) fine-fine trail
lines (under little redshift logos :] )

Yes, it's a really sweet setup. And it still only requires

We're using a mixtures of Titans, 780ti and tesla cards and
  I can only second what everyone else is saying. It's

yes that is exactly what I'm doing. 
  4 titans using all together when tweaking everything
pulling  speed from them, and then in most of cases
sending to Deadline with 4 of them each rendering 1
frame or 2 by 2.
  Really good support in Deadline for that .

Yes, there seems to be a decline at 3 cards.
  But another great thing about redshift is that you
  can render multiple tasks simultaneously so card 1
   2 render frame 1 and card 3  4 render
  frame 2, etc. this is fully supported with
  Deadline (don't know about royal render, but I
  think someone said it was supported as well).

if they are generating the data from strands then they know the start and
end, as long as they know the vertical start and end it wouldn't be very

Yes, and it can be achieved very easily using the native toolset.  Just tag 
point(s) on the surfaces to be extruded, then Animate  Plot  Curve to 
generate the curves over the sequence.  Finally, loft the generated curves to 
form the surface.  The Texture UVs come for free.
