And obviously the last point would be than it's all open and we can do pretty 
much whatever we want with it now.


I figured, thanks for the explanation Vince. I love the Johnny Walker ad btw, 
it's one of the best moments in the Mills 2012 demo reel too.

Hi Vince,

welcome aboard!

With all the recent talk about custom feather systems being developed and 
employed at Psyop and The Mill, I was wondering if you looked at mbFeathers 
(http://feathertools.michael-buettner.com/)
before deciding to build your own system, and why you ended up investing the 
time and taking your own rout. I assume you were looking for specific features 
you could not find in,
or build upon, mbFeathers? Simply out of curiosity, I'd love to understand what 
it was you couldn't find elsewhere that justified building a feather system 
from scratch.

Cheers,

Stefan


Thank you very much Bradley.

Yes it's a full on ICE feather system.
I started to layer all the main compound from scratch at the beginning of 
Hallmark, then Dave Barosin joined a month later and help me out with few very 
helpful features and scripts.

Version 1.0 of this feather system at the end of Hallmark was really nice, but 
version 2.0 that Bradley actually worked on is absolutely amazing and pleasure 
to use!
We had a very nice time brainstorming and figure out how to improve it. Bradley 
did all the hard work, cleaning it up and build a very nice interface around it.

We are using it now for an other bird (i can't mentioned the project yet, but 
it looks great), and we are using it for other type of scattering like leaves 
for trees for exemple.
Very very useful!

I can't wait to show you the next projects using it!

And i am glad i am finally on the Softimage list
It was about time.

Thanks again Bradley!

Vince.

You are correct. :-)

This would be a good time to introduce Vince Baertsoen, VFX Supe here at The 
Mill in NYC. He's the bearded fellow who appears at 1:25 in the video, and I 
believe the main architect behind the feather system, along with David Barosin.

I've been working with Vince since the beginning of the year, a super nice 
fellow who really should be more visible in the community, especially 
considering The Mill here in NY are using ICE like crazy and are on the prowl 
for talent.

Hi Stefan,

Thats a very good question.
I did look at it, it's a very nice plugin. I really like the collisions and how 
fast it is.
But i wasn't satisfied with the grooming tools and distribution.

Beside this, i had already a scattering tools from a previous job i did(trees 
setup) which had good elements for a feather system.

Wow thats insane!  I imagine great for one or a few feathers but I can't
see translating that onto a bird with thousands of feathers right?

This is great...nice work gang.  I'm doing a simple feather setup with
ice...and its not as easy as I thought..suggestions welcome :-)  Hard part
is getting them to point in the right direction.  Getting that nice bend in
one direction without feathers on the side bending back but on their edge
or something.

This would be a good time to introduce Vince Baertsoen, VFX Supe here at The 
Mill in NYC. He's the bearded fellow who appears at 1:25 in the video, and I 
believe the main architect behind the feather system, along with David Barosin.

I've been working with Vince since the beginning of the year, a super nice 
fellow who really should be more visible in the community, especially 
considering The Mill here in NY are using ICE like crazy and are on the prowl

Re: Ice feathers..

2012-06-14 Thread Bradley Gabe
Thanks Vince!

Folks should know he's been an XSI and ICE afficionado for a long time now,
just not as visible in the community because he's dealing with numerous
internal issues and mailing lists at The Mill.

Actually, there are quite a few such fellows here at The Mill. It's ironic,
I think. Once your internal user base gets large enough and skilled enough,
the community presence ends up shrinking since you can turn to your
coworkers for advice and assistance.

Re: Ice feathers..

2012-06-14 Thread Javier Vega
Welcome Vince. I love that ICE's feather system. Some months ago I tried a 
system for feather too but the results was so slow. Anyway only was a test, but 
now Im curious to tried again.

Thanks!

RE: Ice feathers..

2012-06-14 Thread Vince Baertsoen
Thank you very much Bradley.

Yes it's a full on ICE feather system.
I started to layer all the main compound from scratch at the beginning of 
Hallmark, then Dave Barosin joined a month later and help me out with few very 
helpful features and scripts.

Version 1.0 of this feather system at the end of Hallmark was really nice, but 
version 2.0 that Bradley actually worked on is absolutely amazing and pleasure 
to use!
We had a very nice time brainstorming and figure out how to improve it. Bradley 
did all the hard work, cleaning it up and build a very nice interface around it.

We are using it now for an other bird (i can't mentioned the project yet, but 
it looks great), and we are using it for other type of scattering like leaves 
for trees for exemple.
Very very useful!

I can't wait to show you the next projects using it!

And i am glad i am finally on the Softimage list
It was about time.

Thanks again Bradley!

Vince.

You are correct. :-)

This would be a good time to introduce Vince Baertsoen, VFX Supe here at The 
Mill in NYC. He's the bearded fellow who appears at 1:25 in the video, and I 
believe the main architect behind the feather system, along with David Barosin.

I've been working with Vince since the beginning of the year, a super nice 
fellow who really should be more visible in the community, especially 
considering The Mill here in NY are using ICE like crazy and are on the prowl 
for talent.

I actually met Vince last year at Siggraph. Very mystical man.
Disappeared early from the Softimage dinner and the only trace of him was a
pile of business cards  :)
