Sexy girl attacked in swamp....

Ok...so, it's not quite quicksand, but this was a little something I threw together in about a couple hours with a really cool 3D modeling/animation program called "iClone 4 PRO". Sound effects were pulled off the 'net. I wanted to find a good monster sound, but figured the silent approach was best. I hope you enjoy.

Wow...did it suck THAT bad?

[kham]

Hmm not bad at all

[hootersfiend]

Whew....thanks...I was getting worried that my first movie submission kinda bombed...save for all the downloads it got...

I really liked it! Nice struggling for sure! Looking forward to any future releases.

Cool. I'm curious to know if the characters used by this system can be made to resemble specific, real people. Obviously I don't mean photographically resemble, but enough to be recognizable.

Thanks, everybody. I'm glad you liked it.

Fred, yes, you can actually facemap photos of anyone and make the characters resemble them pretty well. It makes for some very realistic looking characters, at least in the face. If you wanted to put your friends in a cool sci-fi movie, but didn't have the budget for set construction, props, costumes, etc...this is a great program to use.

Sometimes, when I know that the project I'm creating is going to tax my computer power, I will create virtual blue or green stages, and composite the backgrounds later with Magix Movie Edit Pro 15.

The best photo to have of a person is a straight-on facial photo, with a fairly neutral emotive look (either plain-faced, or poker-faced)...that way you can manipulate the "character's" facial expressions more accurately. A smiling photograph is much more difficult to turn into an angry or scared expression in the program.

I will say that I based this character model on a celebrity chick.

And yes, there will be more.
