2D Tracking with RotoBezier

10 months ago

by Bernhard Millauer in Blender 3D

This was entirely done with Blender 3D.

Addons:
.) 2D Tracking (Tomato Branch)
.) RotoBezier

The free Footage comes from hollywoodcamerawork.us

The whole process lasts ~4 hours:
(30 min 2d tracking, 15 min compositing, the remaining time: first time ever roto scoping^^)
for the first time i think i was realy fast

i can provide the .blend file if someone want it.

360° Panorama Rendering

1 year ago

by Bernhard Millauer in Blender 3D

I was searching for a way to create a panorama shot but just found some wired information’s about PartX properties.
Then i came to a post where it was described how it works with blender 2.5.

Update: Thanks to Artorp to helping me to understand my mistake – it is NOT a 360° render because blender cannot do this.
But now i have more accurate settings for a better render this way.

The setup is now fairly easy:

place the camera with horizontal alignment between the objects
set the focal length to 5.050mm
enable the panorama option

Next we have to setup the render options:

In the performance tab extend the Tiles X and Y to 360 and 180.
(This will increase the render time but reduces the count of artifacts)

With these settings, you get a result like this:

Happy blending

Export Blender Models to Shapeways

1 year ago

by Bernhard Millauer in Blender 3D

Here is the way how i get my model compatible for ShapeWays.
Please check the FAQ and other pages on ShapeWays if you have questions that are not fit into this todo.

here is the list:

create your 3d model
convert all curves to meshes and apply all modifiers
join all parts of the model together into a single mesh
check that the model do not have any floating parts if you do not want them
check the model for “non manifold” parts (edit mode – deselect all -> select -> non manifold) => tutorial
* unwrap the model
* put the texture on the same directory level as the blend file
* set the texture to the model
enable units under scene -> units in Blender
set the dimensions of your model with the help of the units (eg. 12cm)
IMPORTANT: apply the scale to the model (ctrl-a -> scale)
export to collada (*.dae)
open the exported model with MeshLab (free)
save the model without any modifications as VRML (*.wrl) file
* pack the VRML file and the texture (same directory level!) into a zip file and upload it to ShapeWays
-or- upload only the VRML file to ShapeWays
