My Works: TV Commercial

-
Here's a TV commercial I was involved in last year, while at VHQ. This TV commercial was for JD.com. Almost the whole of the TV Commercial team and Film team were involved.



I helped in look-development of Cyborg, especially in texturing, shader creation and lighting the asset. I was also involved in tweaking textures and shaders for Aquaman's asset.

Also, I helped in the texturing, shader and look-development of the swordfish and the car that got crashed.

For texturing, I used Mari. Rendering was done with Arnold in Maya.

This video shows how I export and import models and animation to the Alembic format (.abc). It also shows how imported Alembic files can have some flexibility in terms of offsetting animation timings, playback speed and cycling options .

Setting Maya Viewport's Texture Resolution Above 256x256

While working on a project that required me to display map features in very fine detail, I ran into the problem of Maya's limited ability to show texture maps at higher than 256x256 in the viewport. On the left is the source image supplied as a texture on the plane in the Maya scene, displayed from Window's image viewer. On the right inside of Maya is the same map that's loaded as a lower resolution map. In the hardware texturing setting for that shader (I'm using a surface shader), we soon find out that 256x256 is the highest resolution we can choose to show our texture at. Searching through the Internet I had the good fortune to come across this very useful tip on a blog that solved the problem for my situation: http://blog.erlendsakshaug.com/post/59585323349/maya-tip-set-texture-resolution-above-256x256-in-the To find out the current hardware texture resolution for the shader of this object, we have to find out the name of the shader. For me it is ...

Maya UI Layout Example

In reply to another StackOverflow question , I wrote 2 blocks of code that shows 2 UI layouts created with Maya's UI framework. First one looks like this: This is the code that created this first one. import maya . cmds as mc def buildUI (): winName = 'myWindow' winWidth = 200 # set a target width and reference this when you specify width if mc . window ( winName , exists = True ): mc . deleteUI ( winName ) mc . window ( winName , width = winWidth , title = 'Test Window' ) # i always have keep a reference to the main columnLayout mainCL = mc . columnLayout () mc . text ( label = 'text row 1' ) # tmpRowWidth controls the width of my columns in the rowLayout # with reference to winWidth tmpRowWidth = [ winWidth * 0.3 , winWidth * 0.7 ] mc . rowLayout ( numberOfColumns = 2 , columnWidth2 = tmpRowWidth ) # at this point our UI pointer is under the rowLayout mc . text ( label = 'row colu...
