3D Intro for 2D shooter :D - Scifi-Meshes.com

d4rk3lf · 01-14-2008, 01:44 PM

Hi there...

I'm currently working on some animation for a new client – it's a 2D shooter. Thank heavens, we're cooperating just fine so far, and he isn't punctilious like most people are, but is mostly satisfied so far.

Now, I know you'll all upstart and complain about the design of the ships (I dislike them also), but it was explicitly demanded they should be modelled to resemble fish–organic–like appearance.

The intro is 95% finished and there are currently two same versions, but with different music template, so apart from comments on the intro, I’d like you to comment which music template is better.

YouTube - test Requiem
YouTube - test Emperor

credits please, if not the youtube ones at least what you've uploaded to SFM - it's the rules

btw what is that song in the requiem one, I hear it just about everywhere and I don't know why

Without a doubt, I like the Requiem theme far better.

I´m all for the "Emperor" version.
It´s more in sync with the animation and Clint Mansell´s "Requiem For A Dream"/"Lux Aeterna" has been done to death and then some during the last couple of years (the movie of the same name, Matrix, LotR, two out of three n00b "demo reels", ...).

Thanks a lot for the comments guys.
The client chooses Emperor version, and it's better that way in my opinion, becouse requiem, like lennier1 said, was used milion times before.
What do you think about graphic itself?

@IRML
I have read the rules, but still I don't understand what more information should I provide in the first post. Sticky rules thread said that we have to mention all objects or anything we used in our project that we are not involved in creation. Well, I model and textured and animate all stuffs in intro by myself, and I can't say "thanks to d4rk3lf for all stuffs he provide", can I?

As for the music, as far as I know the law (at least in my country), everything bellow 2 min. can be used without permision (but however, I will mention Emperor in intro, that's at least what I own them)
I realy don't wish to brake the rules, so please can you give me more precise explanation?

well it's simply the credits go on the image you upload here, like some text in the bottom corner, nothing more than that is needed
