Production Blog: Something that was never there, CGI
In this project, I feel that it is obligated to have the use of CGI within the video because of some minor flaws that I will go into detail about. But before that, I want to explain what this blog is going to be able to do, a short little summary: I will talk about the flaws and goods of CGI use within this video, how will it help, and how will it make me cry under the table, but I will also talk about why I decided to use it overall, but also the main reason for my suspicion of this topic within our video, but also the amount of skill I possess in CGI. First of all, I am not a 12-year CGI specialist who spends most of his day looking at charts and lighting errors, I am kinda of new to it, I have the knowledge to perform CGI in a manner where it's very easy, but when It comes to actually quality and lighting, that's where it gets very hard to do. I am overall not a very funny guy when It comes to CGI, I have performed basic CGI in the past involving Barack Obama T posing, as I said I have limited skill, just because one man knows how a nuclear reactor works, doesn't mean he can put it together and manage it all at once. Breaking news I've just noticed I've said CGI too many times and I will now cry about it. To repeat, my skill is limited, because this topic itself is still very hard to perform, even in the conditions I will try to recreate it in, The software requires you to have a digit camera that uses stationary objects to map out the 3D layout of the given video, then you have to implement that into a 3d digital world where then you can insert any object or animation/model but then comes the hard task of keeping that certain model in sync and obtain the proper lighting it deserves.
I wanted to use CGI because of the animatronics, in the actual movie the animatronics are actually constructed chunks of metal, and unless I can get my hands on 4 insane machines with murderous intent, I'll have to figure out another way to implement them into this masterpiece of a video. It's not quite easy to either find 4 giant animatronics or construct a quality replica of these machines shown in the video, but I thought of alternatives, like box machines, as a joke of course, but a main thought I had was the puppet versions of this legacy as first seen in The Fnaf Musical several years ago today. But the reason I chose not to do that was that Someone needs to hold the puppets, or the puppets need to have a stand where they rest, but I'll still be using CGI for other scenes such as the Monitors, lighting, Neon text, and some other things that are not as major as these. The fact that I'm able to implement these things at the minimal cost of my time, and not the cost of purchasing or renting an actual entire building for this call, For example, the entirety of the Fnaf movie trailer was actually made using major CGI, major green screen, and major amounts editing to create such a trailer, and along with that, with as a matter of fact comes along with a very long movie that comes out October 27th. The use of CGI is important, but the quality is also a good scale to measure as you don't want a bootleg ratatouille just T-posing and spinning in circles attempting to stay in sync as the main character in a horror film just shines a light at him. Speaking of that occasion, getting to the part where I cry under the table for hours at a time! CGI is incredibly hard to precisely adjust and make look realistic especially in darker environments where there is a lot of metallic reflection, neon lights, and computer-generated environments.
A bonus on top of that is that is highly time-consuming to complete even a minor amount of CGI, and then apply a lighting effect on top of that, and on top of that also adds animations that have to correspond with lighting, reflection, and at the end, it isn't even sharp of a lighting effect. I hope you can see the struggle, and I wish there was a way I could compensate for this human error with a button that automatically does it for me, but there's not, even with the automatic button it provides, you have to spend about two hours on just perfecting the tracking of the shot. I hope you can see the pain this is capable of inflicting upon an average lad who doesn't even know how to begin the process itself, I'll use a more relaxed version of computer-generated imagery where I am able to be more flexible than normally, but I am also able to comfortably spend my time fine-tuning the points. I keep speaking about fine-tuning, and I hear people say, "Bro it's not that serious, you don't need to do that" EXCEPT I DO, I need to, because it'll be unatural if I don't, and this fine tuning is nothing compared to actual expertiese and showcase of skill, what I try to do here is far from what actual profesionals do in terms of skill and effort. What I will do here is an attempt in making somthing thats not even in the same space, location, or existance look like it's meant to be there and that it's a part of that same enviroment, that's my job, not to make it look pixel perfect, but okay to the naked eye, if you look close enought it'll be bad but you know. Anyways I hope you enjoyed my baby tantrum on why I decided to make an attempt to use CGI within this wonderfull video of ours, so anyways make sure to Liken Sie, abonnieren Sie und aktivieren Sie Benachrichtigungen! which transleted to Like, Subscribe, And Enable Notifcations!
