[SFM]Smile! Smile! Smile! Nutrafin 2013-03-30 | PLEASE EXPAND THE DESCRIPTION FOR SOME FAQ TYPE INFO (most at the bottom)--------------------------------Created Entirely in Source Filmmaker, (except for some post in After Effects) I've recreated nearly frame by frame the original song with 3D characters. I started March 1st and finished it about 25 days later putting most all of my extra time every day into it.You may notice half-way through the video, the character models get an upgrade. That's when I found Poninnahka's re designed models. Unfortunately I could not replace the original models with the new ones without re-animating each shot due to different skeleton structures.Quick shoutout to www.equestriaforums.com for letting me post a few progress updates throughout the month. Check them outFeatured on Equestria Daily:http://www.equestriadaily.com/2013/03/smile-smile-smile-in-sfm.htmlHonorable Mention List for March 2013 Top Videos:http://youtu.be/4Y4z-3b2aisWatch it side by side with original:http://youtu.be/of27lz3yhEcMain Models Used: Pony Overhaul by Poninnahkahttp://browse.deviantart.com/art/Pony-Overhaul-Females-Release-357693278Pinkie Pie Playset (includes the Sugarcube Corner House and several props):http://discopears.deviantart.com/art/Pinkie-Pie-Playset-Garrysmod-Props-Models-334043382A few answers to questions and concerns from the comments:First and foremost - I'm just an animator and I'm only one person. I left things out and have mistakes. I dont have a team telling me whats missing and what needs fixed. I did not CREATE ANYTHING in this video. (except the fail brush missing a texture) I merely give them movement. I used only what I could find at the time. So question: "That pony around 22 seconds texture is wrong"Answer: Its technically not "wrong", I just didnt retexture the template ponies. They came with the model pack listed in the description for the old models. They are for people to create their own characters. There are multiple instances of the template pony with different hairstyle throughout the video. All gray with blue hair. My excuse for not retexturing was just laziness. I honestly dont have a better one.Q: "Everyone lives in Sugarcube Corner?"A: Yes. Yes they do. Everyone loves cupcakes. But really, its the only ponyville themed house as detailed as that. I Looked at the ponyville map made for gmod and sfm and something about it just didnt sit right with what I wanted...Q: "Why do I see certain ponies where they shouldnt be? Like Sweetiebell in the window with Berrypunch"A: This should be a recurring theme you should catch on to. Additional models for every character just dont exist. The ONLY child models I could find were the CMC w/Babseed. I chose sweetie bell for that.Q: "Why arent the steps in sync with the music?"A: I never even noticed it until pretty late, when it was pretty obvious too. Every single Walkcycle in the video is an exact copy. I made one cycle and reused it over and over. Quick and Painless.Q: "are you going to make another one?"A: Yes, Im working on it, it takes time, these things: http://youtu.be/io5wDGZTXDc - soon™ This is more of people just pointing out: "This is creepy" (oh that sounds familiar....)A: Different tastes for different people. In the end I like this style the most. Theres really not much else I can do. Get over it."The models look twisted and tortured at times..."A: Limitation of the model. Nothing I could do. I cant twist, bend and pull the mesh to smooth things out perfectly. If something bends improperly it casts a weird shadow."I see Mic the Microphone, Tombstone, ...etc"A: I needed every finished model I could find and that included these. They are in no way involved."Theres no confetti or sun or lensflare"A: Oops. I rushed myself too much just to get this out. Continuity issues:"Trixie has a hat and cape one second and nothing the next"A: Another Oops. Things happen. twitter.com/Nutrafin3Dhttp://nutrafin.deviantart.comhttp://steamcommunity.com/id/nutrafin
Thems Fightin Herds! - 3D POM Character Rig - Created with Autodesk Maya Nutrafin 2016-02-12 | Them's Fightin Herds! - PomOverthought and detailed explanations follow....First - I'll say that I'm in no way involved with Mane6. This was done just for fun and to learn some basic modeling and rigging in Maya.Coming from working on a lot of SFM horse stuff, this seemed like something 'different' but very familiar and fun to create, rather than just moving ponies around.Second - The glaring issues and problems seen in this animated turn around.... Believe me I see them. They aren't a one click fix. This isn't a rig like SFM (technically not even a rig), thats just bones with skin on them. The IK rig running Pom took hours to build (not including skinning to the mesh) and to get working and is incredibly complicated and fragile....but compared to a REAL studio quality rig, makes this looks like SFM, honestly. It's fragile enough that if I tried to fix the existing problems I would probably create a thousand new ones in the process. I am not skilled enough to troubleshoot Maya rigging yet. It was dangerous enough of me to even start with a 4 legged creature.Here is an earlier look at the skeleton: youtube.com/watch?v=bgueDHWGRVQAnd also an early look at the blendshapes: youtube.com/watch?v=mLK3oRPyS0II didn't use bones for face rigging yet. That seemed more complicated at first. Maybe some other time.There's other, more minor details that could be better, like the mesh is a bit rough in some spots or the animation is too floaty and slow. This was meant to really just be a demo of what I have learned to do, not an animation showcase that was made in probably 30 minutes.Third - speaking of learning to do this... I keep seeing YouTubers sponsored by Lynda.com and I finally dove in. (thanks Jacksfilms...) I watched a whole TWO (2!) courses and this is what I ended up with. Not the most beautiful thing, but also nothing to scoff at in such a short amount of time. I HAVE had experience in Maya, but only in animation. I could make cubes and circles beforehand.----- NOT A SPONSOR! =P -----Interested in learning this stuff?These are the 2 courses I followed.

A True True Friend [Part 2 - SFM/MLP Comparison] Nutrafin 2015-09-04 | Watch the Part 1 original: youtube.com/watch?v=pCoR3H6SbBs_______Copied from original video description_______It's finally here! "A True,True Friend" taken from the season 3 finale, re-created entirely in Source FIlmmaker. This time it's a lot more literal compared to "Smile! Smile! Smile!"We started working on this a short while after I put my first Pony video out which was re-creating the Smile song. (youtu.be/pHlVgqSzf38)At the time, this was the most requested song to do next. I really didn't plan to do another one because of the time and effort needed, but then I got a message from Discopears (Lucas Sabatka) offering to create more of the buildings in a similar style to Sugar Cube Corner if I ever wanted to create another such video. Of course I had to accept and work eventually began. Turns out he did a lot more work than I could have ever imagined and created nearly every single building and prop seen in the cartoon during this song.So... an absolutely huge thanks to Lucas for sticking through to the end. Without his work this wouldn't have happened AND you guys probably wouldn't have all of these AWESOME and free to use scene building props to use in your own creations!

Unoriginal [Maya Practice Animation] Nutrafin 2015-06-25 | Just a random animation with audio from an 11 Second Club competition. Started this awhile ago like everything else I do. Main focus was on Mery. Just spent a couple hours today throwing in the Joe rig. Which, for some reason Maya 2016 doesnt render correctly. Works fine in 2015, BUT renderman decided to stop working in THAT version and didnt show any textures at all. I'm tired of fixing it.And in the end I decided not to even render it in renderman because I simply dont have the CPU power to render this many frames within the next century and look decent. So this is just a viewport playblast.
[SFM] Porkchop Sandwiches! - {Language Warning} Nutrafin 2015-01-18 | Finishing something I started in September 2013. Only the "Porkcop Sandwiches!" part was done then. Decided to finish it this weekend.I didn't really care to polish anything. Lighting and camera probably took a whole 5 minutes and I said screw it and rendered. This whole video is just kind of ridiculous, didn't wanna over complicate it...Original Video: youtube.com/watch?v=L1BDM1oBRJ8
Not the Car! - 11 Second Club Short - October 2014 Nutrafin 2014-10-29 | More 'practice' animation. This time I'm heading back into Autodesk Maya. So there's not a whole lot of premade scenery or props to use (for free), so this scene is pretty ugly and bare, but the character rigging is 1000 times better than what you can achieve in source filmmaker.This is an entry for The Eleven Second Club for the October 2014 audio clip.As complicated as things can be in Maya, things break, and they did. A lot. I had to figure out what I should and shouldn't be doing with these characters a few times... so I ended up cutting a lot of time animating, and fixing broken rigs and textures. I kept a timer running when I was actually animating and it ended up only ~19 hours. Rendered over 2 nights.I do still have pony videos to finish, but its kind of become a joke at this point. But they still exist and I won't abandon them. They will happen someday. I just can't keep promising I'll release anything anytime soon anymore.Created with Autodesk Maya 2015Bonnie rig by Josh Sobel available at http://www.joshrigs.comMalcom rig from AnimSchool available at http://www.animschool.com/malcolmInfo.aspxhttp://www.11secondclub.com
Alley-Oop [SFM Practice Animation] Nutrafin 2014-07-06 | No ponies this time. Just a short and simple clip. I wanted to try doing more detailed human work. Sounds are whatever I could quickly find in SFM.
Behind the Scenes of Memories Nutrafin 2014-06-03 | Watch the original "Memories" video here: http://youtu.be/0Clt9QMXrOoI thought I'd attempt to make a visual breakdown of some stuff in after effects. Although not that impressive or lengthy, some might still find it interesting enough. I don't go into any detail, and there was a whole lot more going on, but this was the simplest way to show it.This comp in the screenshot was the most complex, but you can kind of see there were a lot more... http://i.imgur.com/Y2Knqam.jpgAfter that, there is an alternate camera view of the entire video showing the whole 'no camera cuts' thing and everything else in the background. (it's a mess)Music: Noels Theme -The Last Travel-Final Fantasy XIII-2 OSTtwitter.com/Nutrafin3Dhttp://nutrafin.deviantart.com
Memories Nutrafin 2014-06-01 | Twilight manifests a few of her favorite memories of Spike as she dreams through the night. Where is Spike? Is he alright? Did something Happen?That's for you to imagine...............or...!

I thought this sort of sounded like Twilight and figured I could make a simple video of her singing. After thinking about it, I decided I want her to be in focus at all times, and always see her face when she is singing. So the entire video is one, long shot. No camera cuts, and no 'blades' in SFM itself. That last part was honestly a mistake that I'll be sure to never do again. SFM became so slow to render anything, even when hiding objects and lights disabled, it made working with the program rather infuriating. I'm using that as my excuse for not wanting to continue polishing this to look better. This should give you an idea why: http://imgur.com/VJr7dHaToo much stuff is not good. That wasn't even all of it in the end.Anyways, I got the main concept down, then I had to figure out why she was singing about memories, or who she was singing about. I Figured I'll just throw in a few random clips of her with spike at different points in time. THEN that led me to think of the 'evolving' scene or whatever you would want to call it. The background changing as the camera revolves around Twilight...I honestly didn't plan for any of it. I just made one 'set' to the next for whatever looked good enough. So I don't really know the story with the forest, or the wheat field or whatever. It just looked fancy is all.After everything is SFM was done, I had to render about 4 different times, each time with various things changed in each one. This would all come together in After Effects. (I might make a sort of short Behind the Scenes video to better show that stuff)Without going into as much detail here, I'll say that I learned a whole lot more about using AE for this one project than I ever have in the time I've had the program. (6+ years, simple projects, nothing super fancy)twitter.com/Nutrafin3Dhttp://nutrafin.deviantart.com

Random Pony Shorts [DeviantArt Animated Gifs] Nutrafin 2013-12-05 | This is just a random assortment of the animated gifs I put up on DeviantArt. (which is why they are so short, by the way) Only these are in HD and have a couple sound effects added.Putting these up since I haven't really spent much time in SFM lately.At the moment, not all of the shorts in the end clip are actually out/finished.

No Pinkie! No Emo! [DeviantArt Gif] Nutrafin 2013-11-01 | Figured I'd put at least some small thing up on here even if its a bit older..

Instead you get high quality youtube with sound! yay!This was a suggestion from a DeviantArt Journal post of mine.Don't let the title indicate anything. I don't know if there will be a day 2+. The title just fit.Had some trouble with the wing swap even after having done it several times before. Even started over multiple times. I just failed this one...Twitter: @nutrafin3dDeviantArt: nutrafin.deviantart.com
Long Day [SFM] Horse shit Nutrafin 2013-09-12 | I started off by wanting to just make a pretty picture and ended up with this image: http://nutrafin.deviantart.com/art/Long-Day-SFM-399429604That wasnt enough, so I had to add some life to it.I still hate configuring the lights...I came to a happy enough balance for the video. Its one thing to set them up for a single frame, its another to have it properly work while in motion.Took about 6ish hours to set up and animate the first day. Probably took longer to find the sound effects and music that just barely fit in the next day.-----I like to point out my own "known issues" that I spot usually 3 seconds after uploading something.....:-AJ's hair is clipping her hat, couldn't be helped unless her hat was in a really awkward position. Jiggle bones would not move that chunk of hair without really screwing up what you could actually see.-This didn't actually "go wrong" but I know those aren't apple trees.....I just liked the settingTwitter - twitter.com/Nutrafin3DDeviantArt - http://nutrafin.deviantart.com Steam - http://steamcommunity.com/id/nutrafin
[SFM] I dont wanna know... Nutrafin 2013-08-22 | So....3D camera tracking kinda works... I blame my poor camera and low light for the jittery track where you see the characters slide around...Tracking has a hard time on blurry video. But its my first try.... Opens up some new possibilities I guess.Picking at my own work, after effects roto, shadow, color correction fails... blehAttempting to "cover up" the pillow with rarity's body didnt work like I had planned, so...yea it looks weird.Had to add some fake blur and fuzz to attempt to match the camera.And the camera track actually failed right at the end so the characters move really awkwardly off the screen. I had to improvise.I think it would work a whole lot better outdoors so the camera can catch more detail without blurring so much. Its just a pocket point and shoot.The music used had voices extracted from it and it wasnt perfect, so thats why you hear some quiet chatter....But the music fit so perfectlyTwitter!

[SFM] horse shit #3 Nutrafin 2013-07-08 | So i thought this was a cool effect... Rendered straight out of sfm, no post touch ups or anything.Just posting this as a demo? or something. Motion blur was turned off, so the bug/glitch where the eyes dont fully close is painfully obvious._________How to do it_________These particular models in the video already have the shader mod, but you can add the same effects to any of the pony characters. (and probably a lot of other models, havent tried myself) http://www.deviantart.com/art/Pony-Overhaul-Females-Release-357693278On this page you can find in the description - Yukitoshii's V3 shading -mod. Its pretty much files modifying the models .vmt files a little bit. Once you change those out, you (unfortunately) have to completely disable lighting in SFM by right clicking the view port and deselecting enable lighting. I dont know anyway around this. Maybe someone will make a proper toonshader that works like this while allowing lights at the same time.Then you must either choose outline only in ambient occlusion or completely disable it in the render settings by right clicking the view port again and selecting render settings.annnndd.. that should be pretty much it.

Sorry the Video Compression kinda made a few fuzzies that I didnt notice until I watched it on here in HD. I wanted to do a looping animation of some sorts, I started with the babseed song of them bobbing up and down at the table, but I couldnt find anything that resembles a malt with a straw, so thats sitting dormant for now. (oh snap hold up... that may have changed)Additional SFM video links:Smile! Smile!

Horse shit[SFM] Evil Enchantress Nutrafin 2013-05-07 | This is definitely not on the scale that Smile Smile Smile was, its really more of an in between test... I actually learn a bit from these small clips too..With that said, I anticipate some questions with the following answers...Update...or something.: Ive gotten a lot better using locks. Not perfect, but better, so hopefully future videos have less foot sliding.I have started using that script from SFMBox that lets you switch skins and bodygroups on the fly so there wont be any more weird hair glitchesOriginal Post_____________________________________1. The original pinkie pie cartoon face close up was used because a close up of the 3D model is NOT pretty to look at. And the cartoon face is just adorable anyways.2. I bent the Pinkie Pie model WAY out of its normal limits than what it was designed to do, so it looks broken here and there when shes moving around.3. The "Jiggle" bones (the hair) does not work well when splitting a scene...aka, fluttershy's hair bounces around awkwardly and pinkie's tail freaks the hell out at one point. I can plan around that next time. I originally did it so I could change the size of pinkies eyes, but that inadvertantly messes up other things. So I ended up taking out the section where her eyes bug in and out.4. Along the same lines as number 3, breaking the same "shot" up in source filmmaker causes many problems when trying to relocate the models on a new map. So I stayed in the dark room. You may notice a few bounces....5. Bonus points if you can somewhat recognize the "Source Filmmaker" text at the end. My level of skill in 3D animation doesn't directly transfer over to motion graphics, but meh. I'm just kinda testing it out for future videos. I want to different ones for each of the Mane 6.6. Overall the whole video took about 3 days worth of free time here and there. I DO STILL PLAN TO DO TRUE TRUE FRIEND much the same way I did smile smile smile.....Soon™™ for Blizzard time...7. Im sure some will still say creepy... nothing I can do.Smile Smile Smile: youtu.be/pHlVgqSzf38 Pony Overhaul by Poninnahkahttp://browse.deviantart.com/art/Pony-Overhaul-Females-Release-357693278Smile Song Piano Cover:http://youtu.be/9YGdbBkZRmQtwitter.com/Nutrafin3Dhttp://nutrafin.deviantart.com
TOBUSCUS GETS BLEEPED!!! - [SFM] Nutrafin 2012-08-30 | This was all done in Source Filmmaker using hand keyed animation (none of the built in automated goodies or animations that come with SFM)This is my take on Toby Turners "Trapped in a VLOG" video on his Tobuscus channel. You can view the original here: http://youtu.be/P20v3oJGK1UIf I had to give a rough estimate... I'd say it took about 35ish hours of work. I dont know exactly.I'm sure everytime I look at it I'll see something that could be better and stuff I could fix.. But this is where I'm going to stop with this one.http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197964271025http://www.nate3d.com twitter.com/Nutrafin3Dhttp://nutrafin.deviantart.com http://steamcommunity.com/id/nutrafin
