what's the animation level in HK? animation, not modeling .

[daBear]

Their are one Ramen Hui at PDI from HK, I wonder how many more could survive and still doing animation in HK? I have see quite a few good CG models from HK but haven't seen any good animation and that is something sad ..

從呢個forum 都睇到一二~見到好多人post model~講o既都系render得好唔好~d shadow 點樣點樣~ d face 邊度穿崩, 但有無人post d animation上來呢?~真系好少~有無人講下walk cycle應該點呢? 無呵......有無人提出可以挑戰一d動作呢?~無呵~

應該大家百花齊放~model又講~animation又講~lighting又講~texture又講~先系健康嘛~

大家對animation都唔多重視~

Is there any other popular CG forum in HK? or this is the most popular one already?

It's bcoz in most of animation project in Hong Kong, modeling, texturing and lighting take almost 70% of time and left only 30% or even less for animation. Also clients seems dont care much about the quality of animation, but rather care about the political things like logo positionm, color, text, etc....

BTW there's no formal training in animation in HK, everybody learns at themselves. Have to say only 10% of the animator in HK can do good animation.

<sigh> ...

it's very sad then ....

if everyone keep on focusing in modeling, this is not healthy lor! since most big production house in hollywood scanned their model with 3D scan and modeler to fix and clean up, nothing original la!

rendering? let the programmer do it with renderman la!

HK just follow the track from Japan, using mo-cap for most of the stuff! but remember, it's works for japan bcoz they do mostly game ma! but HK do movie and comercial! and mo-cap can't do everything ar!!
keep on like that .... "just one dead road"

yes!!

我覺得香港既3D動畫技術各方面都進步緊......唔需要太悲....
愈來愈多人接觸3D,交流會更多,因競爭會對質素要求自然提高,獨當一面系冇用,會學習更全面!!
