using iclone4 free download version.
Hello all. I was wondering if there are any filmmakers coming from a traditional background using iclone? I have some ideas I would like to try out, short films and scenes from feature length films. I experimented with Moviestorm and feel that iclone is a superior product. Just like with MS, there are some things that I find odd about iclone and how you actually make something in the software.
I just wanted to make a scene with two people talking in a room. Where are the walls, and walls with doors and windows in them to take advantage of the amazing lighting options shown by our friend "Clonebot Zack"?
SO, I go looking for a 'set' for a living room and the search is no help s I have to go through pages manually, then I find some sets with no walls, and in particular I would at least like to have walls with doors that are iprops so its easy to use. If I buy a set that doesn't have the interactive door then its a waste as I can just make the walls and door in sketchup.
Should I be investing more time in using sketchup and sketchy physics to create operating doors and windows and then assign some kind of aml script to them ?????
Another thing, on a 'real' set its great to have the option of being able to get rid of a wall so you can move the camera back and use a longer lens setting. You should keep that in mind when creating a proper set template.
No Manual Yet? I would love to see this thing as I have wasted 2 weeks figuring out what this software can or can't do. Is the manual for iclone3 worth looking at if it there all all these new features in version 4?
Naming conventions: Its kind of hard to figure out where everything is as there are so many folders of stuff to go through. The fact that a movement for a character can be in multiple places means that you have to write down everything or keep checking the reference
