this doesn't match with any experience ive ever had with a concept artist in my entire life. like ever. and i would be surprised if anyone who has worked with concept/previz artists could also have a story that even *approximated* this level.

Animated movie, recent: Coyote vs. Acme's sizzle/previz reel could've been a big catalyst to getting it back in theaters and getting me in the seat. There were several trailers before Wildwood, and Tangles earned my award for best trailer.
Also, it won't count, but that animated XBOX game looks fab.

So middle of the night, so I’ll ask this question since everyone has opinions on marketing animated movies: what was the last marketing campaign for an animated movie you thought was good? One that got you to the theater.
Honestly just curious

I'm gathering previz materials for the album and AI art has really poisoned the well, grim! Eventually I will find some interesting textures and images to inspire me but the first wave of research is 😩

Made myself a thumbnailing template for storyboarding in Blender with geometry nodes.
I should probably make a repo for these types of tool to always have it at hand :)

I really want the steam frame!! I am borrowing a quest 3 from work (we use it fairly often for our projects for previz) and since it's owned by my studio theres not much i can do with it anyway outside of dev work and.. beat saber lol. I would LOVE the steam frame if I can afford it one day

I'm still here, but busy! :D Here is something I was part of between 2015 and 2017. This is NOT a trailer, but more a moodboard for studios. Only a few previz shots show the space station I worked on as well as the launch site. Could have been a hard ethical drama. :) youtu.be/7F2ncxm72jM

#CST Après, Blender fait aussi le taff pour de la previz. Godot peut-être mais les outils actuels ne sont pas orientés cinéma. Il faudrait en développer sous ce moteur pour faire de la previz facilement

The sequence was created entirely in CGI by effects studio Digital Domain and previz company Pixel Liberation Front. The sequence alone cost $750,000 to produce.

If a company marketed this as "you can load in your location photos / concept art, load in reference for your cast, and bring in the work of the stunt team to generate high-quality previz to save time / money on set", the studios would be throwing serious cash at it. But they didn't.

A few years ago, Wes Ball uploaded the previz footage for his aborted MOUSEGUARD movie to his YouTube channel. Feel like a REDWALL show that looked like this would do gangbusters.

Beyond the Capes: The Maelstrom of Micro-Edits in Modern Tentpoles - 'Black Adam' as a Case Study
If you've ever wrestled a 30-terabyte dailies dump into a meaningful story, you know the grind. Now, imagine that dump contains 15 cameras, wire-work plates, previz renders, and half a dozen VFX units, all needing to coalesce into a coherent punch. We're dissecting the specific, often brutal, challenges of editing a modern superhero tentpole, using 'Black Adam' as our lens—less about the film itself and more about the sheer logistical and creative maelstrom behind its edit bays.

Editor tools are basically 1) manager class w/ a "bake textures" button, and 2) buncha this purple camera class that stores scenecapture transforms, ortho size + has a camera component for picture-in picture previz. Still a lot of bespoke work building the scenes but should be v easy to make edits
