Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Kali on November 15, 2012, 06:46:22 PM Thanks Dinky, here's another one (and better I think):

Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: cKleinhuis on November 15, 2012, 09:46:34 PM from where does the brightness come ? from density ? or is it an animated param of yours !?
Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Kali on November 15, 2012, 11:58:36 PM @eiffie: thanks, and good idea... I'll try to do something later
@CK: It comes from accumulated step count... the rays don't stop when passing through the fractal and as it is a surface with no volume, the results are this thin bright layers, then I use sin function to vary the intensity in time. Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Kali on November 16, 2012, 08:27:46 PM This one uses different approach for the volumetric rendering, and also I implemented eiffie's idea :)

Are they dynamic fractals? It looks like the small parts oscillate more quickly, but maybe you clamp the oscillation speed as I would expect more bristling of the surface otherwise. :thumbsup1: Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Kali on November 16, 2012, 09:28:37 PM Thanks, Tom. This are not dynamic fractals, but will post some fractally animated ones later.
Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: SJS02 on November 17, 2012, 12:39:34 AM I love these! Subtle.
Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: M Benesi on November 18, 2012, 06:34:20 AM Awesome. I really need to learn to animate with fragmentarium.
Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Kali on November 18, 2012, 09:29:00 AM Thanks SJS02 and Benesi.
In Fragmentarium declare this: Code: uniform float time; Then you have to do all based on this time variable. Consider that you have to use the older non-progressive renders (like DE-Raytracer-v0.9.1.frag). For this animations I'm using my own tracer mod, and I use sin and cos function for varying parameters. I still have to work on camera animation, but maybe I'll wait for Syntopia to implement some keyframe system (he said is planning to do it in the future versions). Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: subblue on November 18, 2012, 11:23:09 AM These are stunning! Excellent work as usual Kali :)
Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Kali on November 19, 2012, 06:33:59 AM Thanks Tom!
I just uploaded this to Youtube, but not so good video quality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jZFAUcjjHc Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: M Benesi on November 19, 2012, 07:48:03 AM Thanks SJS02 and Benesi.

Love the jellyfish. :D Apparently there was a bug in the version I was using- time didn't increment in animations. I downloaded the newest beta (from the DE thread), and will probably get around to testing it tomorrow. Without keyframes... I'm going to have to design a bunch of algorithms around time to manipulate the variables... Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Alef on November 20, 2012, 05:47:13 PM Super! Jellyfish. Well, maybe try making it green like leaves?
Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: thargor6 on November 20, 2012, 11:50:40 PM Nice stuff! Reminds me on flame fractals, and I love flame fractals ;-)
Title: Re: Bioluminescence Post by: Don Whitaker on December 24, 2012, 06:47:04 AM I am gobsmacked. :love: Those are gorgeous. Wonderful idea and beautifully rendered. |
