Hey everyone,
I'm excited to share some behind-the-scenes insights into the development of the 7th chapter of *
With Eyes Closed*! This time around, I decided to start with the animations to keep my graphics cards busy rendering 24/7. It's been a fun and rewarding process, and I can definitely see a big leap in quality. Looking back at animations from earlier chapters, like the third or fourth, I initially thought about reusing some by tweaking them a bit. But honestly, they just don't match up to what I can do now! I've realized how important those small details are in bringing animations to life.
So far, I've nearly wrapped up one of the two intimate scenes in the next chapter. The first one, with Eva, is quite impressive—it includes a whopping 16 animations! Out of those, 14 are all prepped and ready for rendering, and the last two will be good to go in the next few days. Most of these animations have over 400 frames each, which means a lot of rendering time. It'll take over a month on my two trusty 3090s . But while that's happening, I'll be fully immersed in working on text and crafting those static renders. Plus, I'm planning to upgrade my graphics cards soon!
I've upped the rendering time for each frame to retain more sharpness, avoiding denoisers and enhancing image quality.
Here are a few renders from the scene with Eva, and I promise to show you some animations next time!
Thanks so much for being part of this journey with me. Your support means the world!
