Description

Blender is an open-source 3D creation suite available for free, encompassing the entire 3D production process—covering modeling, rigging, animation, simulation, rendering, compositing, motion tracking, video editing, and even 2D animation. Its integrated Cycles engine is a powerful unbiased path-tracer that delivers breathtakingly realistic renders. The extensive modeling capabilities of Blender simplify the creation, transformation, and modification of models efficiently. VFX experts proclaim it to be “probably the best tracker in the market.” Additionally, Blender features robust camera and object tracking functionalities that allow users to import raw video, track it, create masks, and visualize camera movements in real time within the 3D environment, thus removing the need for frequent software switching. With its exceptional rigging and animation tools, Blender has gained popularity among filmmakers, leading to its use in various short films, commercials, television series, and feature-length movies. This versatility has made it an essential tool for artists and creators striving to bring their visions to life.

Description

Simulon is an all-encompassing VFX workflow tool tailored for iPhone users, allowing artists to produce VFX shots through an immersive real-time AR interface. These shots are processed in the cloud, achieving remarkable photorealistic quality. Furthermore, Simulon offers seamless integration with Blender, equipping creators with a powerful and professional workflow. The platform is crafted to cater to individuals of all skill levels, whether they are beginners with no VFX background or seasoned 3D artists and studios. As users enhance their 3D skills, Simulon’s features become increasingly sophisticated, adapting to their growing capabilities. It’s crucial to ensure that your asset is properly grounded, as this will influence its spawn position within Simulon in relation to the real-world surface. Additionally, Simulon's scaling system is grounded in actual real-world measurements, and initially auto-scales assets based on their screenspace and proximity to maintain usability from the creator's viewpoint. This thoughtful design ensures that users can focus on creativity without being bogged down by technical limitations.
