Beard Punch
Ah, yes. Thanks geo321. Looks like the link (and formatting) was repaired on my original post, so never mind pretty much everything I've said here. :-/
Beard Punch
Err, sorry for the awful formatting in the previous post. It looked fine in the preview, but now it clearly does not, and I get a "forbidden" error when I try to edit the post... so yeah. guess that reddit link isn't getting posted here.
Beard Punch
>> ^spoco2:
A great opportunity lost... why did they not have a series of punches where she knocked off more and more of the beard, easy to do, he would have just had to shave out different shaped pieces from it.
Could have been hilarious.
As it stands, it's... ok.
The reason I had my beard fly off in one blow instead of chunks is that I had the idea for that one big VFX shot before I even conceptualized the rest of the piece. This was originally going to be a personal exercise in VFX to see if I could get my beard punched off my face and make it look seamless, but then I decided to make it into something more robust and entertaining by putting it into a short narrative context.
I agree that it would be cool to see the chunks, but that's not the video I set out to make. :-)
If anyone is interested in seeing a breakdown of how I accomplished some of the effects in this video, check out this post on Reddit:
