Shot 2 Full Render Preview

I've been hard at work the past couple of weeks getting the second shot completed. Below is a full rendered preview of the shot. You can also find the full resolution in the attached files!

Environment

The environment is actually relatively simple. I stuck by the principle of creating the environment around what the camera sees. For example, I don't even have a road because the camera doesn't get low enough to need one. Below is what the scene looks like outside of the camera view.

I wouldn't say it looks very good, but why spend all of that extra time working on something the camera will never see?

Simulations with LiquiGen and EmberGen

I haven't really done a lot of true fluid simulation before. I've mostly relied on cheating it, but I decided to pick up LiquiGen for some simple precum simulation. Simulating fluid at large scale is HARD and I couldn't get it to be perfect as there are a couple more... chunky areas, but I'm pretty happy with what I accomplished.

I also incorporated some more simulation work with EmberGen. This was a relatively simple explosive smoke simulation that was a result of Legacy's titanic dick throbbing. It was a bit tougher than I expected, mostly because I had to tinker a LOT with the emitter.

Shot 3 Animation Preview

On Friday I also began work on shot 3! Below is a playblast of the progress so far.

Terrain Interaction with Geometry Nodes

I'm not the best when it comes to the more math-y side of 3D, so systems like geometry nodes are a bit harder for me than other people. However, I was able to create a system with the help of a tutorial where I could have direct interaction with the ground and Legacy's dick. The node setup is below. You might have to open the image in a new tab to see all of the nodes.

Right now there isn't any deletion going on for when the dick collides with the city itself. That will be fixed later. For now, here's what the simulation looks like without the city there.
