Gisele's water dress?
Any idea of the post production on this? I figured that it was some photoshop work but any clues as to what they did? I wouldn't know where to start... Feb 10 08 11:27 am Link A link to the pic might help. =o) Feb 10 08 11:29 am Link Pictures? Feb 10 08 11:29 am Link Feb 10 08 11:30 am Link i have stared at that photo for days, still have no idea Feb 10 08 11:30 am Link amazing! how how how...... me want Feb 10 08 11:31 am Link try googling "PS water drops" and go from there. Feb 10 08 11:31 am Link Funny I was going to start a topic on this as an argument against all the "Is photoshop over used... does photoshop belong" arguments. This image is not possible without it. To be honest I would say the water is most likely computer generated using some very.. VERY skilled 3D artists and a lot of actual image sampling to create the frae structure. The bitch of it is getting the texture and transparency right. -Tizzy Feb 10 08 11:34 am Link There are several ways to do all start w naked shoot and end in PS. Ask her if you want more details or http://www.n-sane.net/effects/water-drops/index.php. EL Feb 10 08 11:34 am Link Sorry I didn't provide a link. I figured anyone who saw it was immediately going crazy trying to figure it out. It's on the cover of at least one magazine in half the world and jumps off the magazine racks into your hands where you stare at in shock and awe... Feb 10 08 11:36 am Link Video production software designed the water initially, than PS took it to the final stages of extreme detail.

Was that developed in Maya? Lightworks? There are lots of water plug-ins available for programs these days. Doesn't look like an After Effects plug-in...

Feb 10 08 11:39 am Link No it is a photo of water splashing which was manipulated in photo shop then they used different layers and blending modes to put them together. Thanks for the links those were amazing photos. Feb 10 08 11:39 am Link Chad M Gardner wrote: I can see how several pictures of something splashing in water could pretty easily be manipulated to produce this. Good call!! Feb 10 08 11:42 am Link So are we saying it wasn't done in-camera then....?  Surely, with an 8x10 camera and some big plates of glass, and some mirrors and... Feb 10 08 11:43 am Link you could do that effect with a 3d software, maya, cinema 4d, etc..... not saying thats how that image was done.

Feb 10 08 11:47 am Link That's the real question; is it real water or CG water? They use both in film. Real always looks and behaves more like water but when you can't get to behave right, there is CG. Dramatically different workflows though... Feb 10 08 11:48 am Link csaltphoto wrote: I would say it does not! Fake behaves like water, real water does not behave at all really Feb 10 08 11:50 am Link StephenEastwood wrote: LMAO !!! Feb 10 08 11:52 am Link i think it's cgi, you could use a meta object in 3d to create the water..  Feb 10 08 11:53 am Link csaltphoto wrote: it does behave better in video, but it's a still you can get it to do whatever you want... so yeah.. it's computer generated... no doubts.. they can get the curves the want and stuff Feb 10 08 11:53 am Link StephenEastwood wrote: Great link, thanks! Interesting since I have to research/produce some allegorical/abstract videos for work this year on the subject of "currents" (climate change of course... sigh). Have to get my contractors to start playing with this plug-in and get up to speed. Apparently it's cross-platform. Feb 10 08 11:58 am Link StephenEastwood wrote: Kind of the point though in that real water reaches a level of randomness that is difficult to model with reasonable processing limitations. Sometimes it's just cheaper to go real, rather than book the render farm for a month... Although I was reading in Wired a month or two ago about some Danish guy who has a new program that uses new algorhythms to generate the complexity of ramdomness in natural fluids and currents. Problem is, once it starts running, you can't control it really! But it's helpful in areas of scale. But it's the rendering that's the killer. Last project I did it was something like 5 minutes a frame for 1920x1080. But for a single frame like the Gisele shot, that would be a breeze even at higher res.

The resulting images were manipulated using masks and channels to get the final result. Feb 10 08 12:14 pm Link Danny Does Glamour wrote: Were there any pics from the shoot? Was she wearing the mo-cap blue/green lycra suit (for keying out later)? That route sounds promising. Feb 10 08 12:17 pm Link csaltphoto wrote: I don't remember any shots of the set where they were throwing the water. There were some behind the scenes shots of Giselle being shot in a bikini though.

Feb 10 08 01:08 pm Link somewhere on this flash based site, http://www.ipanemagiselebundchen.com.br/ there's a behind the scenes "making of" link that is not informative, except that in all the pics Adriana was photographed in a nude toned bikini. Funny how with that kind of budget, it's ok to spend the extra thousands on post production work to remove the bikini. Feb 10 08 01:38 pm Link Maya Feb 10 08 01:40 pm Link Throw rocks into a bucket and take a picture or design the water in a 3d program. (much easier to work with!!!) -joshua Feb 10 08 01:45 pm Link ADRIÃNNE FERREIRA wrote: that is insane! Feb 10 08 01:47 pm Link utako omori wrote: What a piece of crap website.

Basically, they took a pic of her and then use another model and splash waters on the other model. Then photo shop were used to transform the image. Feb 10 08 01:51 pm Link |
