Hello everyone. I wanted to share a short film I made awhile ago that is live action plus 3D animation. I did alot of the work ranging from 3d animation, 3d modeling, compositing, directing, storyboarding, and scripting. Trailer Full Film
@Berserker44 - I used the normal thief script to transfer the normal directions of an elongated hemisphere to the foliage. The grass normals were hand edited.
Hey, I just wrote this in another thread: Might be useful to take a look at that script, it simplifies a lot of things with 3dsmax and skinning/weights.
