Transformers Made With Autodesk’s Entertainment Software Posted by Raluca in August 15th 2007 You ever ask what software they use to make this Summer Blockbuster Films? Transformers, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Surf’s Up, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, Penelope and countless other feature films have been created using Autodesk technology. Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) and his posse returned in the long-anticipated trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End. Post-production facility Asylum completed 315 shots with a visual effects pipeline that included the Autodesk Flame and Autodesk Toxik visual effects solutions, Autodesk Maya 3D animation software, and Autodesk Lustre digital color grading system. In one scene shaped by Asylum using Flame, Sparrow is exiled to a desert purgatory where he begins to hallucinate and sees 20 clones of himself dressed as his crew. The Flame system was also used to create the climactic maelstrom backdrop along with computer-generated characters, mast extensions on miniature ships and track shots. Toxik was used for compositing, color correction, and final tweaks. Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) was the main visual effects house for Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End. ILM used Maya and Flame as part of its proprietary SABRE visual effects system to create computer-generated characters and Maelstrom sequence. Michael Bay’s summer powerhouse Transformers exploded onto the big screen as evil Decepticons re-wage war on heroic Autobots. ILM used Maya and Inferno as part of its proprietary SABRE visual effects system to complete 460 shots for the film. Maya was used for all character animation, including the challenging opening sequence in which a robot attacks an American military base in the Middle East. Autodesk Inferno was used on two key compositing sequences, including the Bonecrusher scene where a destructive 30-foot rollerblading robot shreds through a moving bus. The robot’s bones were created using Maya and imported into Inferno, and were animated and combined with flying and burning debris. Mark Casey, ILM’s SABRE/Inferno artist, explained: “Creating and combining production plates, particle elements, computer-generated elements, practical pyrotechnics, and lens flares all in one shot can prove challenging and intimidating; knowing that all these elements can be tamed in Inferno is all the reassurance any artist needs.” Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer soared on the big screen, showcasing a battle between the powerful Silver Surfer and the planet-eating Galactus. The Orphanage completed approximately 120 shots on the film, with the majority of shots involving Maya 3D animation software. “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer presented us with an ever-changing array of challenges, from superpowers to surfboards. Maya was there for us at every step, allowing us to develop complex new effects easily and quickly,” explained Stu Maschwitz, VFX supervisor at The Orphanage. Up-and-comer surfer extraordinaire, Cody Maverick (Shia Labeouf), takes audiences on an animated journey in Surf’s Up, from Sony Pictures Imageworks. The wizards at Sony Pictures Imageworks used Autodesk Lustre color grading system for the film’s final grade. Also, a combination of software was used to create the final water animation, with much of it completed using Maya. “Maya is the core of the front-end pipeline at Imageworks,” explains Mike Ford, character set-up supervisor. “It is used for modeling, layout, animation, and some effects work.” By leveraging the power of Maya Embedded Language (MEL) Python and Maya’s API scripting, the Sony Pictures Imageworks team customized the Maya software to overcome many of the film’s challenges. Comments David Schaub, animation director at Sony Pictures Imageworks, “We never have the question, ‘Well, can the software do that?’ Because if it doesn’t, the way Maya is built allows us to create a tool that will do the job.” Modern-day fable Penelope is the story of pig-nosed Penelope Wilhern (Christina Ricci) and her family’s secret curse. Double Negative turned to Maya to create the complicated computer-generated tree that helps tell the tale in the film’s opening. The complex construction of the growing tree involved building the basic tree shape, including the trunk and main branch structure, using blend shapes to go from one small shape to one big shape, and using a combination of plug-ins to populate the smaller branches and leaves. The Reaping, Are we Done Yet?, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, and Hairspray were films completed with EFILM using the EWORKS color grading system to complete the digital intermediate. The EWORKS system consists of a proprietary configuration of Autodesk Lustre and Autodesk Incinerator technology. Other summer films created using Autodesk solutions include: Evan Almighty: Rhythm + Hues used Autodesk Maya to create computer-generated characters and CafeFX used Maya to model and animate sixty CG salt-water tropical fish 28 Weeks Later: Prime Focus London used Autodesk Flame, Inferno and Smoke to create all of the film’s photorealistic 3D shots, including the napalm bombing sequence of London’s Canary Wharf Live Free or Die Hard: Digital Dimension completed 182 shots using Autodesk 3ds Max to create 3D cars, 3D buildings, 3D crowds, 3D smoke and matte painting No tag for this post.

Transformers Prime - 2010 Scattered 3-2 was released on:

USA: 29 March 2013

no cybertron is not a robot it is just a planet

yes cybertron is a robot because in transformers cybertron series cybertron transforms in a robot called primus he is the creator of all transformers.He is known also as the most powerful transformer in the universe.

Distribution transformers change the feeder voltage to utilization voltage required by the consumer. they are essentially step down transformer which changes the voltage to standard service voltage. their rating is about 200KVA.

since these transformers are operated throughout a day, eventhough they r not carrying load r not, it should hav a good ALL DAY EFFICIENCY .

They call him Scorponok.

Starscream is an F-22 Raptor

He's probably stronger because he has a larger frame than most of the bots. Also, his protoform may be made of different alloys...it's not actually said why Megatron's the stronger brother opposed to Optimus Prime, this is just a guess.

Yes, The Transformers Revenge of The Fallen video game is multiplayer. However, you have to play online for the multiplayer option to happen.

No All three of the sisters died in the final battle

3 so far transformers, transformers revenge of the fallen and transformers dark of the moon

Some People say That The Famous Rapper 2 Poc Died From A Shot In the Head Or The Heart.Others Say He Died Because Someone Got In A Fight With Him And Had To Go To The Hospital.

No, Jetfire wasn't a Prime. He was a seeker that lived in the reign of the seven original Primes.

Shia Lebouf was not asked to return to the New Transformers movie.

at the end of the original American G1 siries galvatron [a rebult megatron] was blown

with the other decipticons to the other side of the galaxy wih the hives that cintrol

decipticon city scorponoc.

In the japnese continue of g1 was headmasters this was the begining of the continue

of g1. the autbots had destroyed galvatron but megazarak or lord zarak became the new leader of the decipticons but his city scorponac retreated.this was the end of headmaster.

transformes master force was the next which in my opinion is the best out of all

and is to long to tell

the last series of transfomers g1 was victory were th last decipticon dezarus was destroyed

fact transformers g1 the whole series was from 1984-1992 which consisted of

transformers transformers headmasters transformers masterforce transformers zone and transformers victory

they lived and keep fighting devastator then were not seen again

Breaking Dawn is divided into 3 parts. Bella, Jacob, and Bella again.

Not in the movie but in G2 he has a son with Elita One his name is... (drum roll) Starscream! But his memories have been wiped by Megatron so he doesn't know Optimus Prime and Elita One are his parents.

He is evil because, like most movies and cartoons, there always will be a master teacher that teaches someone who will become someone great later in time..... and in this case the creator of the transofrmers movies.... not cartoons... chose sentinel prime to be evil to betray the autobots... or most rather optimus prime... his successor. Because in the new movie.... Megatron was really worn out looking and weak and there wldnt b any storyline... if sentinel prime was good..

she broke up with sam in transformers revenge of the fallen the girl that appears in dark of the moon is known as Carley

In Season 2 of Transformers Prime, the episode "Operation Bumblebee part 1" we see the characters watch a commercial for the same type of car as Bumblebee and they refer to it as the "Urbana 500". It's a fictional car designed to resemble modern muscle cars such as the Chevy Camaro.

A Number of films have dealt with reincarnation, suspended animation and related ( Life after death ) subjects from a science-fiction angle of attack rather than spiritual or occult. Arguably one of the better ones was made under a variety of titles includintg ( The Head) a scientist keeps the head of his girlfriend alive in a secret lab she is decapitate in an auto wreck- the body, which was burned badly, was recovered and buried. now She needs a new body ( not to mention chassis frame) It was played seriously- and came very close to the Deneuve-Dorleac tragedy ( there are several different versions of the accident and people involved.) and stretching things, Jayne Mansfield. Holy Cow! On a more prosaic level ( also occult-as opposed to scientific life-support devices. there are films like Audrey Rose. good luck- and may I add, Plan A Head!

Optimus Prime, Ironhide, Ratchet, Bumblebee (new model), and Sentinel Prime (Optimus' Mentor)

you run behind starscream (be careful he turns around almost immediatly)and hit him 3 times, after that your character will say you have to knock the allspark away,hit him twice (the same way) and he lets go of it, then grab it and hit him with it.(But thankfully when you hit him with the allspark you can hit him on either side though).After that theres a story clip,now your megatron,BIG boss battle right,nope starscreams to much of a wimp to face you head on so you follow him through the city as a jet.Shoot him as much as you can while he's in the air when he lands find a safe place to hide until he shoots off agian,(when he lands he goes crazy with firepower).then a story clip comes up,MEGATRON MURDERS YOUR GUY!!!!,what a jerk right???
