@MaxonRedGiant Your website is awful, its like youre trying to obfuscate what’s actually included in Universe. I’m guessing it’s the same stuff that was included when it released a decade ago + a few neural fx? But no, i didnt know that

@BLVCKLIGHTai You hurt that companys feelings

@rarerafs @EHuanglu @Ruan3D_ This is so smart bro. Start a business

[Ryan Game @RyanGameVFX]

@EHuanglu @Artsvisiongb Bro thats crazy. Bro have it just make you interstellar 2 tonight you will make so much money 😂😂😂😂 it will probably be better since its Ai

@Aval10 @BockJakob Someone had this idea 15-20 years ago

Yeah, this is how you learn about cinematography

[Amir D @starks_arq]

If you're getting into AI filmmaking, this is one of the most important lessons you'll ever learn.

You won't learn cinematography by reading about it. You'll learn it by reverse engineering frames until the logic behind them becomes instinct.

Here's a workflow that compresses years of visual training into a single loop you can run in minutes.

> Go to ShotDeck. Search the exact frame you're trying to build. "Comedy club." "Smoky bar." "Interrogation room, single overhead." Download the reference. You're not looking for inspiration... you're looking for a teacher.

> Feed that frame to Claude. Ask it to reverse engineer everything: lens, lighting, color temperature, composition, depth of field, and why each choice was made. You'll get back something like: 85mm. Hard key upper left. 3200K tungsten. 4:1 fill ratio. Shallow DOF. Subject in right third. Cool practical bleeding in from the background. Not just what's in the frame, but the reasoning that put it there.

> Now ask Claude for 10 prompt variations. Same cinematic intent, different executions. Shift the angle. Push the intensity. Move the subject. You're not copying the original anymore, you're riffing on the grammar of it.

> Run all 10 through Nano Banana Pro. Compare. The differences between outputs will teach you more than any tutorial because you're seeing how each variable actually affects the final image. Pick the strongest one. Adjust. Run again.

That's one cycle. You just studied a Deakins frame, understood the physics behind it, and generated 10 variations of your own.

Do it 50 times and something shifts. You stop needing the breakdown. You look at a frame and you already know the setup, the way a musician stops counting beats and just feels the time signature.

The technique becomes yours because you didn't memorize it... you rebuilt it from the inside out.

ShotDeck to Claude to Nano Banana Pro. Reference to understanding to creation. One loop, repeated until it rewires how you see.

This workflow is built into our platform. Reply "SHOTDECK" for access (must follow so I can DM).

@theCGchannel @maxonredshift Their marketing for Redshift RT looked pretty much identical to this 5 years ago. Then it came out and it didnt work and crashed every time you toggled it. Then a year later it was finally semi usable but it was awful. Redshift sucks… we need Cycles plugins

@DinoMFX @OTOY I worked at a studio that rendered nearly every AOV available in 8bit sRGB pngs. I was confused, i assumed i was missing something, i asked another artist how we are supposed to rebuild the beauty. He said it was a sensitive subject and not to mention it

@SpenserFX @OTOY Blood doesnt understand how instancing works 😂😂😂

@Sanctus_Art how is this different from a regular normal map?

@RohanCreates I would have loved to hire animators, but the budget for this project was $400 flat. So i had to make due with what i could

[Ryan Game @RyanGameVFX]

@RohanCreates i want to say, i actually made this opening sequence. i did it all in after effects + RunWay Gen1. Took me 1.5 days in total
