3D Car Chase Animation ( Blender CGI )

Описание: A car chase animation created with Blender 2.9 and rendered on Cycles: A CGI car chase through the city night.
✅ THE ARTWORK: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Xn...

The vehicles come from the add-on Transportation for Blender 2.9 :

Cars are imported in Blender with the add-on, uv unwraped in Blender and textured in Substance Painter.
This project was carried out over two weeks, during my free time. I had to make compromises especially on the compositing.

➡️ Scene set-up
The vehicles are animated with the same curve that create the road. All assets are high-poly but managed with an instance system. In that way, it's possible to duplicate each vehicle many times, without overloading the scene in Blender. In addition, I added a random color gradient on the car paint shader of each vehicle, which allows to obtain a new color when I duplicate the car.
I use the RIGACAR add-on by digiCreatures for all the vehicles of this shot:    • Rigacar for Blender - part 1: generate car...  
The building comes from the Metropolitan pack by videoCopilot : https://www.videocopilot.net/products...

➡️ Workflow
No modeling involved in this project. Just assets arrangement, UV set and shading.
Assets textured on Subtance Painter
