Much of what we created in 3d was inspected by James Cameron himself and would be appr oved by him and put into the sets under his direction. The fast worflow enabled us to keep up with massive workload. Lightwave was the main workhorse to build the virtual sets mainly because we had a ton of assets that had to be created daily based on concept designs given us by the concept artists. I spent several months working in the VAD (Virtual Art Dept) at Lightstorm on Avatar during the design phase. The list of tools is not exhaustive and you can see there’s overlap in capabilities, depending on each company’s pipeline. countless plugins for each platform, some of them Ocula for Nuke, Ktakatoa for 3ds max, Sapphire for Combustion/AE.Adobe Premiere (proofing, rough compositing with AE).
Autodesk MotionBuilder (for real-time 3d visualisations).Autodesk 3d design max (space shots, control room screens and HUD renderings).Houdini (Hell’s Gate scenes, interiors).Lightwave (low-res realtime environments).
