♦️FOLLOW this account because I'll be posting be tutorials and behind the scenes daily♦️ @allanmckayofficial - DESTINY - Bungie Games - Supervised all the FX for this project for Prologue Films a few years ago. We did ask the FX in #3dsmax - myself, Hnedel Maximore, Ben Liu and Patrick Schuler. We also initially hired an outside team for the rain but I ended up redoing it all in particle flow in the end. But it still holds up pretty well! - - - #destiny #visualeffects #vfxartist #vfx #vray #fumefx #procedural #gamer #cinematics #prologue #3d #cg #cgsociety

🔥👉 FOLLOW this account because I'll be posting behind the scenes and tutorials later this week! @allanmckayofficial 👈 🔥 - This was a fun and quick project. Originally I was going to VFX sup the shoot in Vancouver but I was processing my US Visa so I couldn't leave the country at the time. I created all of the fire for this, which was fun and got to work briefly with my boy Theo @theothecanuck who initially art directed this I believe? - Some of the effects were sped up for the cut which I didn't like and there's a few bad matchmoves simple stuff like that, but I always like projects like this where there's lots to do and little time, I think some of this I was working remotely from my laptop while handling the Sims etc. I did everything in #3dsmax with #fumefx - - #pyro #fumefx #witchesofeastend #vfx #visualeffects #cg #vfxartist #cgsociety #artstation #procedural #fx #simulation

🔥👉FOLLOW my account because I'll be posting tutorials and upcoming behind the scenes VFX work shortly 👈 - HALO WARS - Blur Studio 2006 - Meant to post this yesterday as TBT but this was 2.5 weeks to turn this project around. Probably one of the most intense (especially because I was on Bioshock at the same time) projects in terms of pacing. - I find it interesting to see what works and what doesn't. I feel we had a crack team of artists on this however the schedule was so tight there was definitely things that didn't work, we'd be doing FX before ships were rigged or animated so things would constantly be changing. It definitely was fast, but it got done one way or another. And as always it was great to work with great talent on something that gets seen by millions - #halowars #halo #vfx #3dsmax #cinematics #trailers #gametrailer #gametrailers #animation #gamer #blurstudio #blurstudios #cg #cgsociety #artstation #vfxartist

THIS IS PART 2. - I just stumbled across my old DEMO REEL! 🔥🔥😂😂 - (Uploaded to IG In 2 parts) - I was trying to find some clips for an upcoming webinar I'm doing live and I found this. - I was only 20 years old at the time, I had never left the country, I was so eager to break into film and I had a whole lot to learn! But I think it's important to look back at our roots and see how much we've grown, and where we came from. - This is part 1 of 2, as I had to split it up (total 90 seconds). - I think it's important to note that my reel WAS 90 seconds long. Forget the 5 minute reels, keep things TIGHT. There's loads of mistakes I had made, such as aspect ratios changing (we lived in a world where tv was still PAL or NTSC 4:3 and 16:9 literally had just arrived in Australia a year before. In fact, you can see Australia's first ever 16:9 commercial on this reel! :) - - Probably the perfect Throw Back Thursday! - I don't have any reels older than this, but I do have some old old work of mine from 1996 I will one day post! I'm proud of the work I had done even back then, I had just finished my 3rd feature film (2 were for Disney) although had been turning away work on Matrix and Lord of The Rings niavely which I kind of regret looking back. But it's so hard to think this was FIFTEEN YEARS AGO! Time flies. It's so amazing to see all my friends and where we've all gone, who I've stayed in contact with over the years. - - - I'd love to see everyone elses reels from this long ago, I think it would be fun to look back! - - - #demoreel #vfxartist #showreel #reel #cg #demoreel2018 #tbt #throwbackthursday #allanmckay #animationreel #vfx #visualeffects #artstation #cgsociety #gnomon #videocopilot #filmriot #gnomonschool #maya #houdini #3dsmax #thinkingparticles #fumefx #vray #vrayrender

The Time I Got To Share A Stage With Steve Woz Wozniak! - A couple of years ago I had a couple of talks I had to give in Europe. I got asked to speak at a big technology event in Helsinki, Finland. - I met up with the guys from Remedy Games who were busy on their upcoming game Quantum Break for drink, and some other studios. I worked hard on building a captivating talk, not sure if Woz was going to be listening off stage, as well as just making sure the Fins get out of their shell and get excited for his talk! - I gave my talk, I got a massive applause, so the big moment came, I was to introduce Steve Wozniak on stage. - The thing is, nobody had told me - in fact I didn't think even the audience knew. He was actually giving his talk via live stream from some hotel 'who knows where' in the world he was. So as I look around on stage wondering where in the audience he was coming from, so I could shake his hand as I walk off stage, I didn't realize there was a 30ft tall Woz-Head right behind me! I was literally the size of one of his nose hairs, and I had no idea. And.. I felt pretty stupid. I got to sit back down in the front row next to Christina and watch this gigantic head talk share his thoughts on the future of technology. It was still an honor to be up there, to get to introduce him, to be at the event itself. - I'm still trying to find the photo that put this all in context, a massive IMAX like screen with Steve's head and me looking aimlessly around for where he was going to surface on stage! So always something I can look back and laugh at - - - #SteveWozniak #apple #woz #TBT #visualeffects #vfx #speaker #allanmckay
