Spheres Dream

[taj]

I did the graphics for a 4k for Rebels. I called it Spheres Dream - bit ponsy but it got 2nd at Function '07. You can find it here.

It was bizarre as it was released at a party by Rebels whilst I was on holiday so I had no real idea how the final would look/sound but it turned out to be pretty much the same as the beta (and a lot better than the alpha you saw Shockie :-).

Anyway I'll probably write a short tutorial on how to do distortion shaders if there is interest.

I'm not a fan of 4K and smaller, but it's great. I like this one.

I have started learning about shader lately, so I'm interested of course.

very nice one! one of the few "little-k's" that do not crash...

[slippy]

I really liked it ... good stuff ... pretty sure your tutorial will be cool and informative as usual ...

[Shockwave]

The preview version I saw before was really promising and the finished intro here really turned out to be a great one

Actually I think it's in amongst the top 5 4kb intros that I have seen, just because it has a strong appeal to watch it more than once or twice. This is one that I will keep, congratulations this great intro Chris... This intro would have won most 4kb comps hands down.

Fucking awesome.

A tut would be greatly appreciated.

Very nice one... nice to see DBF in the greetings *thumbs up*

Thanks all for your support. The intro did better than I thought it would to be honest, but I'm not complaining! I usually like to release code but I cant release this code as its partly mixed with Rebels code but I can see enough people want a tutorial on distortion shaders so I'll write one happily.

Looking forward to see this in motion when I am back from Spain.

Good demo.  Lots of things in there for 4K!

Great production. Although a lot of things are in it - the qualitiy of each is very good.
Wasnt it you - who said that a 4kb should concentrate on one fx only  - guess this
proofs you wrong ?.

Thanks Benny and Yep it was me! If you want to win compos - the big ones (asm, bp) then 1 effect is the way to do it: see the winners for the last few years. Personally I'm not keen on this so I try to do demos in 4k. Of course its much more stressful and more likely to fail but then again, its what I enjoy.

This is impressive.



Well done Chris and the synth is great too!

[Hotshot]

that is Excellent

Thanks very much guys. I'm really happy you enjoyed it and thanks for the kind comments!

Try checking out his blog Url is in useful links / personal coder sites.

Ah yeah .. well if you know shaders try my blog at: http://sizecoding.blogspot.com/2007/10/tiny-distortion-shader.html

If not, then try http://www.lighthouse3d.com/opengl/glsl/ first.

I think I broke a board rule by posting those here :-(

I wouldn't worry... I've been known to break a few myself.
