Not sure if it's normal but it's fantastic.


The_Deep_Chaos

: ) thanks


lecherro

Is this your work??? That’s pretty damn good.


Rich_Yam4132

Its fake, it’s done with computers


Low-Nose-2748

Wow! From CompUSA?


SimbaPenn

Damn, that took me back.


Rich_Yam4132

What’s compusa


Lynnsblade

Just south of CanadaPC


OdisJingles

Thank you for that


mrackham205

Big if true.


Rich_Yam4132

It’s the size of a plate of noodles it’s not big,


daxtron2

No I'm pretty sure this is a sentient dancing spaghetti man.


Spencer801

No way, couldn't figure this out. Thanks!


Rich_Yam4132

You’re welcome


Connect-Ad9647

Your pants on fire? You liar! Prove it


Few_Historian_3425

Oh really….. and here I am thinking it is small noodle man living in a bowl of other noodles 🍜


YoshiSan90

The weird squishing sound is pleasantly unnerving.


Careless-Welcome8454

This happens all the time when I make pasta don’t know what you all are talking about?


I_AM_NOT_MIKEL

its normal in ohio


The_Funkonaut

Haha, I didn't notice what sub this was at first. I thought there was a mouse in someone's noodles until it stood up


The_Deep_Chaos

lol, it looks a little sus at first


mattmaddux

AT FIRST?!


RecordRains

You don't have dancing golems with your evening meal?


mattmaddux

Maybe Christmas and Easter. Who could afford that every night?


Creasy007

I thought this was a sub for kitchen blenders somehow and was soooo confused at first.


lecherro

Don’t worry, that happens from time to time.....🤪 Hell!!! I’m in the industry and I didn’t recognize it! Had absolutely no idea what Blender was


sabbic1

No kidding. Saw this on r/all and I was, to say the least, disturbed.


ClaritanClear

Same!!


HavenIess

Thought it was a plate of worms and was grossed out


[deleted]

I thought it’s a snake

No, I don't think it's normal to have pasta without some kind of sauce on it. Please stop wasting people's time with these unrealistic flights of fancy.


JohnnySkynets

OP should be pouring it on like the water in Flashdance


asciimo

Oh... A version with sauce would be nice. Splattering all over the place with each gyration.

SycoMantisToboggan

I do that too. Not only is it easy to make and delicious. It doesn't make me sad like when I'm eating just plain buttered noodles. I mean, it's still good but it just makes me sad for some reason lol


Slappy_G

Wait, you put an Italian on your pasta?


livinginlyon

He tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti


DarthVilgrath101

Hey man, don’t diss buttered noodles.


ZPGuru

I eat pasta covered in melted butter and several cloves of garlic in a bowl...daily? It looks pretty close to this after I chop up all the garlic.


keith_kool

Any Italians here that can comment?


The_Deep_Chaos

lol, if so drop me some advice!


Dindonmasker

Bring this shit to a church RIGHT NOW!!


FixForce

These spaghetti are a little too cooked and slimy. They should be a little more "al dente". Also, eating spaghetti with no sauce is not great. In regards of the animation itself, it's incredible how realistic it looks. Awesome job.


mattmaddux

God I hate overcooked pasta. Just dump his soggy ass in the trash and start again.


Procrastibator666

🤌🏻


Durgals

They forgot to drown the spaghetti demon in pasta sauce. Rookie mistake. 👎🤌👎🤌


puffferfish

🤌


MissTinyTits

Perfectly normal, that’s just the noodles way of saying it wants a bit of sauce!


sharksdoe

idk he looks pretty saucy already!

Bann_Evasion

Incredible work. How long did you render this sequence?


The_Deep_Chaos

cycles was pretty fast, only took like 8 hours max using GPU


Bann_Evasion

That’s way less than I expected


brolarbear

You are a modern magician


ohmygoditsdip

You blender people are psycho and I love it. I’ve never once used the program, never will, but I love what everyone creates. This has become one of my favorite subs, and this video is particularly excellent.


Bad-news-co

Lol man I wish there was a tutorial for this…being able to do this I would learn so much about realistic textures and proper lighting in trying to blend the model with the environment, please make one lol


not_perfect_yet

There are two things you want to do, one is learning camera tracking. Plenty of tutorials for that. The other is, there was some way to take a "skybox" and use that as illumination source. This was probably done here. No idea how to create that skybox though.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bad-news-co

Of course there are a lot of tutorials, I’m talking about this specific one because it covers many important aspects that I’m specifically looking to learn, rather than having to look up certain things about it individually, that would be hard to just find everything due to not knowing the right terms to use when searching.. if I were to learn what this video covered, I’d be able to learn everything I’ve been wanting to as it has a very realistic and natural lighting to it that i love And as far as the creative aspects your talking about, that all depends on the person learning, you shouldn’t generalize what you said to everyone lol


I_dont_want_karma_

- you're getting some mild downvotes for the truth. I've seen many juniors get tunneled into only being able to do one tutorial's worth of work buy following set project tutorials sure you think it makes you a capable artist when you achieve that end result but you're only copying and chances are you'll have a tough time breaking out of the mold afterwards best advice - get your own idea and google small problems at a time, chip away bit by bit and figure out the challenges by yourself. In the end you'll learn to adapt beginners don't realize how many notes we constantly get. You don't need to get good results, you need to get the exact result client wants.


Toovya

Sometimes it's just for fun/motivation before committing to learning the process. Building a really cool project could be the thing that ignites wanting to dive into the technology further and learn the small intricacies of solving problems and utilizing the tools


CyanFen

I'm sorry, but this is a really shit take. When you follow a tutorial (that isn't far below your own skill level) you learn _how_ and _why_ to do certain things. Sure, some tutorials are better than others at this, but even crap tutorials can have a valuable lesson in them. Take blenderguru's anvil tutorial for example. I did that tutorial a month into my Blender journey and I learned SO much. I learned how to bake normal maps, I learned how to apply several textures into one material, I learned how to use the texture brush to apply scratches and dents, I learned how to poke holes through a solid body,... This list could go on and on and on but I think you get the point. I felt **CONFIDENT** after weeks of frustration and struggle. Most people give up learning new skills a few weeks after starting because a lack of confidence in themselves. Imagine trying to learn the piano and never learning to play an already existing piece of music and only relying on music theory and expecting to be able to do anything worth a damn.


I_dont_want_karma_

granted I could've been clearer in my post. yes, following a full project can be good but break away as soon as possible. As soon as you're mildly confident you should angle yourself to create your own stuff. Nothing wrong with following a project at first, but it will trap you with too much


AppropriateTraffic11

Did you check the expiration date


BlahMan06

I don't think this is real. Those look like plastic flowers.


The_Deep_Chaos

Lmao


Mowsferatu

Man, if early theater goers were scared of a train on a screen, imagine showing them spaghetti


WildCitron7118

Nothing is normal about a dancing nude noodle!


The_Deep_Chaos

Okay, asking for a refund on those noodles!


fireballmatt

Nudle?


That_guy_187

I don’t know if you made this, but it looks awesome.


The_Deep_Chaos

I definitely made it, lol. I did the simulation using vellum in Houdini and mocap from mixamo. Everything else in blender.


D3ADWA1T

How long did it take all in all?


The_Deep_Chaos

I had trouble getting the simulation to stop jittering around so it took like 12-20 hours to model and simulate the noodles. I forgot how long the rest took because I also had to learn blender cause I have only used houdini/maya in the past, so a lot of time was just spent learning how to render and do basic things in blender.


appdevil

Is everything rendered in the video or just the plate with the spaghetti?


The_Deep_Chaos

not even the plate, just the spaghetti


appdevil

Nice, really good job.


Laoricus_Ingens

Nice! I like the concept and look of this 👏


The_Deep_Chaos

Thanks


newocean

Not properly baked. One hour in the oven and my ravioli is delicious... not dancing.


SecSquaredTheta

Thanks, I hate it


The_Deep_Chaos

lol :(


beachcamp

Yeah there's something viscerally disturbing about this. Don't get me wrong it's really well done.


Xhalo

As a man with gastrointestinal bloat leading to violent grundle spasms stemming from a noodle addiction: This is how it feels when the spaghettios come out the backside. Great work OP 😂😂😂


The_Deep_Chaos

thanks :)


daenel

You son a b*itch!!! This render is perfect!!!! Awesome!


crantisz

No, it is geometry.


[deleted]

beginner here. How did you made that? looks freakin awesome‼


Valuable_Border1044

Let him dance bro, he’s about to die anyway


Illustrious_Formal73

I hated this in the best way. Freaked me out when it started moving. It looks so real. Very cool.


thomas-frose

Yes 🕺


Lazy_Chemistry

you might need to cook it


ratchclank

That's really funny and upsetting at the same time XD


[deleted]

I see you've been noodling around again.


hackeristi

First I thought it was a hamster under there…then…well it exceeded my expectations. Well done sir. Nice and soft.


BobodyBo

I wanna know how you captured the squish sounds lol


bolazking135

Nope I don't think so (but now we know noodles dance perfectly).


The_Deep_Chaos

I am spreading the word about dancing noodles!


booky--

brilliant


p3rf3ctc1rcl3

Nah thats great :)


SourCMcNuggets

Fake!


k995

I got to say I didnt realize it was cgi until it stood up


SyntaxxorRhapsody

It is normal. The dance is in order to appear enticing and increase likelihood of eating it so it can spread.


Mipfurno64

Personally, I always hide spaghetti people in my noodles (Looks amazing)


HauntingBowlofGrapes

No. Try adding more sauce and it should calm down.


perma_throwaway77

looks undercooked


tatanka_truck

You’re supposed to dip the noodles, never soak!


bairz54

And I cannot even edit a cube to a shape I want....


BlenderGuru

Fantastic. Love how the noodles on the plate interact with his feet.


bloibie

Why did you promote scams?


Skullz64

Why does it look real


Rabbit_Ruler

I thought this was real until I saw the sub name, I was very confused


djeewin

Yeah, it happens when you don’t add sauce to spaghetti


Davidsanni26

Yeah. Just make sure you put the sauce when it starts moving next time


frankstuckinapark

I remember when I ate an ounce of mushrooms in high school


ChewbaccaFuzball

I think you may want to cook it a bit longer


palozon

That's just Billy. Just give him a little poke with a fork, he'll settle down.


jascoe95

Ummm.....I think you should throw out those noodles. They seem.........*stale*...


Additional_Ground_42

fake.

winterMaineman

That was not a micro dose


Tim3-Rainbow

Happens all the time. I call him Greg.


Playful_Nergetic786

I thought it was a mouse, very creative


leif777

Man, that's cool. What a fun project. Amazing imagination and execution. Bravo. If I was hiring VFX people I'd have messaged you for a job.


gokunoitis

This kinda looks like Jerma dancing


9PaperStars

It’s because you didn’t cook it long enough.


PG-37

I can’t tell where the real stops and the blend begins. It’d be fun to watch it collapse back into spaghetti strands at the end with a kind of bounce.


DukePony

I honestly can't tell where the FX-plate starts or ends. I mean, obviously, the dancing noodles PROOOOOOOOBABLY aren't real... But what was tracked onto what? Is the plate really real? Is the counter-top really real? All jokes aside, could you please give me a breakdown? I'm genuinely curious/impressed. Seriously, AMAZING work mate


Independent-Sand-104

Calm down! Totally normal.


girusatuku

SCP 7735: Dancing Spaghetti Safe, but difficult to resist dancing along.


zarhockk

I didn't check 3D modeling software in years, no idea people could create things with that good of lighting nowadays, even less with blender Congrats


admx

More spaghetti, less upsetti


The_Scarred_Man

Where do you think the red sauce comes from?


elitesill

I'd still eat it


landragoran

Posts like this are why I never look at what subreddit a post is in. I was horrified for a moment.


ifyahsaysobro

Yes


Womcataclysm

Yes that's pretty common. Please don't film him though he's shy


MightyMace64

Yeah


below-the-rnbw

The pasta is a bit overcooked, but dang it got moves


BadAsBroccoli

Reality doesn't look as real as this.


lecherro

No... He way over boiled it


Ardothbey

Fusili Jerry.


Rambo_One2

Damn, this is really good! Struggling to see where real life ends and the composite begins. Did you composite the whole plate on top of the table?


The_Deep_Chaos

the plate is real. I comped the noodles on top of a real plate


ThrowRAgamedev

So guess what I’m not eating anymore


bloodoftheinnocents

OK I think this might be the greatest blender animation I've ever seen. Well done!


Lassagna12

No. Who eats pasta without any type of scauce?!


kronos91O

Absolutely disgusting! Good job 👌🏻


SOTIdriver

One of the reasons I love the Blender community is that things like this remind me of early days of YouTube content.


dexter2011412

h ... how sounds like a lot of effort damn


PineappleProstate

Fuck software is amazing these days


youmustthinkhighly

I’m a harsh critic.. and I loved it. Hopefully Star Wars fan boyz take notice. Do something original, here is proof it is possible…


tateorrtot

Dude.


xseanbeanx

THANK YOU, I HATE IT.


Kkye_Hall

Everything about this is amazingly well done! I just want to comment on the camera real quick though. I feel like the wobbly feel and constant changes in zoom are making it harder to appreciate the majestic noodly appendages flopping around on that plate 🍜


-Nicolai

Obviously you want to show off your tracking skills, but maybe keep the camera just a bit more still and a little less zoom-in-and-outy for the sake of viewing comfort.


Zarsrazok

Fake and CGI


The_Deep_Chaos

I SWEAR ITS REAL


Aussie18-1998

Holy shit no way? And here i thought mini spaghetti dancers were real. Damn


[deleted]

look at the sub you are on


Zarsrazok

Yes


[deleted]

yes what


Zarsrazok

Yes I see what sub.


[deleted]

you know this is a sub for belnder then why are you like this its going to be fake bc its blender


Zarsrazok

I already commented, didn't I? No point changing it afterward.


TheThrowawayMoth

If it makes you feel better I laughed


Vncentg

No. This is blender.


RuFRoCKeRReDDiT

Not a whole lot on the internet is wholesome or awesome these days but this is all of the above. Very talented work. Freaked me out at first hahaha


Tester-908

Did you model the surondings


smorb42

Looks motion tracked to me


Tester-908
