Modeling the New James Bond Introduction

When I add the material to the barrel it stays black and there is no reflection. I'm using 2010. Not sure if I'm missing a step.

if you mean the blood that comes down, yes, you can do it in afx. just create a solid red layer, mask the blood running down, apply a layer blending mode - bevel and emboss and there you go.

Thanks so much Mike you have been a great help! The Bond producers should hire you to design the gunbarrel!! Again thanks, oh and the 3D blood like in Casino Royale can be done just using some After Effects?

Jeff,

The answer is yes, the concepts would be the same. The steps would differ depending on the software. I would think the creation and application of the material may be somewhat different as well. I wish I could be of more help, but I work in Max and After Effects primarily. Really all you need to do is figure out how to make a tube, cut grooves into it, twist it and put a reflective material on it. Deceptively simple!

Best of luck

Thanks so much Mike, reason I ask is 3d Max isn't on Mac and I wanted to make this gunbarrel, if I used another 3D program the steps would be much the same right?

You might be able to pull off something close in After Effects, though not nearly as quickly. I would start with watching my tutorial on the old school Bond intro in After Effects. Do all of the same things with the barrel, but make a comp with 28 tall thin, duplicated layers of footage as the reflection. Dim them as you go from top to bottom. Then, use CC Cylinder on that layer and add a twist. Like I said, it wont give you the exact same results because of the accurate reflections in 3d max, but it will give the look.

Best of luck

Video works for me - what browser / version of flash are you using?

Very cool tutorial Michael - I can only imagine how long it took to do this effect originally without the tools and programs we have today!
