Description:


    This trailer shows a full-CG emergency landing of an airplane in the African desert. Everything—including the landscape, airplane, sand, dust, smoke, fire, and explosions—was simulated and rendered using rule-based dynamic simulation. This technique, introduced at SIGGRAPH 2001 by Scanline and Cebas, is a revolutionary tool because rules replace keyframe animation or pure dynamic simulation. It enabled us to produce this sequence and complete the job in 10 weeks with six animators.

    Features developed for this project are: advanced applied smoke-and-fire dynamics including big explosions, rule-based volume tracing, adaptive automatic terrain generation, and “one-layer” rendering technology to avoid compositing.
