Att visualisera framtidens energi
OE Systems AB utvecklar WaveMove®, ett system för skalbar vågkraft som komplement till vindkraftsparker.

Ett prima exempel på den klassiska utmaningen: Hur synliggör och förklarar man en banbrytande produkt redan i pilotstadiet, innan den finns installerad och redo att fotograferas i sitt rätta element till havs? För att ge investerare, samarbetspartners och beslutsfattare en förståelse för systemets potential behövde OE Systems grafiskt material till webb, presentationer och produktblad.

Här kom Ternevision in i bilden – under det senaste året har det varit ett stort nöje att anta denna utmaning. Leveransen innefattar hittills 3D-visualiseringar i form av stillbilder och video, förklarande animationer samt bygge av webbsida.

Ett alltigenom ljuvligt samarbete inom en bransch som känns helt rätt och aldrig behöver gröntvättas.

In a recent project for @visionhallekullen Ternevision had the pleasure of creating visualisations already in the concept phase. A prime example of the value in iteratively testing how different design versions appear and are perceived in their actual environment. 

A process involving a wonderful mix of meetings around the client's creative napkin sketches, drone flights, camera tracking, photogrammetry, and procedural modeling resulted in an appreciated outcome!

Elevation drawings

Ternevision creates highly realistic visualizations that seamlessly integrate planned buildings into their actual environments.

An efficient and flexible methodology is leveraged to merge detailed 3D models with high-quality drone-captured imagery and video.

The final product can be an edited video, complete with music..

..or high-resolution still images.

This example project demonstrates how realistic visualizations can provide powerful support at various stages of a construction or real estate project:

Investment decisions and fundraising
Decision-makers are given a clear and credible view of the project’s design and visual expression within its context.

Building permit process & communication with authorities
A visual reference that clearly shows the building’s relationship to the landscape, sightlines, and surroundings can help streamline permit applications and facilitate dialogue with local authorities.

Marketing before construction begins
Buyers or tenants can engage with compelling promotional material at an early stage.

Pitch material & presentations
Architects, developers, and project stakeholders can present ideas in a visually convincing and accessible way.

Dialogue with the public & neighbors
A clear and shared visual basis for discussion helps foster understanding and acceptance during community consultations.

Behind the scenes

When the small ones leave the nest..

Blender software is used to find and track reference points in the video, accurately recreating the drone's movement for perfect alignment.

Using photogrammetry - a rough geometrical copy of the ground and surrounding objects is created, allowing for realistic shadow catching of the 3D objects and natural integration within the environment.

From simple input in the form of two-dimensional drawings and with minimal manual work, the building's structural layers are generated through procedural modeling, separated into individual components. All within a parametric setup that allows for easy adjustment.

The house's separate parts in separate layers allow a parametrical animation, where all timings and movements can be easily adjusted.

A breakdown of the video's different layers that combined create a visually compelling and realistic impression of how your buildings will appear on site.

The project involved sourcing suitable models, kitbashing components, and developing a unified theme based on a studio-style concept.

Model edits were done in Blender, with final rendering completed in Unreal Engine using path tracing.

Ok, so Unreal Engine is amazing.

This piece is an exploration of Houdini and motion graphics, starring a golden oldie set in a procedurally generated abstract environment, where I had the pleasure of writing a few lines of VEX code to achieve sinewave movement with a touch of randomness, and the car imprint.

Presenting a cinematic experience created with my Customizable Cinema Scene Generator, built entirely in Houdini. This render showcases just one of the many possible outputs of this dynamic, procedural tool, demonstrating how detailed and flexible theater environments can be created through procedural modeling and cloth simulation.
With adjustable chair dimensions, seating layouts, curtain placements and more, this tool gives users endless possibilities to craft unique cinema spaces.

This project was created during my first few weeks of exploring Houdini. With my developer background, I truly enjoy combining code, node networks, and the viewport in a fully parametric and procedural workflow to bring scenes like this to life.

Shocking footage from Tjörnbron, Sweden!

Kong was a bit angry that day..

A VFX-shot where an rigged 3D model was animated with motion capture and comped into camera-tracked footage shot with a drone and an iPhone.
The target look was raw & shaky handheld “found-footage” accompanied by news-helicopter material, without music or sound effects.

Camera shake, zooms, faked autofocus-struggling & video glitches was created with After Effects.
Comping done in Nuke, editing in Premiere.

Compositing 3D into live footage, along with the logical problem-solving involved, can often be a fun challenge. 7 different camera angles was camera tracked in Blender.

By modeling simple copies of the bridge & cables and getting their position exactly matched to the tracked camera, this geometry could be used to partly obscure (holdout) the character already in renders. This spared the process from any tedious masking & rotoscoping in post. It also made it possible for the HDRI lighting to cast shadows of this bridge-copy onto the character, and also the other way around - to give the bridge the gift of some good old monkey shadows.

The joy of acting out and capturing the motions of an angry gorilla.

First time experimenting with mocap and bringing movement to a purchased, pre-rigged character. The tool used was the amazing Move One iOS app and its single camera setup. Not without minor glitches such as some self-collisions and occasional sliding feet, but a really fast process from video to animated armature. For rig retargeting the Simple Retarget Blender plugin was used (only later found out about the even better Rokoko tools).

Project breakdown:

The original mesh has the correct measurements but is tesselated and quite rough, resulting in close-up camera angles showing visible pointy corners where round edges is desired.

This was solved in Blender by an overall triangles-to-quads-conversion, and a subdivision surface modifier, with manually placed creases where sharp corners/edges should remain sharp.

Custom rigging:

A handy way of controlling the drones movement is achieved by a combination of parent-child-relationships, empties/null-objects, drivers, copy rotation-constraints and custom properties.
