There are lots of neat technologies happening in this video so I am going to list them in bullet form for convenience:
• Fluid simulation from Blender exported as mesh animation.
• Water caustics projected onto walls and characters using animated textures.
• Switch from forward rendering to deferred to support high quality lighting.
• Triplanar mapping to project wetness onto every surface around the pool and Max.
• New subtitle system so hearing impaired viewers can see what is being said by having it typed out on cue with the sound being played.
I really am happy with how this scene came out and felt myself pushing what I am capable of in making it. Looking forward to doing that some more for sure 🖤
