I've been playing around, making Matrix-style bullet time. I think I've come pretty close here, although I'd like to try and make it a bit more visible. More work is needed. =) What do you think of this?

Excellent work Robert. Funny I was playing about with a similar concept the other night, it was actually doing the animation side of a matrix style bullet.You know how they pan around an object. Mmm, interesting:)

I never intended to make art.

This looks great but perhaps a darker colouring for the passage of the bullet. Will like to see the end product on this one. well done so far. :)


Smile, your dead a long time :)

It's a little more involved than that. ;-) Thanks though. =)

MoonGoat-- Yes, I tried that. Unfortunately, when I do so it reinforces itself, so I end up with a long trail of darkness behind the bullet no matter what I do. =( Still, I'll keep trying. =P

Very cool effect, but try to change the color of the bullet, and remove the shadow. Btw did you draw the line and then distort with filters in PS to get that effect ;) Try to use the wave filter, for this it would be perfect :) It was just friendly critic :)
Open your mind and share the knowledge!

tantarus-- Thanks, but I actually don't own Photoshop. This is 100% Bryce, except for some very minor color changes in Paint Shop Pro to add the green look that the Matrix has. =)

Good touch with the greenification, nothing matrixes an image better than a caustic light green filter. Do you think adjusting/brightening/darkening the specular and specular halo on the tube mat could make it more visible?

Hmm... Possibly. I could try that. I've got a few other ideas as well whenever I finally have to implement them. On the plus side, I seem to have discovered a pretty good method of producing transparent distortion, rather than the trails made in the Matrix. I've already got a use for this in mind, so we'll just have to see. =)
