You... you must have been quite some 5 year old.
Some things would be literally impossible to properly explain to a 5 year old.

I think it's because they already had proven capture hardware, harvest, and processing workflows. But yes, you can easily use iPhones for this now.
Looks great by the way, i was wondering if there’s a file format for volumetric video captures

Edit: As I'm digging, this seems to be focused on stereoscopic video as opposed to actual point clouds. It appears applications like cinematic mode use a monocular depth map, and their lidar outputs raw point cloud data.

Not everything has to be. Sometimes, an artist's style or a particular track just hits a particular vibe one may be after or need in a particular moment. I'm not a fan of this music either but I could imagine hearing it while I'm studying or coding. Don't trash something just because it's not your vibe. Not everything has to be Mozart.
But even if I did, why can't I? It's fine to call some music shit. Just like you can call my opinion shit.
Policing dissenting opinions and saying everything is equally worthy of praise are two sides of the same coin sliding in the vending machine that sells us the sad state of affairs we live in today.

#156Hi, I'm David Rhodes, Co-founder of CG Nomads, developer of GSOPs (Gaussian Splatting Operators) for SideFX Houdini. GSOPs was used in combination with OTOY OctaneRender to produce this music video. If you're interested in the technology and its capabilities, learn more at https://www.cgnomads.com/ or AMA. Try GSOPs yourself: https://github.com/cgnomads/GSOPs (example content included).
Great work! I’d love to see a proper BTS or case study.

#157Hello! I’m Chris Rutledge, the post EP / cg supervisor at Grin Machine. Happy to answer any questions. Glad people are enjoying this video, was so fun to get to play with this technique and help break it into some mainstream production
Great job, Chris and crew!

Desirable because it’s a rare culture + tooling combo. I’m into both and HN is one of the few places I would see them come together. So yeah, “cool”
