Yesterday I had this idea for Render Duels, to see who can make the best cuts on pictures our judges choose for us. Who can cut it the smoothest, how different they cut the image (leaving certain things in the picture, etc.), all within a short time frame, say...5 hours.
This is going to be the trial thread so we don't clog up the rest of the forum with Renders if no one wants to see them. All duels will be held here this week.
I'm taking on anyone who wants to duel, and also I need a judge.
The time thing is not an issue for making the render but the question would be is how will you get that set with everyone in different time zones and different schedules? Will this be a one on one kind of thing like a sig duel?
It will be one on one, unless the judge allows more, but that seems useless.
As for the timezones, the threads (or in the case of the trials, just the duel in this thread) won't be started until both participants are online and have conferred with the judge on when it is convenient for them all.
Hmm. I'd do this, but I'll get my ass handed to me. None of my cuts are too great...it's mostly just for use in signatures when I'm planning on blending it enough to gloss over any errors.
I think this is a great idea, but I'm no good with rendering so I can't really try it.
