That was pretty cool. Good share.
Woah! Awesome stuff!

She’s like Moses!
deja vu
There’s fucking fish swimming around in there!
cars will be floating, along with the ghosts and airborne diseases unleashed by this horrific storm. stay tuned or drown with the ghosts.
Those are unusually large fish.
They did this same animation a few days ago…
Wow!! That truly is next level!
Aside from being cool as fuck to look at it also must very effective way to make people realize the dangers in situations seeing it so graphicly
Wow, cool! Thanks for the repost.
It’s a great tactic! Many people have a hard time picturing risk scenarios they haven’t experienced before. We’re visual creatures – and hopefully this green screen magic helped to convince people to evacuate and stay safe.
When does this game come out?
wow I never knew what 9 feet looked like until I saw this CGI.
After going through Harvey the one thing this video really doesn’t show you is how fast that can happen. One moment the street and ditches are filling up the next thing you know 30 mins later its at your front door. I was lucky and only got 3 feet, I have no desire to find out what 6 to 9 would have been like.
Rtx looks so good!
She should marry the Tech person who designed this green screen magic. It just launched her career into the clouds.
What’s even real
This would have made people in the 1980’s shit bricks
Makes me want a VR experience like this.
With graphics like that, pretty soon we won’t even need real hurricanes
I was expecting a tech guy coming in throwing a bucket of water at her. My mind is a weird place to live in.
Am I the only one here that thinks this is utterly ridiculous? Especially for a category 1/2 hurricane? It’s certainly impressive but is it necessary?
“You can see there’s fish floating around in here.”
DAMN!
you should check out the one they made on tornadoes a while back.
The whole time I was expecting another Weather Channel hurricane failure..
This however is pretty damn cool.
It’s not entirely necessary, but it does convey a message and is neat to look at to look at
Surprising lack of turds and plastic for seawater.
I especially like the Hot Wheels bike.
Even the Weather Channel is fear-mongering.
yes yes yes but what was the ACTUAL 1/2 ft ?
Obviously the best place to be in this video is aboard the kids three wheeled speeder. Wheelie waves everywhere!
Wow. Awesome work weather channel!
Yeah i’ve seen [the same demo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q01vSb_B1o0) with the dude with the blue windbreaker, scary stuff.
You guys giving the weather channel a break cause this is cool Tech and because some people are stupid and don’t evacuate when they should. But let’s be real, the weather channel is a piece of shit network that sensationalizes weather and feeds off of tragedy.
I remember watching it growing up and slowly watched the shift from what appeared to be genuine reporting to journalists with boners at bad weather.
I’m not sure if they just hired people really into storms or this is the result of 24/7 weather reporting.
Maybe both.
This right here is an excellent method of communicating the dangers of this. A lot of people are visual learners. This does an excellent job of relaying the impact.
[Hmm…](https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/9fe3pf)
That’s one powerful tidesage
Wow haven’t seen any of these, thanks for sharing! Upvote to you
On one hand, showbizzy & corny AF. On the other, maybe they’ll get through to some of the most stubborn.
Fun fact, this was rendered in real time using the Unreal game engine: https://motherboard.vice.com/amp/en_us/article/7xjv9x/the-weather-channel-using-unreal-engine-to-show-hurricane-florence
Oh shit, you know it’s bad when the fish start to show up at 9ft.
“if it gets to 9 feet you need to go…” Um, swim where?
Actualy thats not a greenscreen those are augmented reality graphics that are tracked thru the cranes motion with the camera.
Jesus Christ! She’s Moses!
So this is what HBO’s CGI team does in the offseason. No wonder it’s taking so long for the last season
Wasn’t it the same company that produce [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cODBQqaGTw) segment for the
Weather Channel explaining the formation and effects of tornadoes ?
now I know – if I find myself in 9 feet of water during a hurricane, I should almost definitely get out
Fuck evacuation, we should be creating more grey circles.
Instead of sending your reporters into weather war zones just green screen them into it.
I think they’re largely overstating the number of large wooden boxes that exist in most neighborhoods.
On the plus side, breaking them might provide valuable loot for your survival!
Things like this make me glad I live in a desert.
That’s the same graphics that were posted with the male weather person like two days ago.
They’ve been using these various 3D systems for a few years now, the last few like this have definitely gotten better looking.
Here is one example: https://weather.com/storms/winter/video/beware-of-ice-on-the-roof
another: https://www.tvtechnology.com/news/how-the-weather-channel-virtually-destroyed-its-studio
This was literally just on the front page with a guy commentating it yesterday. Can I post the one tomorrow with a different host?
What the heck is the budget of weather reporting that they can make that???
Idk, she seemed pretty safe.
That was genuinely fucking awesome. It gave me a weird feeling when that water first rose up around her.
They obviously consulted Charlton Heston for this.
All you need to do is stand on the side of the street where the water isn’t allowed to go. No problem!
She’s a water bender!!!
Wow Danm!
If only they were as good at audio sync.
Every time I see something like this I think “wow, that’s amazingly cool real-time generated graphics, technologically we’ve come far”
I also think that anyone that doesn’t know their own height and can’t mentally visualise what 6 feet of water will mean for their 5’5″ body is perhaps watching too much TV and not doing enough heading to high ground….
She must be pretty petite
Someone cross post this to confused boners
Yeah, they’ve been doing this a lot lately, adding CGI graphics.
Next level weather forecast ? The weather girl looks cute, too. ?
Made using Unreal Engine 4.
[UE4 + Weather Channel](https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/the-weather-channel-taps-the-future-group-to-provide-revolutionary-mixed-reality-capabilities?sessionInvalidated=true)
She’s a waterbender. Damn.
She should be wearing boots I think.
The teaser trailer for the /r/outside fall update looks sick
That’s some Tony Stark shit right there.
the tornado one was cool
Who would’ve thought a circle could protect you from more than just sea bears.
Is she northern or southern water tribe?
Get out? I don’t know, that circle seems pretty safe.
If you get one of those grey circle things you’ll be alright
Great work of weather channel.
Yeah its cool but she can only do it during the full moon when her bending is strongest
she’s hot
I think that the Netherlands are the ones who invented this kind of technology
This is the future ladies and gentlemen, we are living in the future
ELI5: How does a car float? I understand most model bodies are some kind of plastic, but there’s still tons of metal in cars AND the cab isn’t exactly “air tight” to hold the car afloat. Is there just enough air before it sinks?
Fucking YouTube man, gigabit fiber connection to a tier 1 provider, video buffering nicely then stops, right as an ad tries to play, ad plays in beautiful crisp 1080p, then handshakes back to the OC which fails to resume and play.
Thanks for the amazing coding, now to go block Ads with Piehole.
I had already seen this (as a repost), I hoped by ‘next level’ the water would suddenly breach her protective bubble and she’d be dramatically swept away.
Cool graphical representation, but this title is a little too uncomfortably /r/hailcoporate for me
The holodeck to is real!
Wouldve been more realistic if that drawer came flying out of the water and hit her lol
But in all honesty= this really puts shit into perspective
>If you find yourself here, you need to get out.
Wrong, if you find yourself there, youre fucked and best start praying to which ever god is to your liking. XD
it sure is great visual aid, it helped me figure out that she is an overgrown midget 😉
But you’re safe inside the circle.
OK. But what was the real storm surge like? Was it anywhere close to that?
BBC even used the clip.
I watched this live, in a bar, and started laughing maniacally
Did she just part the seas?
This is a game changer
I’m a bit disappointed. I wanted to see a shark push through the water like it was going to eat her.
Holy Moses!
Let’s see if every subreddit I follow will repost this at least 5 times
That is the most effective illustration I’ve ever seen to explain why it is so imperative that people pay attention to the evacuation orders. That made me nervous and I’m in Pittsburgh.
I couldn’t figure out how her top and bottom lips didn’t need to touch each other when she said the letter P.
Brought to you by the same channel that showed the reporter faking it
I think this video has been on every thread on Reddit.
While i think this is really cool, the problem with TWC or any other news org saying anything and everything to get views is that the next time a Cat 4 comes ashore that really is devastating, no one will pay attention.
The youtube channel Node has a handful of VR video game videos where they came up with a setup like this using a vive controller to be a camera connected to a real camera in a greenroom so they could sync the environments and put the person playing literally into the game. It was the coolest thing I’ve seen so far with VR and they were the first ones I saw doing it. [Here’s a video you should absolutely check out if you liked this video.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D04YQ4rvLnk)
2:45 for the crazy stuff
Amazing! I bet those weather veterans from the 1970’s are like…….C’mon…really? I had a chalkboard.
This is actually pretty cool.
Thanks, Weather Channel! Doin us a service
Okay now this is the best use of a green screen I’ve ever seen.
Great visual, but was that really necessary? It’s not hard to imagine 3 ft, 6 ft, and 9 ft of water or know that it’s a bad think.
I’m really impressed with that. 426745383
