**How to Create 3D Goian Splats: A Step-by-Step Guide**
1. **Introduction to 3D Goian Splats**:
– 3D Goian Splats are a popular and photorealistic method to convert videos of objects into 3D.
– Previously, creating these required a powerful graphics card and command prompt knowledge.
– Now, with the introduction of Paully’s 3D Goian Splat creator, the process is simplified and can be done on their website.
2. **Preparation**:
– Choose a location or object you want to capture. For this guide, the Arabian Desert was chosen, and objects like a camel, falcon, and buggy were used.
– Ensure you have a camera or smartphone capable of capturing high-quality videos or photos.
3. **Capturing Tips**:
– Videos can be converted into image sequences, which can be used for creating Goian Splats.
– For best results:
– Use a high resolution, preferably 4K.
– A good quality camera is recommended, but smartphones like the iPhone work well too.
– Use a wide lens to capture more detail quickly.
– Ensure ample lighting.
– Avoid panning, tilting, or zooming. Instead, move around the subject.
– For objects, circle them while keeping them centered. For environments, pretend there’s a central object and orbit around that imaginary point.
– Opt for low ISO, low aperture, and high shutter speed settings.
4. **Processing with Polyam**:
– If you’ve captured videos, convert them into image sequences using software like Premiere, Da Vinci, or Image Magic.
– Visit poly.cam and select “Create Capture” followed by “Create Goian Splat”.
– Upload your JPEG or PNG files and start the processing. This can take between 20 to 40 minutes.
5. **Reviewing the Results**:
– Once processing is complete, review the generated Goian Splat on poly.cam.
– Compare different scans to determine which methods yield the best results.
6. **Importing to Unreal Engine 5**:
– Download the Goian Splat in .p format from poly.cam.
– If you wish to use the Unreal Engine 5 plugin, refer to the linked video.
– Use the Metao plugin in Unreal Engine 5 for product visualization.
– Import the Goian Splat into Unreal Engine 5 using the 3D Goian plugin available on the Unreal Engine Marketplace.
– Adjust settings and backgrounds as desired.
7. **Conclusion**:
– 3D Goian Splats offer a revolutionary way to create 3D models from videos.
– With the tools and methods available today, anyone can create their own 3D Goian Splats easily and for free.
8. **Call to Action**:
– Encourage viewers to try creating their own 3D Goian Splats.
– Remind viewers to subscribe for more content and tutorials.
