SPACE STATION IN ORBIT AROUND PLANET EARTH - ANIMATION HD

[shellybirdy]

brilliant video

[juki0h]

ah fuck it! lets just build death stars and space fleets, then go and attack other planets, LETS CONQUER THE UNIVERSE! FUCK ALL THEM ALIENS UP! SHOW EM WHOS BOSS!

[pliosaurus]

This will never happen, not in a million years, not in a 1,000 years. Partly because humanity won't last that long.

[FrostbitexP]

@pliosaurus

Who are you to judge how long humanty will survive.

[openvue]

IBM(n-1) = HAL, lol!

[digital1970]

So many design flaws and inconsistencies. What function does the iris that we see opening in the beginning (0:25) serve? The outer ring rotates while the six transport tubes connecting to it don't rotate and apparently pass right through the ring, but there is no space for the tunnel to pass through in the rotating ring. And then the outer rings center mass splits open? WTH?! Props for making a fun video, but minus several thousand for any design cohesion.

[XtraxLondon]

@digital1970 Yeah but what you didn't know is it's made with multiphasic chrystaline anti-matter so you can do all that shit without any worries!

[digital1970]

@XtraxLondon Oh, well why didn't you say so in the first place? LOL :))

[FireWarrior38]

@XtraxLondon If it was made out of anti-matter, then it would have exploded at the first touch of normal matter, e.i. space debris and if the entire thing was made out of anti-matter, then when it exploded, it would take out both Earth and the Moon. If its as big as I think it is, then the shock wave from the blast may hit Mars and Venus. To put it straight, you didn't do your research.

[rabin66]

@digital1970 relax ! would you ? it's a concept/artist depiction

on the side note, does anyone have an idea what materials could be used (from what we have now) to build this thing ?

[RayDandy]

@rabin66  asteroid belt

[whitiedave]

@rabin66 half the moon ;)

[bagofbarn]

@digital1970 suck a COCK

[FrostbitexP]

@bagofbarn

stop being so immature kid.

[AndrewAngelScar]

@digital1970 Some stanford torus designs had an internal structure that would rotate within a static outer shell so some of the odd perspectival elements would make sense in that respect. The iris door and disappearing center of of the torus on the other hand would be highly disconcerting under normal circumstances.

[serjito87]

i rather prefer a super spaceship that can travel super fast so we can found more shyt

[RayDandy]

@serjito87 LOL !!!!!!!

[BansheeVomit]

Nice work! Could you please tell me which software you used to create it? I've been told Bryce 7 and Vue are good starter programs for animation.

[WigParty]

@BansheeVomit Hi thanx for the comments - I use anything that will give me an effect basically - I have used Bryce, Vue is capable of amazing things but crashes a lot and is too slow. Cinema 4d is probably the easiest to learn and After Effects is the quickest at rendering something out that looks good. I haven't tried Maya altho am told it is the daddy of them all. Lightwave, Blender and 3ds Max are all very popular options too. Alan

[XtraxLondon]

@BansheeVomit BTW there are more of my videos at vimeo(dot)com/xtrax/videos

[drjdmm]

lol: 99 bottles of beer on the wall 99 bottles of beer, take a few down pass em around 31 bottles of beer on the wall.  great vid,made me wanna say a joke ;)

[WigParty]

@drjdmm Hey thanx for the comment and joke!

[llBartll]

Wow, the lights and the textures are just amazing! Added it to my favorites.

[XtraxLondon]

@llBartll Hey thanx - more of my stuff at vimeo(dot)com/xtrax/videos

[plasticbricks]

Hey XtraxLondon, where can I get a copy of your inspiring animation?

[XtraxLondon]

@plasticbricks I think it is downloadable from vimeo(dot)com/xtrax/videos but let me know if any problems

[DepressiveMindsband]

good job! 3ds max? blender? c4d? maya? lightwave??

[XtraxLondon]

@DepressiveMindsband c4d mostly - haven't had a chance to try maya yet - is it easy to understand?

[jewlzorjay]

This is a beautiful design, and i like the way that its has similarities to existing satellites etc. good work.

If your inspired by this, then do not keep it contained. your inspiration may inspire another person who will actualy build this thing.

[XtraxLondon]

@jewlzorjay Thank you! Alan

[dgreatunknown]

Like the texture

[XtraxLondon]

@dgreatunknown which texture did you like - there are a few in there!

[KOZMIKELTIKING]

HELL YES! THIS IS WHAT THE ISS CAN BE ONE DAY! LET NO ONE STAND IN OUR WAY! WE MUST COLONIZE SPACE NOW!!!!!!!!!! \m/

[FrostbitexP]

@KOZMIKELTIKING

Well technically the iss can never become this because...you know...

Nasa is disbanding it within 10-20 years...

[Pandoranage4101]

Nice. Would be great to have you in the mix at Chronos.

[XtraxLondon]

@Pandoranage4101 I would love to be in the mix at Chronos - what is it?

[violine777]

WOW !!! Splendide video !! Merci !!

[LtSurge659]

This is one of the best animations I've seen, and Also Sprach Zarathustra is a wonderful addition.

[100percentTwilight]

wow... Thumbs up!!!!!!1 Great job, keep it up :)

[Polird]

Great animation! The station looked amazing, but for the planet try NASA blue marble images. You can get huge ones that will make the planet look much more detailed. Don't worry about the people criticizing it, they're just jealous that they can't do the same.

[matthewauchenbach]

@Polird

well spoken!

[matthewauchenbach]

@Polird

Hey I think I see that jealousy now.(down below)

[jdht3496]

This is one of the most beautiful things ive seen in my whole life Oh My ... God

[nicholaswright2006]

Interesting how it opened up, but I think that's why people are calling it boring--they were expecting it to do something after that.

REALLY good job in animation though.

[Kamemwati]

I think it looks pretty good, but I must admit that the planet (mostly the clouds) kinda destroys the view :/ But I like the station.

[lf9000]

Hey i think its pretty cool.

[XtraxLondon]

Wow! Guys why don't you do something interesting instead of being so negative - I was just having fun while teaching myself something new in the process of creating this for myself and thought it might help others to grow by sharing it here. Sorry you found it so offensive and tedious! Have a nicer day tomorrow. x

[jdht3496]

@XtraxLondon Man as i said this is one of the most beautiful stuff ive seen in my life and im 14 years man... I mean this is just something you want as your Wallpaper or something I say Good Job!! Fuck em' haters they are jelous cuz your good and they arent go look at their clips there isnt anything better

[cycc1111]

@XtraxLondon indeed

[katanaburner]

@XtraxLondon I think you did an awesome job. What's that zooming by in the tubes though. People?

[matthewauchenbach]

@XtraxLondon

well said!Some people are just to prideful of their own work that jealousy blinds them immediately.

[225USAboy]

@XtraxLondon

its a really cool animation, but i have a question though.

if this was real, what would you estimate for the amount of persons on board?

[C3P0meetsData]

@XtraxLondon Sorry, this has nothing to do with this comment you posted, but I have a question. Are those little specks flying through the tubes supposed to be people? or like, cars of some sort?

[Viz731]

900000000000000000000000000 dollers of waist in space, 900000000000000000000000000 dollars of waist, put one up blow one down, 900000000000000000000000000 dollars of waist in the space! ha ha sorry i love space exploration but heck this looks like a ton of waist

[notessimodude]

@Viz731 waste* dude. Saying a ton of waist makes it sound like somebody's fat.

[flashfith]

animation is meh , and the render is worse

[shadow13524]

cool but boring

[kip151]

neat
