[henk19henk]

with programs did you use ?

[mourastudios]

good work!

[grayvickfilms]

Awesome! Could you share how you did the wireframe render an :31 in Lightwave?

[AliasUndercover]

Absolutely beautiful. I just wish I knew what the hell was actually going on...

[asfbi]

the acting is good mostly the cgi is so intense what program for the credits after effects?

[freakface666666]

the special effets are pretty basic and simple. by that i mean the greenscreening and stuff. the cg is the impressive part.

[MediocreFilms]

I just love this.

[daveandtom]

i am a big fan

[rsman169]

Why is everyone named Michael a movie director?

[AAEuser]

man this is great! I love the camera movement. I am an After Effects Compositor working on my first feature film right now. No CG though. I'd love to do 3d work like this.

[TheCyberFX]

hey please give us a tutorial for any part of that awesome video

[hellonj10]

ur really cool

to do this lmao

awesome job dude=D

[TheAppliantologist]

Nice work.

[MakingMovesMajor]

I want to learn SFX so badly now

If he can do it I can

[myblackberrypen]

wow

[carlosreyes11]

Your FX effects are second to no one !

[thewalruseaters]

that was cool - what is this?

[onjoFilms]

Really nice work, totally awesome, you know your stuff, just one major glaring discrepancy and the was the length or radius of the swinging ball and distance to the girl. Outside of that pretty smooth.

[Paint]

More behind the scenes would be appreciated. :]

[Benimation]

Wow. I use Maya and After Effects too, but I'm not that good at it (yet)

[loicdhaen]

maybe some tutorials plz

[CamilleTowe]

Oohers, this is great! Show more Will! What a hottie!

[RDJim]

more of this background stuff would be great. nice film.

[rackfocus]

This is awesome. Please give us more FX run through!

[xis10ce]

gotta tell u that that short was beautiful

[uskafighter]

Dude! That was F'ing amazing! Great stuff. And as short and simple as the story was, it was very entertaining. And Greg was hilarious.

[GrimReaperGamer]

He probably used AE and 3DS Max.

[battlestarvfx]

AE Yes, max no. 3D app is Lightwave3D.

[secpd]

It's amazing that something like this can be done and put on youtube, yet so many TV shows and B-movies still look like crap.

[ryan50ryan]

well, its not about where the product ends up. the quality depends on who makes it and what they used to make it.

[NDKid16]

dude make a tutorial or something *.*

[NDKid16]

you did this alone wow

[mynameisgracey]

great job really awesom

[Wand2Fishes]

eye candy

[CityOfSheffieldFilms]

Brilliant. I just checked out your 'worst date ever' video as well, very funny. Cheers!

[WorldofGN]

my mind was blown it was way to good especially for a youtube video

[Poobsterdood]

Wow man this is incredible. 5 stars buddy. Hope to see more in the future!

[peterbriers]

Nice work! Very nice work. Verrrry nice work. :)

[bigtat1]

what program did you use this looks hella bad ass

[battlestarvfx]

Lightwave3D and AfterEffects

[CinemaGaming]

Incredible, you did an amazing job.

[HeadMan12345]

hey if your lucky and the right people see the video you could be funded into making a film based on this concept. I wish ^.^ but thats like 1/1,000,000 xD

[Mynameisnotooo]

Regen was beautiful. Personally I think the highway's lanes were a bit thin, as if a regular car can just barely fit, but I'm not sure if the roads in the US are like that or not, so I don't know if that really counts as a flaw.

When the camera was on the ground and you could see the little pebbles and such, it looked VERY fake. I'm not sure what does it, maybe the pebbles are too blocky, but it just looked wrong.

Other than that, Regen was awesome. I wish it was longer though.

[JoserPwndU]

So what software did you uise for the animation?

[CensoredSubmarine]

@JoserPwndU probably 3ds max

[battlestarvfx]

Wrong. It's Lightwave3D. You can tell by the wireframe render screen . The cyan wire is a default lightwave wireframe color.

Great stuff michael!

[CensoredSubmarine]

@battlestarvfx I said probably you dick, I wasn't saying It was definitely 3Ds max

[battlestarvfx]

I was just saying you were wrong. whats the big deal. youtube is short for text area, don't take it the wrong way. besides, too many people assume everything is max or maya or xsi and I am kind of sick of it.

[Darrknox]

WRONG. You can make the wireframe color any color you want.

[battlestarvfx]

Wrong? No. That's lightwave - and I said DEFAULT color. What part of that did you miss to confuse you?

Sure you can change the wireframe color, but that's the default color scheme...

Now what is your problem again? or are you just looking to start a fight because you suck atutodesk cock?

[Darrknox]

@battlestarvfx

Atutodesk?

[battlestarvfx]

the evil people who own 3 of the "major" apps in the industry after gobbling them up to stiffle competition. 3 major apps later and they still can't get it right.

[Darrknox]

or the common misspelling of autodesk

[hobocrandle]

the scenery looks a hell of a lot like the road just outside of vegas. great job man!

[chinalikethecountry]

[barakuda1111]
