[pwngravis]

words cannot describe how perfectly everything was made. From the animation to the textures, models, lighting... you should be making game cinematics and movies

[Timos153]

omg very good work

did you make it aone or with other people

It is very very good with what program did you make that ? :)

[4opProductions]

Great work.

[peterlikesthis]

[tokensoftokens]

Really good stuff. Where did you study? or are you just extremely well practiced?

[The3DFreak3D]

I cant dicripe this with Words!

[pramodkabadi24]

super !!!!!! no words just awesome :)

[GFOgravedigger]

What can i say................. AMAZING.

[IteMaledicti]

this video gives me absolute chills in the best way.

I've watched it quite a few times and I get the same reaction.

A self taught animator with this much talent obviously has something to teach the rest of us.

I'm gonna keep watching/subscribe to your channel. Keep up the great work.

You're more of an inspiration than you probably know

[candyman3]

ah dude!!! sick style. have studied 3d almost a year soon , and im far away from this :P great reel, keep up the good work

[Frankrs3d]

good work. what tools do you use?

[Samimations]

how do you achieve this screen glow look? if that makes any sense...

[mish308]

brilliant!!!!!!!actualy hav no words to describe ua work!!!!

[1337Quartz]

DAMN!!! Having a hard time believing just one guy made this

[dusselmann]

very nice

[krimzonstudios]

wow, this is amazing work.

[faizurr92]

NICE ONE DUDE.

[tobit12]

OMG 0:39 see like Warcraft III its ARTHAS! and the frostmourne (:

[minnlucifer666]

@tobit12 athas aint bald

[tobit12]

@minnlucifer666 Because then if it would Arthas, and charge copyright

[BrenAGC]

I love how heavy you make everything feel, you add such weight to all of the animations and it really intensifies things.

[dadito83st]

At first i couldnt believe that you made this video... but then i saw your previews and this made me realize that maybe you have talent... And a lot of talent! But just tell me something... How did you made the backrounds: I mean the trees, clouds, dust, cause 3ds max is not the best option to do this. Can you please upload a video making you a render of a single frame and later edition in after effect? Great and awesome job by the way!!!!

[blackbonexxx]

no words to describe it...you even simulate the skin?:S amazing...really...I'm modeling a character now but I'm kindda new and I'm making it just for fun...but my computer cant handle the hair simulation with more that 10000 hairs lool and it looks a little awful closed up...so I'm trying to make hair maps xD but can I ask..what are your computer specks?

[rlawlsgh]

holy shit. you are amazing.

[Ashran92]

:O Awesome animation! you r good at your job, keeep doing this fantastic animations!

[DJrock888]

Good work! you should apply to Blur Studios

[TeeRavGainer]

simply. amazing

[Fuglvn]

Awesome animation, things like this is what separates the pros from the crowd, keep up the amazing work.

[johnsutubacc]

great!

[BodomBeachGary]

wow. dude your work is outstanding. keep it up :)

[xcstacy2]

Speachless...

[Kingzylo]

Truly awe inspiring.

[MonkeyWithKnives]

You're amazing

[Fwuzeem]

Freaking awesome, how did one guy do this? It must have taken an age

[axilmar]

Extremely cool. Just one very minor problem: the gravity seems incorrect: it seems too easy for the humans to carry those swords and shields, as if they were made out of paper.

This is a classic problem in all animations though. Still, it's mighty impressive.

[ecod7r]

Hey dude, excellent work.

You need to do something like a short film no more than 10mins of non-stopping actions, quality story and awsome animation, think about Half life universe mixed with Halo.

[ichbinpwnzilla]

Very powerful and very mystifying

I love the alternate reality in this short clip

[joolicker]

you are now my idol!!! :D:D:D

[hizzlemafizzle]

wow so well done, i love the animations

i see what look slike a ton of influences from various video games but i think they should put you on the final fantasy art team, i got that epic moving-forward sort of feel from it, really great work imho

[Harpreet06]

sounded like music from kingdom hearts or final fantasy

[Naregkal]

Thank you very much everyone for your kind words and feedback! they are much appreciated! hopefully in the near future i will have new work to show and it'll always be a pleasure to hear your feedback again! until then all the best wishes to you all and thank you once again!

(for those of you who have emailed me i will surely read them and will be glad to help or answer the ones who had questions as well).

[Ameyaz1]

wow dude,Splendid work !!!!

[stfudonnie]

So beautiful. Can't believe this is the work of just one person

[LastEmperor28]

You need to upload it in 720p at lest. The 360p doesn't do your amazing and breath-taking work justice. Seriously, I just came.

[DemascoNY]

oh my god...this is incredible.

[Swizzler121]

only things I didn't like about the video is it was too brown, and did it have to cut to black every few seconds?

[yakooza]

Barev!

[Shawkab]

Why does this only have 17k views? this is true talent..

[supergnar97]

Dude, I am a recent audio grad from an art school. Your demo reel was by far, the best I've ever seen from an animation student! Wow!

[supergnar97]

Dude, I am a recent audio grad from an art school. Your demo reel was by far, the best I've ever seen from an animation studio! Wow!

[liykevin]

where did the audio come from? great work btw

[medmondsr]

holy shit

[LordQuorad]

Absolutely amazing. I want to see more!

[DrStrangelove1987]

he should reupload this in HD

[skinu]

Wow. Just wow.

I am certainly not in a position to give you advice whatsoever. But I would really like to see your talent to on to make some great cultural work instead of just being sold out to a market that mass produces trite for the intellectually and culturally challenged majority of humanity. I personally would really love to see you team up with the guys who did the City17 Half Life tribute vids, or do your own work -pick an indie script or team you feel passionate about.

[ThePolarised]

@skinu because it's only art if it's indie and unsuccessful...

[skinu]

@ThePolarised

I didn't say it wasn't art, try to reply with a relevant comment that actually addresses the things I said.

[PoochDoobie]

How much would you charge for animation for a five minute music video?

[CosmicKrakatoa]

Superb! Gravity exists in your universe. Your characters lumber under its pull. Bravo!

[CRUZHERM]

nice

[ZeddysZ]

Just start your own company already! Number of people in staff count: ONE. You're your own employer and employee.

Like a Boss.

[kingjessev11]

You're amazing.

[ccaballe]

epic work my friend.

[234234234werrrrrrr]

holy shite you have talent!

[Ventcore]

That's really freaking awesome dude. Well done.

[kara366]

Ok, this looks incredible.

[KewitBlog]

Whaaaat! You got some skills!

[cavephar]

well done

[falsetruth1212]

Definitely should apply to Blizzard for a job, this is amazing, and looks like something their team made. I'm stunned. Great work, keep it up!

[sittingduckss]

This video seriously need more than 17k views. And HQ ;)

[clebo99]

Wow...I try doing stuff in Maya and I may now have to quit knowing I'll never approach this level of expertise. Well done.

[regaliachau]

Holy Shit, that is all.

[Chidsuey]

Where did you go to school, or train and educate yourself to use this software?

[waterdude125]

Holy shiz you gooood.It's like blizzard made it except...1 person!!u should make a video game :D.

[youngsir414]

amazing. seriously

[lil0egy0kid]

My eyes jizzed.

[Rebel4Life69]

well done sir.

[Kloster18]

With your skills you will have no trouble finding a job wherever you want.

This is so much like a Warcraft cinematic, im sure blizzard would love to have you.

[theschnoo]

This is so great, I love your style and I hope that your talent doesn't go to waste in the future, just fantastic! Good luck!

[JammoBlammo]

I'd be excited if I could draw a single frame of your work in 2D on paper. Your work is amazing, and you'll go far in this world with your skills.

[nicensofttp]

epic. i want you to be the lead animator when im a director of big films...(ill contact you in fifteen years lol)

[SphincterJuice]

Get a job at Blizzard and make some sick Diablo 3 trailers kthx.

[VexT916]

This was awesome for an independent work! And it takes how many software engineers to do a similar CGI reel for one of Blizzard's game compared to OP's personal work alone? One too many over-paid staff, thats wassup! Keep it upP mayne!

[jasiothemity]

Blizzard needs you.

[youcreatea]

ill

[rayshinn1]

Hey, just want you to to know that I think your work is amazing! Hope to see your name on a big movie someday soon :P

Cheers.

P.S ಠ_ಠ

[FriScho]

This is AWESOME, I hope you get a great job in the industrie and make tons of money! You are really really good!

[GManPerfected]

amazing job

[PontFX]

Jesus man, blizzard should offer you a job

[maxedwolf]

How long did it take you from concept to final product?

[hrdubb]

That's simply jaw-dropping, coupled with the fact you solo'd all this. Keep up the awesome work!

[davidmomparler]

Dude... thats amazing

[kidred72]

Awesome stuff. My only critique is the walking scenes- the shoulders and waists are too stiff and don't relay the weight shift after each step. Visually tho, it's spectacular.

[MBFencer]

@kidred72 Probably because the guy who was walking was wearing bulky plates of armor, I think it looks great, and that he took in that particular detail to make his walk a bit more awkward due to the weight.

[krazyshane]

Better quality?

[labsalono]

With as few letters as possible: u r awsum

[imalumberjak]

Hey man, I'm not too into videogames but you still managed to really impress me with this video. You could get work anywhere with your skills. I'm looking forward to seeing work from you in the future.

[DatenshiZ]

Simply amazing

[TheDutchBarbarian]

make me a game... please

[srhabb]

How long did it take you to produce this?

[BazBuzinkum]

Astonishing art and visuals, but unfortunately by the end I felt it was almost great...like this stuff has all been seen before. Armor, rows of fighters, kings of stone and abandon pillars. All fine if you want a job doing what is out there now and has been out for a few years. I'd love to see you push to create subject matter that is entirely unexpected and original and really blow people's minds.

[15Protech]

the guy at 0:48 looks like he has the world of warcrafts lich king armor and sword, very very similar atleast

[KenIan91]

so when's the movie or game out?

[randOmazing]

how long did this take?

[Tairoku]

Reminds me of the stuff Blizzard puts out in Starcraft and Warcraft.

[lebello]

dude did you animate and texture and rig it too!?!?

[GetMerkedHD]

this guy needs to put his best models at the beginning

[frankytap]

That was amazing!

[Alexrst]

Really great! A lot of work, result is perfect!

[V10H4Z4RD]

Best Ive seen on here .

[whitescape]

great work!

where do you work? are you a freelancer? :)

[r2d2arfh]

Astonishing art.... inspiring for all who wants to become involved in the CGI Scene

[ShakingClumsy]

bald Arthas hahahaha

[Zrotten1]

MAKE A WHOLE ENTIRE MOVIE OUT OF THIS HOLY SHIT ANYONE HEAR "BLOCKBUSTER HIT!"

[TheFXGuy]

Are you a professional? If so, great work. If not, holy crap! You should be!

This is like an awesome mix of 300, LOTR, and Dragon Age.

[TEAMALSTARE]

awsome demo reel!

[DeXtmL]

This is impressive.

Can u upload an HD version?

[soulrunner66]

One of the most inspiring things I've seen in a long time.

[soulrunner66]

So fucking badass.

[iwanttoloveher]

what school did you go?????!!@@

[hazzard]

Oh and how long did it take to make this reel?

[hazzard]

First, Nice Reel!

I have a few questions.

How much experience have u had prior to this reel? Whats the specs of your computer? and how long did the render take?

[invincibleanand]

This is really an epic...Awesome work

[maxinheb]

tats a great job

[steellegacy]

Man you are awesome. best demoreel that i was see. since 2 years i watch your video again and again, ill try to do something for me as you work, a lot of inspiration in your work man. CONGRATULATIONS, hope to see some new too late

[k0l0mbian0]

my respect for you man, you are my hero... and i was not exaggerating here... I want to learn how to rig like that.. I would like to learn how to light and texture like that... and i will, for sure.. one day... i am self taught mostly... i buy books and learn like that... i guess my next step is dynamics and fluids... good job Mr. Kalenderian. I hope to see your name in the credits of a popular film or video game...

[Naregkal]

(continued from below)

I am currently working on some new work, when they are ready I will surely post them here, for it's always great to hear your feedback!

I thank everyone here! and most of you are already doing some great work, keep it up! Please be sure that i read and

receive all your mails and answer them mostly through mail as well as to as many as I can, my apologies if I was late to write any feedback

here on this list.

Thanks again!

All the best to you all!

[Naregkal]

Hello everyone, Thank you for your great feedback, they are truly appreciated.

Regarding some of your questions, yes everything in this reel was created and animated by myself alone

in a period of around 8 to 9 months of my spare time, with around 3 months spent on rendering and compositing alone, on my single workstation.

I used 3ds max with Splutterfish Brazil for rendering and after effects for compositing.

(continued up)..

[maxinheb]

@Naregkal  can i know ur system configuration plz?

[Protagonistism]

@Naregkal Well done, Well done. Haven't seen inspiring work for a while on Youtube. You truly have the skills

Best Lebanese 3D animation I've seen yet.

Is there any work in progress now? Cannot wait to see your next work.

P.S. Would you include your older works (The Wonderful World) to your channel?
