A friend showed me this without telling me that it was all animated. When I found out I almost didn't believe him. Then he showed me another video made with official fotage taken from the ISS. I think it's pretty amazing that this animated video looks so much more real than the one from ISS.
If this is a file on my computer and I'll try to render this, my computer is probably going to slap me really hard on the face and ask me "Are you mad?!".
Vanity? The best painters and sculptors in the world try to replicate real-art. No one tells a painter to just take a picture instead... This guy does it so perfectly that you say he may as well have just filmed real life- what a compliment to him.
Unlike many others, I for one am glad to see such a true example of 3d modeling masterpieces, and i think many of us here truly o appreciate the talent Alex Roman has showed us.
@Milkshakman I always thought the name was referring to the letters of CHAOSGROUP.... Third being A and seventh being R... Initials AR = Alex Roman....
Everyday I find myself saying, "This is the most incredible thing Ive ever seen!", but this. This just takes the cake. This video is so beautiful! So Awe-inspiring! So surreal, and even a little depressing! You are are the Picasso of CGI. I cannot stress how incredible this is. This movie got me interested in architecture! This is not just a short film! This is a experience! Congrats! Congrats! Infinate congrats to you!
Artists like recognition - granted. But to say this is a vanity project... I cannot agree.
Any advance in any field could be simplified as that, then... Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, Mozart, they too were virtuous individuals who leaped way above what their peers in their time could do.
Did they do it for vanity? Maybe in a part of themselves yes, but I'd be more willing to believe they did it out of passion for their work.
we saw this in class. he didn't tell us anything about it. when he said it was all CGI, my mouth dropped, along with about 80% of the rest of the class. pure epicness if i ever saw it!
"Alex Roman uses 3DS Max and VRay for Rendering, Photoshop for Texture work, AfterEffects for Compositing and Color Grading and Adobe Premiere for Edition"
dieses video ist so unglaublich. 287.784 haben es auf youtube bisher gesehen. das ist verdammt wenig, wenn man bedenkt, dass hier in die kamera starrende japanische mädchen mehrere millionen klicks bekommen.
@dogboy0912 To create this level of realism in a cg film takes a lot of talent. Sure a studio could do it with some hard work, but for one man to do all of this, it is absolutely stunning. It is said that this fil is what set the bar for future cg films. It is rare to see films with this level of realism and detail, and even more rare for the entire thing to be made by one person.
Howard Roark would shed tears of joy if he could see this. An amazing artistic AND technical achievement. Can't compare it to anything else I've seen.
@themiff dude everything here is nothing but simple objects and what really makes it wow is the camera perspective, lighting, materials, textures and the rest is done in editing softwares to give it that extra "shine" to it... it just all takes allot of planning and messing with camera angles to get a really good look
Excellent.... simply perfect work... Alex Roman took 1 year and a half to do this video. This work in the movie industrie costs a fortune... and sometimes looks like the "Inception" movie. Outstanding work
This makes avatar look like it was created by a retarded blind kid. No offence to James Cameron but that's how I see it now.
