3d animation industrial design - product design of a 3d animated wind power generator that demonstrates wind power technology for an online 3d animation presentation, trade show exhibit and 3d computer animation video DVD. Anifex 3d creates high quality 3d animation for the industrial design, product design and wind power industries. Anifex 3d animations are created with the most powerful 3d software packages available 3d Studio Max and Maya. Anifex computer animation also uses Adobe products including After Effects and Sound Booth to complete the video editing and compositing of our 3d animation videos. The Evolution of Fire wind power 3d animation was created to demonstrate Anifex's 3d ability to market industrial design and product design. The entire 3d model was created in Maya so that the parts, gears, belts, wind blade, etc. actually move in sync with each other. This allowed the 3d animation to achieve the photo realistic 3d quality by all the parts performing their function correctly. Anifex felt that it was important to draw the viewer in and make the connection between the hypothetical caveman's first discovery of fire, which may have resulted from lightning hitting a tree and creating a spark. This connection was originally going to be created as a one cell cartoon that Anifex was going to place on the product design. As an afterthought, it was decided that it would have much more impact if a 3d animated character was used instead. The 3d character originally started out as a 3d poser model and was completely morphed into the finished version in mudbox. After the 3d morph in mudbox, the caveman 3d character went back into Maya for the final touches, including adding over a million particles of hair. The final 3d animation of the caveman scene was 3d rendered with four different lighting passes to achieve the realistic effect of the lightning crashing in the background and the fire flickering in the foreground. After Anifex had the 3d animated caveman sequence, there needed to be a clever way to make the 3d animation seamless between the caveman and 3d product design simulation. Anifex achieved this by using lighting effects that flash several times from dark to light, which gives the viewer the sense of lightning crashing. The product design simulation was also rendered in three different lighting passes to create the light, dark and wireframe 3d model. The entire 3d animation from concept to completion took 3 weeks, including render time.

  • im pretty new to 3d animation itself, and I was wondering if you rendered everything out with Mentalray because everything here looks pretty realistic. If you did render in mentalray, how long did the render take, since there is barely any pixelization, and you must've used some pretty high settings.

  • @kemuri123 Yes everything was rendered in Mental Ray. Average render per frame was about 6 minutes.

  • Impresive, I'm very new to 3d modeling and would like to know what program or programs did you use to get to this point. I'm just learning MAYA..???

  • We used Maya for the modeling and rendering.

  • This is a really interesting way to show your concept. I like the flow charts with the realistic animation to get the idea across. Nicely done.

  • great animation video
