Dali's Video (3D Animation by Dan Buckland)

This is my final year project as part of my Multimedia Design & Technology degree at Brunel University. I set myself the goal of bringing life and movement to my favourite Salvador Dali paintings using CGI. I used 3ds Max for the moedlling and animation and post-production was done in After Effects. This is my first ever attempt at 3D animation and I had to learn a lot of the skills I needed as I went along.

REALLY cool .. maybe add a sound track (U can use a Youtube stock track) ??

[danbuckland]

Thanks a lot. A soundtrack is something I want to add, it will definitely be something surreal, not music but maybe ambient sounds, high pitch tones. I took some of my inspiration from the ring video in 'The Ring' movie so a soundtrack along these lines was always something I intended to do. Unfortunately the deadline did not allow me the time to do the audio justice. Thanks for the comment.
