Midi driven CG - Laser Glass Piano By VJ Chico

This is my first experimental Midi driven CG.

This animation does not run in real time, it taken around 52 hours and 30 minutes rendering in 2 PC's, without the modeling and programming time.

5401 frames
4.984 MB finished(without audio)

Also youtube destroyed my video :(
The images were clean and sharp

Did the music drive the animation or the other way around?  I'm looking for someone who can drive graphics using midi data (like the animusic guys did).

Hello friend...

The music drives the animation.

I created a software to receive the midi data and generate the animation...

But I like much more to drive real devices with midi, take a look in my real animusic videos.

I do some animating, and no matter how long it takes to render, it is always worth it (within reason).

Maybe better modeling technicks and a newer computer helps. This video taken so long to render.

@zeratul575 ... thought? Maybe... but I'm very bad at 3D modeling... I would need some classes! I'm very busy in these days, I dont plan to make such classes soon. Thanks for your post ;)

@ChicoDaRave have u thought of working for animusic?

[ChicoDaRave]

Thanks!

It is the idea, to make many instruments, maybe bizarre instruments, all playing together... But I will need a better computer to do.

nice and clever to combine the midi data with the 4d models and to combine it into a full motion video.

Nice one

What if you combine classic notes into instruments?

Sounds like 3d orchestra ;-)
