This is a vid that was supposed to be a test to see if my clouds looked good and if they reflect correctly on a reflective surface.
Coz anybody who has worked with volumetric and VERY detailed clouds in max with PyroCluster will know that it can kill render times into 1min30sec per scene just to have clouds, and more if they have to be reflected.
A simple test vid... that got out of hand.
Then I added the biped coz it just looked too empty.
The I added the mirror and the pose.
Then I added the other guy.
Then I added more cameras
Then etc etc etc, eventually I optimized the render time down to 11sec per frame.
Then it escalated (lol, escalated MORE) to After Effects and more editing, music and the logo, (thanks to Kramer, I tried out his method, but got a bit too laborious for this simple task, so I made a quicker version for my needs.) and tron-ish filter etc...
And after everything... I felt stupid for not flipping the texture filter and Anti-aliasing switches...
Woulda added 10sec render time per frame, but 21seconds render time per frame isnt bad eh?
Anyway,

All elements made within 3DsMax (except for mr.biped, duh) rendered with finalRender, and touched up with After Effects.
