  • is the best video i seen of boats in 3d. Very good. Whith which program do you do this proyect?. Thank you.

  • @oscarcillo100 Thanks! I used Maya 8.5, After Effects and Photoshop. I did a few elements with Realflow and 3DS Max.

  • water is nicely animated, but empire: total war's ships look more realistic - and its realtime to boot!!!!!!

  • @Griesmayer Take it up with the director (lol), I wanted people on fire diving into the water...with sharks!...

  • What is the title of this documentary? Apparently the link goes to the site of the company responsible for the CGI, but there are clips there of a full episode. What is its title?

  • Honestly I don't know what the title of the doc became or how the animation was eventually used. "TRAFALGAR" was the working title at the time, though.

  • Someone make the bloody movie already. There are enough subplots and individual stories surrounding the battle to create an epic film. So many possiblities..But then again, those who appreciate the era of sailing warships do not make up your typical movie going crowd.

  • cuantos dias te demoraste haciendo eso

  • te quedo bien men muy bien

  • Its incredible. I see this video another and another time and its really incredible. You have to do effects to some hollywood film.

  • Congratulations! What an excellent video.

  • You have a great understanding of cinematic timing.

  • Wow, the shots hitting the rear of the french ship at 0:30 ro 0:40 looks amazing... wish they would make a great game with ship warfare in this era, Napoleon Total War didn't do it for me sadly :-/

  • Those close-ups looked too real. Good job!

  • Well done! Does anyone know of a video here (or anywhere) that shows a good tactical description of the entire battle?

  • very cool mate.
