I bloody love this video mate, and now i love the lost levels through it.. what software did you use?

[Eyebath]

@petebutler1983 Thanks! Modelled everything in Silo, then animated in Maya. Edited in Sony Vegas.

I think the only way to describe that music video is truly professional. I had never heard of The Lost Levels - but I can see that you not only put a great deal of time and effort into this work, but that it really shows. I agree with EpicFishFingers, that if they make a music video, they would find it very difficult to top this. Well done!

[Eyebath]

Thanks very much for your kind comment. This actually is the official video, the guys asked me to collaborate after seeing my graduation project ('Glide', which I have also uploaded) :)

Is this rendered with one of Mayas onboard renderers such as metal ray or maya vector or is rendered with something like Renderman?

[ScottishGansta]

Gaarghh...I just can't stop watching this!!!
