Why "I Robot" and why this kind of video?
Well, this track was requested for some friends in other video comments, besides, the idea was in my mind for some time ago, the problem was: "how to start?" and "what can I show?".
Normally (as APP's music) my videos used to be a little "dark"or "serious", so I decided to make something diferent and more funny.

Basically, the look is inspired by "Metropolis" (1927) by Fritz Lang (obviously the most generlized idea in YT) but only in characters (the "femebot" and the "sci-fi art deco" style) and the" sexy robot girls friends of "Bender" showing in Futurama.

This video it's a new experiment, all sequences, scenes, characters, cameras and environments have been made it using only 3D software, which is very different from what I've done before, was a very HARD work (believe me) probably only compared to the "video wall" sequence made it from still images in "Lucifer".

Technical details (to avoid "expert" comments)

Some frames were removed to give a more robotic movements to characters, thats is why some sequences may seem "choppy" and that's what I wanted, even remember the "frame by frame" effect made it in old movies.

All the sequences have been rendered in 3D OpenGL hardware-assisted, I did not use complex shading, external software or light plugins in render, not because "I can't", was whit the only purpose to make it look a little "old fashioned", a kind of balance between the music age and new technologies.

Finally clear that the "Isaac's laws" are only 3, the fourth is a joke.

Robot texture (the robot "clothing") designed by Daz (Krill Minima)

In advance, I ask apologies to all true geniuses of 3D animation (like Vanina or MsCalandro) for this experiment.

Enjoy and do not forget comments (this time more than ever).

  • this is the second time that I saw an App 3D video, Time machine was the first (and not so good)

    is hard to express in words how I felt when I watch this video for first time, it's just amazing, not because is made it in 3D or because have a nice look, is everything, from the atmosphere at characters, including the funny idea to make sexy-hot-foxy-robo-dancers with a little comedy including.

    what can I say? you made it again, from now on this vid must be the most official I Robot APP clip

  • Sobran las palabras amigo..... me desbordan los sentidos.... te has salido de veras.... Estas en otro plano... ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡EN 3D!!!!!!!
