Respect, great respect to Alex Roman. One can almost say he has with the short film "The Third & The Seventh" (created about 12 minutes), an animated masterpiece. Renderings and animations are so real that one can hardly believe it.

As he says it on his Vimeo page: "Please watch in full screen" and that one should also to reap the full benefit of HD quality.

The work describes himself as an attempt Alex architecture of a photographic view showing - sometimes abstract - sometimes surreal. Served as the basis zumeißt existing buildings.

According to his statement:

"I think i must make it clear. There are a few non-CG elements in the short film: photographer (shot on green screen), pigeons, timelapsed growing flowers, flying airplane and sky backgrounds. "

That is, filmed by the photographer, the deaf, the time-lapse flowers, the aircraft and the sky backgrounds are. Everything else is rendered.

Even if the music plays by Edward Michael Laurence Nyman - (The Departure)
and Charles-based Camille Saint-Saëns - (Le Carnaval des animaux).

I would be so interested in working time and render time. ) gerendert worden. Als Software kam: 3dsmax, Vray, AfterEffects and Premiere zum Einsatz. Alex says, "The Third & The Seventh" has been allles rendered with only one computer (i7 920 and a QX6850). Came as Software: 3dsmax, Vray, After Effects and Premiere are used.

With "The Third & The Seventh" Alex has created novel is a milestone in the capabilities of the modeling. I guess the man himself does not need to worry for a job
