That is a really cool video Jeff! My favorite part is near the end with the
dolphins.

Thanks Steinie,
I really appreciate it, I tried to mix a combo of Space which still to this day I dont like doing and Poser characters, "Astonauts and Dolphins". Every part of it was rendered in Vue 7. The three astrnauts if you look close enough actually have the faces of the three band members on each helmet lense.

It is my first entry. I use this part of my project for the contest. It is the first post on Internet.
As i said on my WIP: it is the last "dark" part. The next part will have flowers. Yes centibots can do that!

(i think it is often better to read the movie on the youtube site)

Thank to post comments and vote on my Youtube channel too.

Marcel
Very nice work you are doing there, I like the textures you have applied to the metal areas.
What is the frame size you are rendering at?
What software are you using?

I reduced the size on youtube at 640x360. The size for the final movie will be 1280x720.
I used trueSpace 7.6 model side and lightwork for the render. the centibots (robots for the new members) are textured with the caligari metal shader. Other type of old metal are simple phong shader with photo to map the surface. not really a complex work. For the lighting i used hdri for some scenes or/and basic lighting (directional and infinite). For the smoke and special effect i used the soft Particules illusion 3. then i used premiere 6.0 to edit the movie and add the sound. The movie is converted to h264 with total video converter 3.1

While this is not related to the animation contest I wanted to post this up.
Many of you know me for my 3D animation and design.
I work for a non-profit group that produces therapeutic trikes for children and adults with disabilities.
I would like it if you could take a few moments of your time to make the difference to a child.
It will cost you nothing what so ever and only take a few minutes of you time.

Here is my second submission for the animation contest.
This is done for the Sesame street contest going on at ANIBOOM.
The majority of this was done in VUE while I used Poser for the sports announcer and I used ParticleIllusion for the smoke on the opening screen. The race car model was downloaded from Renderosity and then modified for this. The sports announcer is original as well as the stands and track. The flag was designed in TS and exported as an OBJ and used in VUE.
I think this covers it.

Take a moment to vote for me at the Aniboom Sesame Street contest.
