This is a project that I finished before the end of last year but haven't had time to post anything. This was intended to be a marketing piece for the developer to include in commercials as well as mailers. The entire project took me about two months to complete, everything was rendered out at NTSC resolution. C&C are welcome.

Wow. That's really impressive. The only thing I would bother mentioning is the rotating ceiling fan looked odd- I think it's the lack of motion blur. I remember you posted a little clip of one of those bedrooms a while back- the finished product turned out much, much better.

Looking good, but the flat trees and bushes are really annoying me. Dont use planes for trees in animations. Its looks sooo flat... :?

The car animation is not that good either. When its turns, it looks like it slides.

But, wow, the interior scenes looks amazing. What a job you have done. And, wow, so many frames rendered. :shock:

I personally can't stand the flat trees either but I couldn’t figure out any other way to get the quantity of trees and bushes into my scenes without creating memory problems. I agree with you about the car, it's something that I just didn't have the time to fix, I knew that CG people would point it out but fortunately the client loved it like it is. I was really disappointed in the ceiling fan as well, I thought that motion blur would work but apparently it only works if the object is traveling in one direction or something like that.

There were a little over 5000 frame rendered for this, all but the first tree animation was done with Maxwell. The exterior frames only took about 15 minutes per frame; it was the interior spaces that really killed me. I was able to get the time down to about 7 hours per frame on the interiors. I have about 80 render nodes and they were rendering for the entire duration of the project.

Thanks guy's :D I appreciate it! No the music wasn't my choice, it was something the client picked out and no amount of bitching from me would change their mind. :cry:

WoW!
a 5000 frames animation done with maxwell isn't the kind of thing you see everyday... hehehe
it's just something we human beings can't afford: 7 hrs per frame at NTSC res. is just mad :/

anyway, that's great! :)
