I finally got around to watching this short film from Alex Roman today (after having had it in my Instapaper list for ages) thanks to Sidarth’s post from a couple days ago that reminded me of it. It is increasingly becoming Internet-famous, and for good reason: it’s breathtakingly amazing computed-generated imagery. Alex has since uploaded a couple making-of videos to his account that shows how he composited and produced (from start to finish!) some of the scenes in the film. Incredible work, and yet another example of the crucial role that emerging technology has always played with film.
Thanks to Coudal Partners’ Fresh Signals for the link to Gray Scale Gorilla’s all-in-one Third & Seventh post.
