X + RAMMSTEIN + AVIS = X Music Video :-)

Post by Avis »

The next logical step in X digital art, MOVIES :D

It's not complete yet (mainly because of the IMMENSE scale of this thing in terms of time to render).

it's 50 seconds of X inspired 3D rendering to the tune of Rammstein.

feedback very welcome (especially the nice sort ;-) )
but please bear in mind this is my 2nd ever attempt at 3D animation and I ain't making the new series of B5 so be gentle :-)

[Right click link and 'save as', DivX5.02 codec needed]

12Mb decent quality-ish http://www.apra75.dsl.pipex.com/projects/ramx.avi

4.5Mb lower quality http://www.apra75.dsl.pipex.com/projects/ramx2.avi

What I want to know is is it worth finishing the video off ?

Please, Avis, please make more! I beg you!

This is top-quality work, and I'm not just saying that to be nice. The rendering is brilliant and the music rocks.

Make more of this and post it here, lest we be forced to read Vader's highly informative and interesting posts.*

Good enough to make me put my head above the parapet and shout 'MORE MORE'.

I know I'm on leave but this is the first time I've lurked and I really can't let this pass without comment. Sue me. :wink:

Because I have been asked about this:

This is not an official video nor shows it scenes from any version of the X games (released or not).

However, the officials do like this video - big "thumbs up"!
Keep up the great work!

Well I've just (about 15 min ago) downloaded the 12 mb file.....and scratched about for the divx 5 codec....so got to see your 2nd creation :D

Turned the volume up a bit because the intro music was a bit low....and a second later blasted me frickin ears off! :lol:

Question's been answered by Burnit! in this thread.....I thought for a minute you'd used models and stuff somehow from X-Tension.....
That just about says it all Avis :wink:

I WOULD like to see the complete/finished video at sometime please 8)
edit....btw. I haven't actually asked Burnit! if material from X had been used....(just to clarify)
Oldman :)

It's just like being in there in space, next to the battle, without any oxygen!*

Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerer's ways, Lord Vader.

up the stolen data tapes, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the
