Upception by Frank Ireland, a mashup of scenes from Pixar’s Up with the trailer for Inception. Tidy work. (via Laura Serra)
I mentioned Alex Roman’s work a couple of weeks back. Here’s what happens when motion is added to his beautiful stills: everything in The Third & The Seventh was created and animated in 3D software. I can’t fault a single frame. Watch it in HD.
Update: Alex has posted that not quite everything is 3D modelled. Elements sourced elsewhere include the photographer (shot on green screen), pigeons, timelapsed flowers, aeroplane and sky backgrounds.
This is darling and deliciously dark: Alma, written and directed by Rodrigo Blaas. (via Garrett Murray)
Incredibly realistic 3D renderings by Alex Roman. There’s a softness and artistry to these images — particularly the way they’re focused and lit — that completely sells them as real-life objects. (via Scott Hansen)
In some shots it’s more obvious than others, but while this set may appear to be photography of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s Farnsworth House, it is in fact a 3D rendering by Peter Guthrie, using 3DS Max and V-Ray. (via Brian Everett)
