Hey guy's this is nowhere near the photo-real awesomeness normally posted here, but there are not a whole lot of animations posted here so I thought I'd add this.
I made this Pro Bono for my church as a sermon series bumper.
General Info:
  • 3DS Max Plugin
    4x gtx 465's OC'd to 770 MHz at a stable 78-ish degrees.
    73 MS/sec
    256 samples
    7 sec render
    15sec/frame (load/render/save)

What am I missing for the Vimeo tag so that this embeds right?

Hey, good to see another AG'r on here :)

Bumper definitely worked, might have made it shorter and given some sort of communication sound FX, but I know how it can be when you're working on something that you don't know if anyone will use, and or if they'll change it completely.

Good job indeed

Thanks for the comment! You pretty much nailed it. I didn't even make a previs to make sure the timing was perfect. :lol:
I had an idea. I made it. And that's something I love about octane. I'd normally make an animation like this in 1.5hrs and then have to dial in a render where the time was not exorbitant and that would take me 4 more hours of soul crushing "Edisonian approach" (aka trial by error) or more often than not; I just would not render it. I actually enjoy rendering now because of Octane.
