We did a rather stunning demonstration of whale sharks for a potential movie that is in the pipeline. The animation includes the optical effects of the water ripples on the fish and environment. |

Baby Orangutan juggles 3 balls
Body text: Can you believe that a baby Orangutan can juggle 3 balls!? (You don't have to, because this is an animation :-)
While researching the animation, I learnt that Orangutans have a very peculiar non-symmetrical way of walking, where they swing their one hind foot between the other and its opposing front hand. They nearly walk sideways like a crab! |

An alien came to visit us! Unfortunately his UFO had engine problems. An example of compositing animation onto film footage using move matching. |

Cloth test
Blender's algorithms are not yet optimised for modelling cloth, but we played around with the soft body parameters and managed to create quite realistic cloth in this test. Make sure you have your speakers on loud to catch the rhythm! |

Combining animations with live footage
See a cowboy shoot it out in a scene where the background is a photograph. Take careful note of how he - and especially his shadows - combine so smoothly with the photograph that you cannot tell where the photograph begins or ends! |
