A new outstanding animated piece by The Mill. According to the studio director Russell Tickner shot 35mm live action performance of the coins spinning from different angles with different speeds and then the Mill’s R&D department created the 3D code that would help simulate the movement of coins in this superb realistic rendering.

This is a great demo reel featuring an impressive collection of 3D and motion graphic pieces by the french studio Gkaster, that was founded by Pierre Fabre and Pierre Magnol. Enjoy!

I was watching TV the other day and I noticed this beautifully made commercial for the new Lincoln 2010. The music is great too. Its “major tom” (coming home) performed by shny toy guns. Enjoy!

Once I saw this piece on Vimeo I thought it had some familiar quality to it and as soon as the credits came up I said “Aha!” Not surprisingly the work of the outstanding director Chris Milk, Produced for the 42 Second Dream Film Festival. Definitely worth sharing.
