CGI Video: \"Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft\" CGI Video: "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft"
Posted by: buckaroohawk

Video duration: 207 seconds

This is a music video I made by compiling some CGI animations I rendered in 3D Studio Max. It's an early attempt and some of the animations are a little rough, but I think It's still fun. Some of the models were made by me, others are from various 3D internet sites.
The song is "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" by a Canadian group named Klaatu.
Enjoy!

Another music video compiled from clips of my 3D animations, rendered in 3D Studio Max. This one focuses on smaller, piloted spacecraft and aircraft instead of larger starships. The song is "Learn to Fly" from the Foo Fighters. Enjoy!

This is a series of production title cards I created in 3D Studio Max. A few of them appear at the beginning of other videos I've posted, and I decided to put them all together and show them off. Enjoy!

It's the new and improved "All I Ask is a Tall Ship," now with more Trekiness! Some people had problems with the song previously attached to this video so I had to remove it. Much sadness. Then, a revelation! Replace the song with other music, then post again! Much happiness!
If you enjoyed the original video, I hope you like this one, too. Enjoy!

Take a ride on one of the best wooden rollercoasters in the world, the Jackrabbit at Kennywood Park! It's an edge of your seat thrill as you take those hills and turns with the riders! It's worth watching just to hear how much fun the riders are having, especially the one holding the camera.
Get in, sit down and hang on! You're about to experience "Kennywood: Jackrabbit!"

CGI Film Title Sequence: \"The Portal\" CGI Film Title Sequence: "The Portal"
Posted by: buckaroohawk

Video duration: 152 seconds

This is the opening sequence to a science fiction film written by my co-worker's daughter and her friend. It's about two how two kids thwart the invasion of Earth by a bunch of inept aliens. The film itself remains unfinished, but since I created this sequence I thought I'd post it here. Hopefully the whole film will get done someday. Made and rendered in 3D Studio Max.
Enjoy!

UPDATE: 5/21/2008. I've deleted the lower resolution version of this video since this one seems to be more popular.
This is the premiere of my new StarBird 3D model, based on the original toy from Milton Bradley. Future videos will showcase the ship's capabilities and interior arrangement, but this one is all about the wonder of flight. Enjoy!

Video duration: 14 seconds

I found this video on a CD I burned a few years ago. I was testing the Matte/Shadow features in 3D Studio Max and hit upon the idea of the U.S.S. Enterprise looking for somewhere to park in downtown Pittsburgh. Just made it as a bit of fun. Enjoy!

This is a short clip I made a while back in 3D Studio Max. A friend said "I love your CGI work, but there's too much 'Star Trek.' Can't you do anything else?" I made this in response to his challenge. Then I continued making Star Trek videos ;-)
Enjoy!
