    Hey Guys,
    Just finished a short piece about the Arab spring.

    http://vimeo.com/32613201

    Well, a very loose visual interpretation. Would love to hear your thoughts on it.

    I its kind of open to interpretation. So i'd be interested to see how you read it.

    cheerio

    Awesome skills Raoul!!
    Can you post some info about the software use, render, render time...etc...
    About the subject, like your vision (the Meca symbolism).
    Well Done!

    Thanks all!

    Well to be honest, It all started because "The Arab Spring" had such great visual connotations to it.

    Historically, a lot has gone in to fuelling the unrest across many arab nations. Be it, western meddling and control of resources, Corrupt puppet governments, war, Religious fuelled anger and so on.

    I just wanted to show a visually abstract interpretation of the creation of the Arab Spring. An Allegory of the fears and hopes of the everyday man throughout the middle east.

    Not being from the middle east or Islamic, I'm aware its an outside perspective - but hey, thats fine, isnt it?

    In terms of production. It was made with the usual kit.
    C4D AE. useful plugs like realflow and turbluenceFD were also used. I've Just been working on it on and off around work. Render times are hard to remember because there where so many elements/passes. But nothing in there took too long. I really try to achieve as much in post. I think there is a tendency to think everything must be accurate/realistic in the 3d. In reality its all a big illusion when working on CG so i say cheat as much as possible.

    • Big fan of C4d, but no amazing skills as yours...Congrats again!Mishga

    Great work. I use C4D as much as possible but you've mastered a lot of things in there, Thinking Particles, Mocca, skies, environments, a gift for realism. Shit, I have so many questions.

    • ask away mate. happy to answer your questions
