But I have to say, without K-OZ this animation would not exist. He kept me going. And did those awesome visual effects. It was a really great collaboration. (Though I don't want to diminish Strongground's contribution - His model is really nice). Quote from: cKleinhuis and we produce hopefully a demo for the evoke this year, hope meeting ya again, Yay, looking forward to it. We plan to be at Evoke again, though I will not release anything major - at least not on my own. There might be some music though. =) Quote from: cKleinhuis be sure to read weavers "special" review Oh yes, I did. And it is special, I really feel honoured. Thank you, weavers! Quote from: cKleinhuis what place did you receive ?! 2nd in the anim/video compo. Looks like this is becoming a habit. =D Quote from: cKleinhuis and why not compete in this years compo !??!? huh? I'm afraid for the usual reasons when an animation is finished. We started end of January, when the first version of the soundtrack was ready - which took just two evenings until is was virtually finished. Followed by 2,5 months of intense work, which ate up a lange share of our available free time. Thus I will probably stay clear from fractal programs for some time if I can help it. =) Title: Re: Surfacing Post by: Dinkydau on May 01, 2014, 07:32:13 PM Fantastic video! Very good composition of various fractals with the music
I wish it could be downloaded to watch without lag. This video is worth watching in a proper way.

Fun thing we observed while checking Youtube and Vimeo: The choppiness seems to relate to the videoplayer inside the browser. We experienced choppy playback in Firefox, so I downloaded the video from Youtube (jdownloader does a nice job there). The resulting mp4 file, while compressed to mush, is perfectly smooth. Likewise with Vimeo. What Vimeo did to the audio is a different story:
Title: Re: Surfacing Post by: Dinkydau on May 02, 2014, 10:46:12 PM YouTube has very good audio indeed. They increased the bitrate not a long time ago. Usually vimeo allows the videos to be downloaded, but this time there was no download button. Also I used to have an extension to download from youtube, but it stopped working a while ago. My computer also plays downloaded videos well. It's just the unefficient browser players that lag all the time. |
