Supinfocom :: OCEANSIZE
Posted in: 3d shortfilm, advanced water simulation, cg, dreamscape, epic, General, lighting, Realflow, Students, supinfocom
This massive 8-minute offering from four Supinfocom Arles students may be the most ambitious student piece I have ever seen—and it’s my favorite to date.
Amazing attention to detail, exquisite lighting, and epic matte paintings are just the beginning of this oil rigging adventure gone wrong. The suspense follows 2 futuristic oil riggers, one barring a remarkably close resemblance to Romain Jouandeau himself, as they square off against what they are looking for in the first place. Unfortunately for their sake, it finds them.
Created in 10 months by Romain Jouandeau, Adrien Chartie, Gilles Mazières and Fabien Thareau, this project has some truly beautiful moments. It also boasts a very high level of skill in the technical department, with an awesome combined use of Realflow and the 3D Max plug-in, Dreamscape.
For a behind the scenes look at the making of Oceansize and other delectable goodies, be sure to look here at the official site. For even more excellent sketches, concept art and matte painting work, have a look at Romain’s personal site.
