Hi.
This is intended to be a book trailer but also a computer graphics demo. Uses various digital techniques. Just for fun (though it took a lot longer than a weekend to do it).

Cheers.
 
Excellent! Nailed the feel and tone of those classic films. I liked the music cues you added from movies, I especially recognised Jerry Goldsmith's cues from The Mummy in there.
 
Thanks! Good ears! There's also a tiny bit of Raiders as well as Golden Voyage of Sinbad and some Rimsky-Korsakov's Sinbad and the Sea.


Have another trailer I am doing that's over 2 minutes but its got a little ways to go. Sword and Sorcery subject too.
 
Cool, great choices. The first Ray Harryhausen effects movie I ever saw was Golden Voyage of Sinbad (I personally think it's the best of the three Sinbad movies he worked on) as a kid, which led to my attraction to the video game Prince of Persia, specifically the Super Nintendo version which added boss enemies to fight, and one such enemy is actually a six armed statue not unlike the one in Golden Voyage :D

Great, look forward to seeing the next trailer when compete.
 
Its my favorite of the 3 films as well.


I planned ahead while learning computer graphics so some models I built as learning experiments eventually (6 years later) were used for the animation (the skeleton and the blemmye-headless man).

The other ad does have a 30 second teaser trailer but its missing sound effects and doesnt have the antique look yet. I might look for a voice narrator for the 2 minute version.
 
We're back.

I posted my first trailer last year.

The previous link is dead. This is the new one for the old one.

And this is the new ad I made.

Time for a long vacation.

Unless I get faster computers.
I can do a fair bit if its SD or not too high resolution like 720 x 1200 but my computer cant handle well beyond that--and nothing takes the fun out of computer graphics and compositing like waiting for an image to process.
I need to do software learning catchup and try some different renderers.
