  • 3D Architecture Animation - experiment

    Posted on Friday August 29th, 2008 at 01:38 in architecture, animation, render, max, viz, sketchup, cinem4d

    This sample is from YouTube's "cableguy11". He was experimenting with cameras and materials in "MAX"...which I assume to be '3d studio max'. This is a great piece mimicking a miniature scaled model with white volumes representing surrounding structur...

    Posted on Saturday April 26th, 2008 at 21:40 in 3d, architecture, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, modeler, 3ds

    Great camera paths and speed. I like the transitional effects between different shots. It has its own style of presenting itself from sounds to entourage, this makes for a very unique animation. You have to love the little flying fairy effect used th...

    Posted on Friday March 21st, 2008 at 23:39 in 3d, architecture, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, modeler, 3ds

    Awesome 3d animation of a new urbanization proposal in Vietnam. Thank you Vnimation for sharing this reel. There are many ways to present large scale projects, I like the technique used here though, started off with the main feature (the skyscraper) ...

  • SketchUp Model

    Posted on Friday March 14th, 2008 at 21:54 in 3d, architecture, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    There have been many sketchup models exported to google earth, from novice modelers to advanced professionals, they are all unique. I found this presentation to be a good example of a fly-through, produced using sketchup as the main software. I have ...

    Posted on Thursday February 28th, 2008 at 01:55 in 3d, architecture, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    I found this presentation to be pretty neat. Yes, it is simple, but I like the way how the frames were rendered using the hidden line technique and then swithcing over to a "cardboard type" model along the middle of the presentation and then ending w...

  • 3D Architectural Animation - House

    Posted on Saturday February 23rd, 2008 at 14:43 in 3d, architecture, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    From You Tube's 3D Designs "This is a 3D animation of a house, as it will be seen from the street driving up to it. The owner wanted to add enough landscaping that covers up the walkout basement level." ....Now, I have to mention, that the 3D landsca...

    Opera Image's 3d animation of architectural model Unimed HQ located in São Paulo, SP, Brazil. I love the sectional "cutaway" technique they used in the beginning of the animation. Then it flies beautifully throughout the inside of the design with br...

  • Rise Studio Reel

    Posted on Saturday February 2nd, 2008 at 13:48 in 3d, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    Rise Studio Demo Reel 2007. Imagine what their 2008 Reel looks like! The scenes in this amazingly looks real and close to actual footage. With some camera 'shake', one could maybe be fooled to thinking it was actual video footage. They even had enoug...

    This intro was created for an architectural restoration company, VIP Restoration, as part of a promo of their services. This type of method, from plan to 3D, is always a cool thing for me personally. There's just something fun about it. There is abou...

  • 3d Video Animation Render

    Posted on Monday January 21st, 2008 at 23:58 in 3d, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    Pleasant 3D animation of a site viewing from a bird's eye view. Some still renders and fly-throughs but the aspect that caught my attention was the way the Site Plan was animated from above. Gentle camera movements and warm colors achieved was inviti...

  • Architecture Student Animation

    Posted on Sunday January 20th, 2008 at 18:31 in 3d, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    This short animation was produced, to my understanding, by a group of students. The things that use to be almost impossible to achieve are now becoming more common as software and hardware are gradually developing rapidly. Architectural animation and...

  • Designhive's Snowhill Animation

    Posted on Sunday January 20th, 2008 at 03:24 in 3d, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    I like how this animation begins.....with the building somewhat simulating construction in the latter phases....instead of columns and beams, they went ahead and simulated the assembly of a few architectural details/features like curtain walls and sh...

  • Construction Demonstration

    Posted on Saturday January 12th, 2008 at 00:03 in 3d, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    This demonstration actually animates the building being built from the ground up. Its fast paced so don't expect to see everything. The rendering output was very well done and they also included a whole 3d cityscape around the project that stretches ...

  • Architecture Thesis - Modular

    Posted on Wednesday January 9th, 2008 at 01:03 in 3d, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    This was made by a user on YouTube named 'homeworks255'. Nice 3d animation study of ideas. Quick motions and execution allowed the creator to present his/her concept from simple to complex in just 2 minutes and 45 seconds! All structure, no entourage...

  • Molao Project - Vietnam

    Posted on Sunday January 6th, 2008 at 00:28 in 3d, graphics, animation, render, cg, cad, rendering, 3ds

    3d and architecture concept by Archipel (Vietnam, SE Asia). This presentation had some interesting camera rolls and 'shaking' which I found to be pretty cool. Adds spice to the animation. Choice of music (in my opinion) matched the whole shot. Take n...
