  • first scene contains 100+ keyframe-animated objects that align to compose a vehicle; collision-free
  • it has been done backwards - by taking the car apart
  • second scene involves ca.25,000 MEL-driven moving objects; custom render script was necessary to make it live
  • car's suspension reacts to surface shape and obeys acceleration/deceleration and cornering depending on velocity
  • third scene shows a MEL-grown 'city' [ca.2,000 bldgs] and 400 orbiting archs; rendered with 4-deep raytracing
  • 500 workhours [incl. soundtrack remixing]

Who?

My name is Kim Daiguo or Grigory Byzov. That is, I'm Russian/Korean.

At some point the former turned out the preferred signature for art-related stuff I happen to commit to.

Current occupation: student at PJIIT, Warsaw, Poland.

I major in 3D animation nevertheless try to keep up-to-date with different areas of IT. These include OOP, RDB, ANN, raster graphics, audio/video post production, and web development.

Plans for the future tend to revolve around Far East 3D&film industry.

However, that shall only be the beginning...
