A Photorealistic CGI TV Series Coming Real Soon Now

Posted by Hemos on from the ja-the-tv-is-gut dept.

ziggy_zero writes "SoulPix has revealed their project named "SoulFire", a photorealistic computer-generated TV series created entirely with 3ds max. Here's a trailer (it's in German). Looks pretty cool, better than those CGI cartoons I've seen - although definitely not even Final Fantasy quality. Note - apparently the DivX version was encoded using a weird codec that doesn't work on all players, so you might be better off getting the Quicktime version."

    I managed to get the file, so here's a mirror using BitTorrent. If you don't know what BitTorrent is, first go to the BT site and download and install the client (Windows/OSX/Unix versions available).

    Please keep your BT window open for as long as possible (at least an hour or two) after your transfer completes. Thanks!

    Well, it lacked subsurface scattering, which is pretty important thing when rendering stuff like human skin. Check it here.
