I have seen your reel at sway and it's amazing. Are u using craft director tools? Camera moves and render quality are stunning!

I can answer that since I work Daniel at Sway now...

We have three tools for the camera moves. Amazing previz directors, awesome art directors, and incredible artists.

We also have an amazing proprietary car simulator, which IMHO is far superior from the one that craft offers.

Yeah you guys have a really high standard of work - Good to see you keeping in touch with max and vray.

That's unbeatable!

We recently purchased 4Wheeler extended from craft animations, and it´s pretty good, not too pricey and fairly stable. The ability to follow a spline is a nice addition too since u can have a nice animation just in minutes. After using Reelmotion some years ago, and trying vehicle simulator with no success, i can say im pretty happy with the craft one. I would love to have some inhouse apps too, but man, only a few can afford that!
Has your vehicle simulator been named? Any plan to go mainstream in the future?

And one other thing you forgot, the occasional donuts and croissants!

not quite sure we can talk about it to much.

I dont know which impresses me more, the life & soul given to the robot or the CG itself,

You should note that it was a combination of CG and practical robot. With Stan Winston doing the practical robot. If you can't tell which is CG and which is practical, then our goal was achieved...

I love it! Great CG!
Being on production, helps me understand, that this stuff wasn't that easy to do.

P.S. Here you CAN still watch this brilllliant ad!

To be honest I don't se a reason why you'd bother with a practical one in this case, it's a shiny hard surfaced object which is pretty ideal for cg - it looks great and it's not as if cg would limit the performance you'd get from the robot...

Great job though.

i think some shots would have been A LOT cheaper to have a real robot Like throwing it off the bridge the cost to do that in cg would have been high
