Very cool indeed. The lighting and animation is really good. Where did you get the trees from ?

Very cool animation! Nice idea to present a house for the client.

cool, very smooth...
how did you animate the tiles ? not all by hand?

I really like this. There have been lots of these construction animations about over the last few years, but I think this one has been particularly well executed in it's concept of taking the design from 2d drawings, through stylised construction and almost into a traditional flythrough. The intimate feel to it is great and I liked the particle effects and 2d pop-up trees towards the end, which give it an illustrative look. A nice mix of styles, executed with skill - congrats!

I may have a construction animation coming up soon, so I'd be interested how you went about it in terms of animation, post, etc. For more complex animations of this type I've heard of some people using scripts (though which ones I'm not sure), others particles and some even hand animating the lot! Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.
