This is my new windows desktop. I like it.
Click it for 1680x1050. It's huge.
This took 220 hours to render, or so. I'd click it and view it at youtube.com if I were you; part of the reason it took so long is that it's pretty high-res. Youtube's automatic compression, while pretty good, did things to the edges of the helices that I don't really like. Kind of clobbers the extremely slow-rendering focal blur near the camera, which looks beautiful. I'm still happy with it. Oh, and go all the way: change it from 360p to 480p. Then just kind of stare and let it play.
Thanks K-dot, for reminding me how to embed YouTube videos. Every time I go to do it, I have to figure it out again, and I think you just saved me 15 minutes.
This video is absurdly high-res. It is just completely pointless to have it at 720p. It took about 35 hours to render. It is much less visually interesting than Cloudbusting, which is not something I anticipated.
As a visual experiment, this video is largely a failure - the stills made it look very attractive, but it's just not an interesting animation. As practice with learning basic functions of Adobe Premiere, it was a success; I think the audio - while simple - is a good match, and a success as well.
More rambling commentary can be had by clicking on these discolored words and clicking "More info" on the right.
