Futuristic cityscape
2004-06-11, 2:07 PM #1
Here's a 15 sec. movie clip of a futuristic-looking cityscape.

I made the building models in Wings 3d and imported them into bryce 5.

This is a rough low-quality render, and that's why the buildings still have varying shades of gray. The final version will have good textures, and possibly redone lighting as well.

I'm making several cityscape animations and I plan to use premiere to string them together as part of a demo cd that I will eventually distribute to potential employers.

(6 mb, quicktime is required)

I tried to keep it small enough for dial-up users. DSL or cable should be able to grab this in under a minute.

Um...QuickTime.

No, wait, 4 I think. What are we up to? 6? 7?

Same thing happened with me, and I have QuickTime 6.5.

Edit: I just updated to the latest version (6.5.1) and it still doesn't work.

okay, for some reason, the quicktime file refuses to play when downloaded, but the original file plays fine.

Strange...
anyway, here's a still shot:

IMO, first shot is better. Shot two looks like poo.

Looks nice... And I might have an idea on what is wrong with the movie... In the directory where this movie is, is there also a *.mov.#res file? This file occurs when creating a movie that is above the standards for a QuickTime movie (more than 256 colors, don't know about the res).
I have a suggestion. Convert it to an AVI so that we all can watch it. You can make a small size by using a DivX or an Xvid format. I know where DivX lies, but Xvid I seem to have lost. I know of a program that can convert MOVs. RAD Game Video Tools, the thing that can play and make Bink and Smacker files. Now, if that doesn't work, then re-record you film and this time save as AVI.

First off, use avi, it owns quicktime. Bryce even supports it, so no reason not to.

Second off, it looks okay.
