On another note, it's fun to scroll the mouse across the minute bar and compare Weinstein's sped-up body movement with Lawrence's.

You can buy a tin of it here: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/5ac8/

It's fun to mess with but know up front that it will not look as spectacular as it does in this video. This is sped up quite a bit and has all sorts of great camera tricks going on. I am actually more intrigued by how they did their pans and sweeps during the timelapse. Presumably with some sort of slow-moving rigging system.

Ah, this has been sped up, too. That's why the voices seem wrong.

I wouldn't say a tech demo has to center individual effects necessarily (as in enumerating and highlighting them) necessarily, but it does have to run in real time on *something*. I'll accept a little give-tand-take there (like it was rendered at half-real time and sped up for the video or something). Otherwise, it may as well just be raytracing. It's obviously all hand-animated too anyways, so whether or not its rendered real time is almost moot.

That said, apart from some questionable art direction, it does look pretty cool. I look forward to the time, 8 or 10 years from now, when cut-scenes rendered in real time look like this.

Fancy rendering effects are great and all, but we need more physics stuff if we're going to advance gameplay. Not just solid-body, stuff tessellating with the bits bouncing around, but actual modeling of of environments taking into account the physics of how stuff works. Entire levels built of structures that obey the laws of physics made of materials with realistic properties. Wires carrying current, pipes with flowing water, load bearing beams and framing, fuel tanks with flammable liquids and gasses... that sort of thing,

I want to play a game where my imagination is the limit. Apologies for the rambling. Had a couple glasses of wine. Anyways, you know what I mean,

What does that actually mean, 300 FPS? Recorded at 300 frames per second, on it's own, doesn't tell me anything.

Is it playing back at 25 FPS, therefore it's slowed down by a factor of 12? Or (just to illustrate my point) is it played back at 900 FPS, therefore sped up 3x?

Nah - prefer dancing that isn't sped up. Still bouncy, though.

The video was sped up 4x, the map is of Atlanta, photos of other large city maps can be seen here:

Nah, he just has a slow moving clock, and then sped up the video so the clock was ticking once per second.

"tiltshift" is not sped up. However, tiltshifted footage is usually sped up to look more miniature.

Part2 - JayZ sped up sounds like Nicki Minaj.

I wonder what it's called. Kinda like how tiltshift really isn't just sped up.

"Compressed Chronological Reality" maybe.

*timeshift...yup they're sped up.

>> ^EMPIRE:

I actually like this movie. And the fact that the devil is played by Dave Grohl just makes this scene even better.


Yea I just watched it a couple days ago lol, guess it should have been alot earlier since it's hilarious. Probably JBs best role.



And thanks guys for welcoming me to the site! As soon as I found it I got hooked.

Changed the embed to the normal version!
Here's the originally sifted "sped up" version: http://youtu.be/X-BADUSfqGA

Looks like the truck sped up.

I would have too
