Talk about being there.....

Here's the making of. seems not entirely CG, but much of it is..

The music is Tangerine Dream - Phaedra

You have to be kidding me. You think that's 100 percent CG?
All the people are real... how can you not see it? Even the rest of the CG is not THAT good.
This is obviously a movie made with Airsoft weapons. The only effects I see here, is some image filter, CG smoke here and there, the blood/bullet wounds, and the obvious guns flashes and fire.

not much cg, alot of special effects though

Yeah if those are CG characters I'm a monkey's uncle. Very well done clip though. Nice head popping. I liked the editing on top of the effects.

No, it probably has a lot of motion capture, but it's mostly cg and cg editing. You can tell when you look close. They use up to 5200 polygons per soldier. The camera shake makes it look more real though. Check out the link that BicycleRepairMan posted: http://www.threeleggedlegs.com/view/?what=ricochet_expository

What's it like being a monkey's uncle? I always wondered what that would be like.

Wow... up to 5200. That's like what a good computer game uses, probably less.
THOSE ARE NOT CG SOLDIERS. PERIOD!

Some of the background soldliers might be CGI (as Empire says 5200 polys for a human is small even for a computer game) but the real looking stuff is well, real in my opinion. Given that I don't think there's anything remarkable about this clip unless it was done on a modest budget.

You guys are right, my mistake. I guess my imagination just got the better of me. I'll change the post to match. I was really hoping to meet someone with a monkey for a nephew though!

the shooting of it is pretty nice. i also like the setting and colours of the film.

Is this a trailer for the upcoming version of Counterstrike? I think I've played this level but they've updated the character skins somewhat.

Not that I know of. This is a short film by an animation advertising company called "Three Legged Legs."
