We all remember how spectacular was Alex Roman’s CG Shortfilm about Louis Kahn’s Phillips Exteter Academy Library. Now, you can see Roman’s latest animated video called “The Third & The Seventh”. The video was created with 3dsmax, Vray, After Effects, and Premiere. You can also enjoy the making of after the break.

I’ve seen this video already. I must say I am still so impressed of the amazing quality and attention to detail. Its crazy to think that it took him 4 years to complete this video by himself.
accipicchia….
masterpiece!!! chapeau!!!
sick video, seen his other vids…. very detailed rendering…
and for sure hell consumes a lot of time and need super computer for it
brilhante!
Yes, very nice. I have seen this also already. It must have been a lot of work. I think, he must know wery good, how the details by Louis Kahn etc. look like. At most I like the surrealist part in the end.
simply WOW.. as a photographer and architect myself i can only feel admiration to the wonderful attention to details and its artistic approach. Its beautiful.
One simply amazing project by a one man show. The level of detail in this film is just absurd. Great project
I watched this six times and each time I can’t help but admire not only his skill but his respect for my profession. Now everyone can see architecture through eyes of someone who appreciates all elements of architecture.
It’s amazing. I’m astonished.
enchanting!
THIS IS THE ARCHITECTURE OF TRUTH!!
stunning!!!!
this is a Gattaca rip
correct me if he was worked on the movie.
i can give him credit for his exacting diligence to the cinematic genius of gattaca
its good stuff but it is gattaca and hairy potter and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
but i imagine those directors sourced there imagery from even later inspirational achievements.
we all build off the achievements of other men/women
its truly serene
fantastic!
but i don’t get it. the flow is too erratic.
