I Wish I Could Create Space-Age Movies Like This

With obvious nods at 2001, Sunshine and countless other space-set stunners, it was made with “no money, just a little time and a lot of passion,” according to creators BC2010. I dunno, there seems to be a lotta tech wizardry involved…

There’s a making-of video below, which shows how they used a green screen to film everything against. Then, using Carrara Pro for modelling, animation and rendering; Syntheyes for matchmoving; After Effects for compositing and motion graphics; and Final Cut Pro HD to stitch everything together, it was complete. Utterly perfect. I suppose knowing the right people and the right skills helps with projects like this, but isn’t it nice dreaming of making stuff like this yourself? [Vimeo via Fly Lyf]

    Thanks! been trying to convince a friend that sunshine, although farfetched as far as sci-fi movies go, is actually a good flick, but know instead I suffer ridicule every time we go see a movie I’ve picked, stigmatised for LIFE! well sb from dc… I’ve finally been vindicated.

    Amazing considering the budget.
