Testing Thinking Particles

I am planning to come up with a new video with some different abstract animating elements. Actually i have been planning this from a long time and also have a few scenes ready, but couldn't go ahead with it since i was a bit caught up with the music video project and some other things. During the making of "The Progression" i was experimenting with a lot of things, some of them made it to the video and some didn't. During this stage i was kind of testing the thinking particles system for a few days. I tweaked some dynamic elements and played around with some lighting to came up with this result. I haven't composited the scene yet but i thought it would be good to share this stuff. This is actually the raw render and i have roughly edited this scene so that its actually watchable. You might want to switch to HD for better quality.

The Progression (Music Video)

I just finished doing this video for the music duo Ritesh & Rajesh. The video is about the ongoing fight against black money and corruption in India. It took me little over a month to do this entire stuff from concept to the final animation and editing.



It basically started out as a weeks project. The music was mainly composed by Rajesh, who had already worked on bits and pieces of it before contacting me. When the final music was done i was asked to do a simple video within a week. But i kinda of liked this idea very much and kept pushing and adding things to make it look even better both conceptually and visually. Thanks to Rajesh who always supported me inspite to the increasing timespan and let me do what i wanted to with this piece.
So please have a look at this music video, do share this stuff around if you like it and support the cause.
