Rest regards.

Loving the bit where the birds appear and the leaves fall.
The rendering of the brick building at that point is fantastic. It looks real. -
Really great work there steeler, I'm impressed. Its good to see a nice Vray4SU demoreel work out so well.
Congrats, and good luck on that great new project. -
Really nice work on the reel Adam!
That project will be a nice addition to the skyline up on Mt Washington.

Thanks guys. Im glad you all liked it.
Earthmover & Solo: Thanks for the feedback guys, always appreciated. Several of the sequences were still images that had effects just applied to them in after effects. That was a decision I made early to do since we already had most of the renderings finished, and I wanted to have this marketing piece as soon as possible while trying to minimize all the time that would have needed to be spent rendering tons of frames. It was a lot quicker, and maybe a bit more visually interesting, to just add effects in after effects. It also gave me more practice with that sort of work. Then I just mixed those sort of sequences in with actual animated camera sequences to still justify it as an animation and not just a slide show. I find that when animating, as along as you have some sort of movement (even if it is just a single frame being zoomed in/out) and mix it properly with other animated sequences that it can work for a project. But it depends on the client to I guess.
As for some of the sequences:
-The birds were a single frame that got zoomed out and I animated the birds in after effects in a seperate file and then imported them on a layer in front of the sky background, but behind the building that had a transparent background-the fire was the same idea. A single frame with stock footage of fire that we purchased and added in after effects
-The Leaves we added in after effects using a particle system plugin, but they were actually added to an animated camera sequence
-The glass door sequemce was one of the projects that I did the primary modeling in SU then renderd in vray for max. At the time, i just did it to use a project as practice in max, but then I realized the advantage of being able to animate objects in max so i did the cliche door opening sequence. not very original, but i didnt mind it.
Thanks again guys for the feedback, i hope i answered your questions clearly.
Dean: Thanks man. Yeah that will be a nice project for the city and that area in particular. We are trying to get LEED platinum for it all, and I think it will be a great symbol for the city moving in that direction. There are still a lot of obstacles, but hopefully it all works out. I always forget, how close to pittsburgh are you? Not far right?
Cadmunkey: Thanks as well...hopefully I will be able to work on the project and share images with everyone as the project progresses.
