Uploaded January 2017 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago
A 3D animated short exploring patterns and their ability to create dynamic images out of the simplest elements. The whole video is a static shot that keeps evolving to something new with every second.
Reflective surfaces are used a lot in order to create the illusion of different forms and play with the expectations of the viewer.
Rendered in painstaking 4K!
You can read more about the video and some work in progress images and videos by the woderful Director's Notes here:

Software used: Cinema 4D, Adobe Illustrator
