![Resident Evil Soundtrack - Umbrella Corporation | [Cover]
Been playing a bunch of Resident Evil games again lately. Ive always been a fan of the Umbrella Corporation theme from the first Resident Evil film, composed by Marilyn Manson and Marco Beltrami. Finally decided to create my own little version of it. ;)
Made with Reason 8.
The original version:

![Portal - Christmas 2013 [Behind The Scenes]
A quick behind-the-scenes look at my Portal Christmas vid for 2013. About 2 weeks of work went into this. ;)
The music in this is a work-in-progress track Ive made. Ill be finishing and uploading it soon. =)
Wheatley and the bots have a little Christmas adventure. ;)
Tried some new stuff in this one;
- Motion-capture with a Kinect
- All sets built entirely in SFM on the black_void map
- Some custom particles
As always; thanks to August Rantis Loolam for making the awesome Core, Turret and Bird custom rigged models. ^_^
