This is a music video I made by compiling some CGI animations I rendered in 3D Studio Max. It's an early attempt and some of the animations are a little rough, but I think It's still fun. Some of the models were made by me, others are from various 3D internet sites.The song is "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" by a Canadian group named Klaatu.Enjoy!

Aug 21, 2008 - the 3d models are good...i think you should not use so many different transition effects between the scenes......good job...
buckaroohawk Says:
Aug 21, 2008 - I did go a little crazy with the transitions, but I having such fun playing with them. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for writing!

Aug 21, 2008 - The original song "Calling Occupants of the Interplanetary Craft" by The Carpenters came out in 1977 and was a big hit since it coincided with the hoopla over Steven Spielberg's CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND.
buckaroohawk Says:
Aug 21, 2008 - Actually, according to a number of Klaatu fans above, they recorded the song first, and The Carpenters covered it sometime later. Either way, it's a cool song. Thanks for writing.
rlctx Says:
Aug 21, 2008 - The original is by Klaatu. The Carpenter version stinks

buckaroohawk Says:
Aug 21, 2008 - Correction Correction: My grammar is NOT in error in the quote above. The word "they" correctly infers the group Klaatu, not the phrase "Klaatu fans."Don't mess with me, man. I have a Master of Arts in English. Don't make me start diagramming sentences on you! ;-)

buckaroohawk Says:
Aug 21, 2008 - I'm not a big fan of anime. I tend to stick to live action sci-fi as source material. Still...some of the designs are cool...
