Digital sculpting

It kind of moves...

these guys away from machinima as narrative cinema towards machinima as almost virtual photography or perhaps more accurately as digital sculpture kind of explored through a moving eye or a roving eye The sequences were originally created as these three-dimensional battle dioramas for the loading screens of MechWarrior 5.

Here, however, what they're presenting is the kind of moving renders, which basically allow us to see these previously quite static compositions from entirely new camera positions and perspectives.

And what I particularly like is the variety of diorama techniques that they've employed in this particular short.
