Forest Stook, a 15-year-old 3D artist, is back with a hyperrealistic animation that might catch you off guard. Elevator Inspection (Gone Wrong) looks like camera footage but ends with a supernatural twist.
The work was done in Blender, with rendering in Cycles. Stook mentions that Cycles provides a fantastic level of realism just by lighting the scene "the way it would be lit in real life."
"I initially did a 3D hand but people were saying it looked lousy so I took a rotobrushed video of my hand and sneakily animated it to look right. It most definitely was not perfect but it worked!" he shared on Reddit.
