This is a still frame from another short animation that I've started working on.
This shot features simple animated birds, cloud layers, and a red balloon.
Gradient sky, blob birds, procedural media clouds, CSG (ovus/sphere/cone/torus)
balloon and sphere_sweep string.
Cheers,
Rob

Very nice. I look forward to the animation.

That's going to be great. Will the clouds also be animated? Hmmm...
thinking of that: movement is not too difficult but shape-changing...

Yes, well I experimented with various movement strategies and finally found
something that I think is pretty good. However, I did grow rather tired of this
project after a few weeks of rendering and finally ended up ditching the birds
and balloon in favor of some simple bevelled text (the animation was really
intended to be about the clouds anyway). Maybe one day I'll get back to the
balloon but I'm itching to turn my attention to the TC-RTC Legend round now (oh
no, more clouds!)...
The animation is now available on Vimeo here, along with an explanation of the
process that I used to work around the SLOW media renders:

Very impressive.
That remind me of some old Windows themed pictures (from another century).
Maybe a subliminal allusion about version 3.7 still being vaporware ?
And the movie is itself even more impressive (nice choice of music too).
Yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy.

Nice, semitransparent cloud billboards! Need to keep this in mind ;)
Now I wonder if you actually need the media cloud images, could you
fake a similar effect using procedurally patterned planes as well?

You are the master of Povray clouds Robert, this is a great animation. My first
thought was how did you render it that quickly but I see you have a few tricks
up your sleeve.

It's amazing!
A simple question: the camera seems to move into a static cloud (I don't
know how to express exactly in English, but the steam doesn't seems to
move). It's a huge work obtain the little variations of the steam caused
from the breeze?

Hmm, I suppose you could use pigmented planes, and I /have/ done this for adding
extra/contrasting cloud details in front of media clouds (as in my recent TC-RTC
entry "The Racetrack"), but the self-shadowing of the actual media is too good
to pass up ;)
