So, 2007 has already passed. I'll close off this year by wishing you all an excellent New Year's Eve. Before you shut down your computer, get in the mood to party by checking out this *cool* video by Yain Rodrigo Vieyra from Argentina. See you next year!

My name is Yain Rodrigo Vieyra. I´m 18 years old and I came to the fantastic Blender 3 years ago. I´m from Argentina and I´m a sci-fi animation lover. I always wanted to achieve realism into my works, but I´ve made this work without that idea on mind.
This is a syncro animation test that I´ve made in two weeks without any plugin. The idea was to make a syncro between the moves and the rhythm. The track selected was "Love Is Gonna Save Us", from Benny Benassy. I was inspired by some music tracks and I rendered the ideas that came to me. Yes, strange, but now REAL.
Some tech information is that the face was controlled by a small part of bones. Not very detailed, but controlled with many bones in the lips. The camera was a continuous fly mode following a simple curve. The glows were made with a nodes composition and the final music compilation was made in Sound Forge, a sound editor. This music style is an ideal way to create strange machines and a big opportunity to capture the ideas into our imagination.
I´m working in a second, but more serious music video. The track will be "It´ll be ok", from Limp Bizkit, with a little realism touch.

Nice sync.
Happy New Year all. A year full of new Blender advancements awaits!

Nice vid, love the reflections.
And happy new year to you all
Even if I still have to wait another 14 hour here (Motreal, Québec)
This is really awesome music graphics!
I wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR..
Sweet! Happy New Year!
It's been an exciting Blender-year among others - so happy newyears to everyone!
Only negative comment on the video, is the spinning logo. I think it needs to go.
Happy New Year!!!
The same to you!
Woot!
I still have to wait a few hours. It's 18:11 here.
¡Excelente!
¿18 años?...Tiene talento el individuo ;)
Siga con el buen trabajo.
all the happy greetings & may the coming year be even better in every possible way! :)
Happy newyear to you all!
2007 was a fantastic blender year
2008 is promissing to be even better :)
Excelent work!!... i like the move of the camera and the scifi style, very well done.
Happy new years everyone!!!
A great music video, definitely better than lots of other stuff here that got a dedicated news post. BTW, to the author: It's not at all "strange" to get inspired by music and then using creative tools to render the ideas that come to one's mind. Much to the opposite, that's the way it has to work :-)
Happy new year!!
And great video.
aaw. I am stuck here in 2007 and away in austrailia poeple will be enjoying 2008
Still 2007 here, happy new year to all of you 2008 people in the future! :)

BUT THAT WAS AWESOME!!!
Happy New Year Everyone! May all of you have a great year ahead!
Masterpiece ! Happy New Year!!!
Happy New Year from California!
RESPECT!!! That was really cool, I really like it
They sell this stuff over the web, see (if you don't know) http://animusic.com/
but the those over this site, are a bit boring after awhile, and yours really keep the interest all along :)
My first Blender news of 2008. Great beginning with this video. Happy New Year !
PS. I agree with Claws, the dancing logo is somewhat distracting.
That was great! I wonder if anyone else is familiar with the Animusic videos. They're a lot like this one.
hooray for 08
If you´re only 18, all I can say is you have a great future in CGI ahead of you. Happy new year.
Great animation!
DAMM GOOD!
btw: Technoviking says hes very pleased with the video and the sinc!

Yain, that was great!!
I have about 3 songs queued up in my head that I would like to put into an animation like this. Unfortunately, I don't yet have the skill and I don't have the time to acquire the skill and I'm already twice your age! Sigh...
great animation.
and a happy new year to all blender renderers.
