This is the new reel of OvniVFX. For those who do not know OvniVFX is a studio focused on the advertising market. Located in Sao Paulo Brazil. Our pipeline is all in Blender 3D on Ubuntu linux. We use the Yafaray, Cycles and Octane Render for rendering.
This video is also available in HD on vimeo.

excuse me while I pick my jaw up off the floor
Ok. I'm ... more than just a little impressed here. Nice work!
That is some incredible artistic work. Congratulations!
This just goes to show what Blender is capable of in a studio pipeline.
The open movies are nice as well but have a limited budget and are crunched for time for the projects.
Thinking about it as I type this, it could be very beneficial for the Blender Foundation to do a training/advertisement annually. Basically taking on a real contract, and using a mix of professional blender artists, and those wishing to take that next step.
It would benefit in a few ways, money from the client to support the Blender Foundation for even bigger projects requiring coders. Possibly tuition from these aspiring artists, which further helps. As well as training more artists to do professional ad work in Blender. With greater exposure it should begin to make even more studios take a first or second look at blender as much more cost effective and viable solution for studios.
I think I've likely said more than enough :D so I'll stop here.
Cheers
The open projects are all about evaluating the blender feature set and pipeline and setting new development targets.
You can't do that in commercial projects because they are much more crunching for time within budget. Everything has to be finished yesterday when you're working for a client, delivering the requiered qualitiy.
I wasn't suggesting doing it as a replacement for open movies.
Congratulations!
It's more breathtaking, than Hypnotoad! Outstanding!
*indistinctive voice* "All hail to the Hypnotoad!" :-)
DzzzzZzzzz (sound of the Hypnotoad convincing us all)
Blender on Linux to make VFX?
I would love to work for this company!
me too...I would apply for this company
Wow! There is nothing more to say :)
Glad to see this reel! Impressive work. Yet, that humble box of corn starch.was a good bid for business. LOL
One small nit-- if I may venture a wee comment on such a superior reel:
I enjoyed looking at the reflected lights moving over the jet, until the cut with the logo, at 02:02
I lost my suspended belief here, momentarily. I was surprised by my reaction and wondered why. Like the moving construction crane in the first sequence, might some incidental animated object at proper scale make the airplane look less like a model in this shot...?
Help looking for my mouth plz!! Damn that's was a freaking good demoreel
Going to be emailing this to my old boss, who I time and time again, proved Blender was able to "hang" with the big boys in the industry. This demo reel again shows that. Excellent work, what I would do to be on your team.
Typical VFX Demo Reel. Could easily be shortened by at least 2 minutes.
please surprise us with something outstanding from you or shut up, and go to the cinema ;)
Speak for yourself - I enjoyed every minute of it.
BIG +1, still push/violate the button pause and play :)
Typical unregistered user, making glib comments in an attempt to be deliberately provocative.
How about you shorten your life by hanging yourself...that should take about two minutes?
Don't listen to clowns like these, the video reel was fun, enjoyable, and artistically inspiring.
A VFX Demo Reel needs to show work, and is about that. IF it was a editing reel sure, it could be shortened by 2 minutes. But this is just my opinion and that's what we all do here. When we say... "Hey, this is just typical!" maybe it's just because it works. Most of the times this is the most important thing for being a Digital Artist: Make it WORK :))))
Very nice work!
Amazing, great demo reel. However every time that I see amazing productions like this one, I notice that they have always used an external render. Honestly I think Blender is capable of everything, from modelling to great animation, but I can't say the same when talking about the render part. Neither Blender Internal nor Cycles do not produce this type of shine in depth renders like octane among others.
he said they used also Cycles
I n c r e d i b l e !
That's the most impressive professional Blender usage I've ever seen.
It's amazing!
ups my last message has been eliminated
Amazing Professional Blender usage, the best I have seen!
Congratulations!
It's very impressive ! all done with blender.. and so professionnal.
Amazing, Real pro level. I feel both humbled and inspired. Thank you.
Shiny, very nice stuff chaps
love it, always wondering what hardware small companies like yours use to render en preview this cool stuff in HD. I always feel like a snail when i render & preview stuff on my I-(can't use cuda)-mac. love to here...
Love it, great reel guys. Can't tell you how pumped I get seeing other studio's using Blender in advertising.
great
muy muy bueno!!! felicitaciones!!! me inspiran mucho!
and now there are no reasons to avoid blender in a studio! i don't think there could be a better demoreel made with any other software...
this is great stuff ! well done !
Exellent promotion for blender i think.....amazing !
With After Effects??
oh wow!
I saw that little crab and couldn't help laugh thinking about that crab on DBZ Abridged Episode 27. Boss demo reel, by the way.
Muito Interessante, é legal mostrar coisas que as vezes passam despercebidas.
Congratulations, beautiful work.
