I consider this a teaser trailer to a longer animation I am planning. This video is basically me testing my workflow and ironing out the kinks of quality and render time for Cheetah v7 (for which I am a beta-tester), and I think I have it nailed and am ready to tackle developing the sequence more.

 

Every element of this video (except for the lens flare at the very end) was originally created and rendered in Cheetah 3D as a separate video element. I then used Pixel Conduit (a node based compositor like NUKE) to composite these elements and refine them into the final video. Enjoy. More to come.
