OddBeast has shared with AWN their motion design production of the opening film for Half Rez 2025, which aims to visually express the collective anxieties of creatives who face an uncertain future as emerging tools and technologies reshape their industries. In the film, visuals of barren yet eerily majestic landscapes take viewers back to Earth’s origins, giving way to the explosion of life. “For this project in particular, I was inspired by Carl Sagan and his own personal philosophy,” added Gautraud. A grant to OddBeast from the Render Network Foundation allowed the team to render scenes quickly using their RNDR network platform. Check out the opening film now:Source: Oddbeast
