Description:


    Decay never looked so beautiful as it does in this short movie for the Discovery Channel. “Carbon Footprint” is one of the most believable time-lapse sequences achieved with completely digital techniques. It features photo-real snow and ice in extremely minute detail as it presents the spectacular decomposition of a soda can over 50 years. The production team used a wide variety of techniques and tools, including projection mapping, HDRI, high-resolution models, global illumination, and in-house shaders, all in one seamless camera shot.
