Audi R8: Cool CG's from an enthusiast

The guy who made these CG's has some real talent and definitely some love for the Audi R8. Great work!

What does it take to create these effects? It's a combination of technical understanding and artistic intelligence. In some ways its the same ingredients that are required to be a top professional photographer, only the tools are much different. Like a Hollywood special effects team, an automotive artist will employ many different programs to produce the final product.

What people probably do not realize is how time-consuming it is to produce an initial automobile model on the computer. A well-detailed computer model will often take hundreds of hours to create. The good news is that once a complete car model is finished is stands at the artist's disposal, ready to maneuver into any visual scenario at the touch of a button.

Imagine you're the boss of the Audi Marketing Department and you have promotional stills of the new A6 travelling at stupendous speeds, but now you now want a shot of it diving underwater too? No problem, with the computer you can make it happen. You won't even have to pay for wetsuits!
