I am throwing one out quickly to stainless, the people who made carmagedon as they are after level designers. The best bit is they are just up the road from me. If nothing happens there, I guess I will send it out to most companys in the uk

I am getting my showreel done at double quick pace as I am wanting to get it sent off to a company tonight.

There is no "design" as such on the website, its just a list of my stuff. Its still wip so the links may not work, and you cant get from the main page to the showreel as yet.
Looking for some feedback see if there is anything major I have missed.

Finished animation, windows movie maker has arsed up the borders, I cant be bothered to work out why, so you will have to put up with funny borders.

Update, added some stuff, tweaked some stuff.

Might have to imagine grass and crap on it. I know what you mean, at the moment it does not work right, I am assuming my plan will sort it out.
-
Work in progress shot, this is down in the basment, large vaulted ceiling above. Trying to make it dingy, but not so dingy it does not sit well with the other shots.
Need to think of a few props to make to put down here. I am planning on having some weeds and grass growing between the cracks in the tiles.

You do get a feeling of a achievement doing stuff the hard way in hammer though.

I am some what stuck here. I run 2 lcd screens, a dell and a viewsonic. They both show the colours slightly differently, I have also had a look on an old crt. At the moment I am kind of aiming for a middle ground where they look ok across the board.

Bit of an update, still plodding my way through a mountain of props I need to make.
I am working on the next scene as we speak, I have most of the props done and in the scene. The scene itself still needs work, I need to sort out the shadows as well.
Images had to be scaled down, I got myself a shiny new dell 22" widescreen so they come out at a loveley 1680x1050 by default. For the animation I will be cropping down to 16:9
It apears I managed to crop a few pixels off the top picture as well

It is not done yet, I cant do all the shots till I have all the scenes set up.
-
I am exporting tgas from demos in game. The animation is of the building, so its shots taken straight from the engine. There wont be any characters or anything, its purely based on the environment.
-
Its inspired by lots of photos from urban explorers.
-
To save flooding the pimping thread, I shall keep all my stuff for my animation in here.
I have started on an inside shot, its still blocky at the moment. I plan on making some models for the colapased roof and floors.
*edit*
I am adding new iamges to this post as they are posted on the end of the thread.
