My daughter left a toy robot of Wall-E on my desk yesterday and it gave me the inspiration to make one of my own. I’ve named him Digg.R (pronounced digger), a dirt digging robot.

This is a rough render I did to work out the motions and what not. I used Cinema 4d with the Sketch and Toon plug-in. (I really love that app).

Hopefully if time permits I will tweak it and add more realism like the real Wall-E. As always, I’ll keep you posted.

Here is another video I have created of a UFO. It is the same model I used in the Jupiter Lighthouse UFO with the exception of the lights on it. And unlike the Jupiter UFO, the whole scene was done in Cinema 4d. The trees, the houses and the environment. All the post effects (camera blur, zoom and fade) were done in After Effects.

I got the actual guys talking from another UFO video on YouTube. I then mixed the vocals with the craft sounds, the dogs and the sirens in Audacity.

I am hoping to come out with a tutorial at some point on how I achieved each effect. I am also going to start on another UFO video that will hopefully blow these last two out of the water. You only get better with practice. I guess that’s it, oh and if your wondering what gave me the idea for all of this check out ManBird12000. His videos are great and he is the one who started the Haiti UFO video craze. I would love to have done something like that but everyone is pretty well informed with what a little talent and the right programs can deliver.

I created this video using film from my back yard looking at the Jupiter Lighthouse (behind the trees). This is the first video of its kind that I have created and wanted to see how hard it could be after seeing the Haiti UFO footage.

The UFO was created and textured in Cinema 4d v. 9. Video and Post Effects were done using Adobe After Effects.
