Hi everyone.
After my last personnal project, I wanted to make a short film of this. Of course I used Corona.
The biggest problem was render time. I watched around Renderfarm but it was too expensive for a personal project. So I decided to render on my own computer.
I only have one computer with an i7 6800k. I set the rule not to exceed 20 minutes of rendering per frame, and I used the corona Denoiser to delete the noise.
((70s of film x 25 frames)x20min)/60 -> around 580 hours of rendering for my poor computer :D Now I'm waiting my electricity bill :D
So this is the result.
ps: I don't know how to make a thumbnail image

I think that it's great result, especially because denoise.
In 20 minutes/frames, with this CPU, it's very good.
Your scene is not so easy to calculate, you have a lot of 3d DOF and complex GI.
Yes, we can see some artifacts, but they don't disturb too much.
NICE!
For the Thumbnail, just add an attachment on your thread
About bill... You told us 580 hours = 24 days.
You PC can eat 400 Watt (more or less) = 0.4 KW (you can use a Wattmeter to know exactly how much energy he eats)
0.4 KW * 580h = 232 KWh
If we assume that 1 KWh = 0.2 Euro => 232*0.2 = 46.4 Euro

Thank you very much cecofuli.
Some camera shot have DOF in 3D and some others have DOF with AfterAffect. I had to cheat to save time.
I added an attachment image.
46 euros, it's cool :D And passion has no price :D

Beautiful animation, love the camera work and lighting. Nice music choice as well, went with the shots nicely. :- )

Thank you melsivo.

simply magnificent

I really liked all the subtle tricks with DOF, reflections, camera movement. Great work! The frame quality could be better, but since it's a personal project rendered on a budget PC, there is nothing to complain about.
-
Thank you so much guys ! :)
@maru: Yes, I wanted to render a little bit longer on each frame to have less noise, but I was running out of time for the CG Archi Award.
It's was the biggest challenge :)

Cool man! great lighting and texturing!
May I ask you, how do you obtain that sublte particle effect I've seen in the very first frames of the video, Is an after effect plug in?
Thank you for your sharing
Best

Thank you!
Particle affect are simply footages of particles in screen mode.
