Daring Fireball linked to this short film a while back and it’s been sat in my open tabs ever since. So when I finally got around to watching it today, I had entirely forgotten what it was. The sudden memory, about halfway through, that this is entirely computer graphics*, blew my mind.
Even more impressive, it’s entirely the work of a single person: Alex Roman. He even orchestrated and sequenced the music.
Remarkable.
