POV-Ray Garage

A huge Kudo's goes-out to Gilles Tran for giving us creators the incentive to continue our exploration into the world of 3D rendering. I made good use of Gilles Tran's "maketree" macro (from 1999) to add natures dimension and depth to this POV-Ray animation. Twenty-plus years ago, Gilles Tran blazed a trail with POV-Ray that left many of us padawan-learners struck-motionless and jaw-dropped in amazement of his artwork.

 

The old garage needed some decoration and this addition gave it a much needed taste of home. A gradual adjustment of the angle command allowed me to widen the view angle as this animation rotated around the garage. I'm not sure how those numbers are associated with actual camera lens angles, but I suspect they have some correlation though it may require some math to determine the ratio.

 

I increased the size to 1280x720 and reduced the frame rate to 21 fps. Some fine-tuning is still needed and the garage still needs some finishing details. I must have misplaced the tree behind the garage. The last 100 frames reveals a look through the side-window and some leaves growing inside the garage. šŸ‘€ Oops!

 

Total rendering time: 14.5 hours
