The 1K Project II

Report

1000 Races were recorded and displayed simultaneously for this unique and absolutely stunning video.

This video was created using the video game Trackmania Sunrise.
First Released in March 2006, it was made famous in September 2006 when the video was shown at GameTrailers.com where it reached, in spite of the poor quality of the flash format, over 1.5 million views.
Now, thanks to the power of Azureus and Zudeo (little advertising ;) ), you can download the full quality film in seconds.
Enjoy

-------------------------

The "Additionnal Info" tab doesn't seems to work yet so here are more details about this video.

Directed by : BlackShark (yes that's me)

Track designed by : Amraphendt & BlackShark

Replays by : BlackShark (920) Amraphendt (80)

Skins (Car painting) by : Nadeo (Game developper) & Tom Fuel

Mediatracking (Camera management) Rendering and Editing by : BlackShark

Rendering Machine : AMD Athlon XP2000+ - 1GB RAM - nvidia 6600 GT 128MB

It took me about 6 month to complete it (though i didn't spend all my free time on the project). But the hardest part wasn't driving, grabbing the video out of the game was more of a challenge : fortunately, Nadeo (the game developper) provided all players a special feature which allowed me to shoot the video at constant framerate rather than realtime.
With this tool, i was able to push the graphics to the maximum (except shadows).
Rendering took 4 whole days to complete (24h a day), i couldn't push my old computer any furether.
It took me a week to find the right soundtrack but then the editing was quite quick : i made it in one day.

This video i quite precious for me since i lost all the original files in a tragic hard drive magnet erasing accident.
