Blurring The Lines Between CGI & Reality

I remember watching an episode of BBC's Horizon program over 20 years ago, about the development of computer graphics, and the then incredible speed in which processors worked to conjure up the fantastic image of a ball rolling on a flat surface. Towards the end of the show it aired clips of Pixar's Luxo Jr, which compared to anything else at the time was absolutely breathtaking.



Computer animation has come a long way Toy Story, Shrek, Wall-E, Avatar.. now, watch this TV ad - it is entirely computer generated by Alex Roman from Third Seventh
