Submission + - NVIDIA Premieres "The Plush Life" (hothardware.com)
bigwophh writes: "To showcase the advanced rendering features of
NVIDIA's Gelato GPU-accelerated
rendering software, Timothy Heath and his team from the NVIDIA Digital Film
Group put together a short film dubbed "The Plush Life" featuring Lundo and
Flint, two plush characters with a penchant for joyriding in their 1969 Buick
Electra. The Plush Life is the first release in a planned series of
animated short films created with Gelato using some of its more advanced
features like subsurface scattering, depth-of-shadows, and a new shader technology
used to create the velvety appearance of the "Flint" character.
HotHardware has more information regarding the short film and an array of
impressive screenshots that are as good as any animated feature film released to
date."
