Harrison Krix, is a rather skilled prop maker. At least he seems to know his way around “sculpting, resin casting, chroming and vacuum forming” – and that’s an awful lot more than we even understand. So, when commissioned to produce an exact replica of Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo’s famous Daft Punk helmet, Krix didn’t baulk at the idea – or perhaps he did at first – but set about spending the next 17 months (yes, 17) doing so, with of course, many trials and tribulations along the way.
Love this, but especially when the 3D models are in the ‘real world’ environments. The space shots on the site don’t really carry the effect as well. Click the images for a larger view.

The iPod Wall from welikesmall on Vimeo.
We Like Small built a wall made from 20 iPods and built an app that display photos from a library randomly across all iPhones or as a large image split between iPhones. Future releases will allow all sorts of external user interaction.
Plenty of blurb on the Vimeo site.
They’ve got a nice website too – http://www.welikesmall.com

Super Mario Bros. from Andreas Heikaus on Vimeo.
Another awesome thesis project.
Blurb: The Super Mario Bros. game, released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, is not longer bound to the television size and get interactive with a new environment. The emphasis of my thesis is on the matchmoving work. It is the process of matching CG elements into live-action footage.
