CONCEPT. I began by visualizing a 3D custom condo, floating in space amid the San Francisco skyscrapers. Once designed and appointed with minimal furniture and artworks, interior lighting, doors and windows, it was time to add some characters. At about the same time I began composing and recording an urban retro R & B soundtrack. I would go back and forth, some nights work on the soundtrack, some nights work on the 3D animation. The search for characters came to me..the first was a robot, the second was a humanoid; they look great together. I began to bring them into the condo and put them together in various settings within the condo. I have always had an interest in flying; many dreams where I am a pilot and flying. I always wanted to fly-in from above and circle from a distance and then gradually pull in closer and land right in front of the house. So, I decided to work on that. I attached the camera to the flying spaceship in three different locations and created a circular flight path around the condo floating in the sky. I rendered sections, each 10 second piece took approximately 3 hours to render. Once I had the 3D rendered, I began editing the final video, adding the scenes to the music and created the opening and ending title cards. Once the full video was produced, I cut it up into six pieces to create the six parts as individual NFT’s and the seventh being the full video itself. All with the support and help of my partner Donna Freeberg at ShoutOut3D, we now present the WORLD PREMIERE of CANDLEBOTS in their first Episode “SKYRIDE”. This NFT is PART 5 OF 6. Now YOU can take a SKYRIDE with the CANDLEBOTS, collect all the parts and the full video too!
