Kevin Parry Inspiration

Personally I’m a huge fan of Kevin Parry, everything he makes blows my mind. And the most fun thing about his creations is figuring out how he did it. We already did multiple videos on his effects and to be honest every video was a challenge to recreate. But it also made learn a ton of new stuff. And that’s the power of inspiration. Kevin Parry inspires me to explore new techniques and improve myself.

But besides being an inspiration, Kevin also is a true stop motion artist. he even worked on one of my favourite movies, Kubo and the two strings. He did a lot of stop motion work on this video and again it’s super impressive. I definitely recommend everybody to see this movie!

Beat Saber Commercial

Now for todays video we got the inspiration from the commercial Kevin Parry made for the Oculus Quest 2. Here you can see him floating and playing the Beat Saber game in his own VR world. Well we took this to the next level and recreated the entire game while Jordy was floating in it.

After making this video we learned a super important lesson that we will never forget. Rendering 3D scenes takes a lot of time, like a whole lot. I think we rendered for over 72 hours for the entire project. So you can imagine that there was no room for errors and luckily we didn’t had any that we to big. But still it was all super stressful and next time we will definitely look for a way to render faster.
