The Cherry Orchid - Music Video

Uploaded .
4
125

Here is another quick glimpse at ideas from my huge “Fractal Serenity” music video project, still in progress. This particular music-video is a “character study” of one of the strange plants that grows in this dream… the “Glass Orchid”.

The “Fractal Serenity” music was initially completely computer-generated, then I massaged and re-wrote areas by hand to soften some of the rough edges, and this harsh-and-soft dreamy music will be lengthened and reworked into the soundscape for the full-length music video of the same name.

The computer graphics were hand-coded in the C-like computer text language of the freeware POV-Ray ray-tracer software… I still don’t use modelers, but instead type this all up by hand.

And as always, there’s a bit of (Russian) wordplay in the title. I hope you enjoy the surreal dreamy ride!

The video looks much better in high quality, you may want to click here to view it directly on my YouTube page and push the [HQ] button to see a crisper bigger version of the music video.

Great mix of music and ray tracing. I like the sun setting on the horizon. My studio door is open and the wind is blowing......my wind chimes are chiming. Very nice music.
