I love the way it wakes up in the morning!

Utterly fantastic and relaxing. Now I want a ten-hour version.

Superb. It looks like some of this is manually animated (like some of the accelerations down the slopes), but then there are some apparent real physics going on elsewhere (like in the shallow oval pan with two holes in the bottom near the middle of the setup). Is that the case? And are some of the spheres actually rotating or just sliding? (you can’t tell due to the mirror material). Anyway, great job!

Thanks! :grinning: All spheres move by themshelves. The only thing animated is the lift structure. In my previous videos some of them are actually sliding so I increased fiction this time to make sure they roll. Some viewers have the same comment about the mirror material, I’ll try to add some texture next time:)

Thanks you! The lighting setup is very simple. One giant overhead light, one key light on the left, one fill light on the right and point light inside buildings and mine.

This is amazing. I wish i knew how to make something like this.
