The entry "music" (in particular the drum instrument) is a catastrophy, and the background noise of the city life is far too loud. / I do not think the old senatorial families and others who made Rome great and prosperous liked this tasteless monster-monument - in particular its shifting next to the Circus Maximus (which was the idea of idiots). The destruction of this monster (though not for aesthetic reasons) must have been a real blessing. Unfortunately, its destruction was also accompanied by the destruction of Rome.

Remarkable 😮 what really strikes me is the crowd noise from above. And it's all purely the noise of people. No cars, sirens, radios, motorcycles, aircraft or any other machinery . Great touch!

[@project-moment]

The feeling of immersing yourself in this moment

[@renatovonschumacher3511]

The crowd noise from so hgh above is ways too loud !

[@nancytestani1470]

[@project-moment]

Many thanks Roberto

[@marksiezure3285]

The vendor stalls outside the coliseum during the games was an extremely nice touch.....also the crowd noise.

[@EzequielAnselmo]

Man... it' just AMAZING all the details in your work: music, landscape, urban noise... the light. You're an artist. ❤🔥

[@project-moment]

Thanks a lot 🙏🙏

[@chaeyeonieearts]

THANK YOU. its so refeshing to see an alive recreation where people are there it feels alive compared to others. you actually see the city being used, the others feel too sterile ,,,,

[@project-moment]

Tahnk you very much! 🙏 What would Rome be without the people?

[@chaeyeonieearts]

@@project-moment a ghost town, or as it was after the gothic wars /halfjoke really though, as someone who enjoys ground scale or the human perspective (im working on a history project not unlike this and i tend to take ground level renderings more) this is a massive refreshment. its nice to be able to experience and witness a bustling rome from the old days, getting to see the life of daily people even if its with aerial shots like these 🤍🥺 like. if i remember correctly, rome had a massive population density (for something considered a medium size town today, it had a million people residing within) at its peak, but this is the only 3D recreation i saw that made me feel that density ---

[@project-moment]

Thank you very much for your kind words. Yes, it must have been an overwhelming miracle for everyone back then. Even we, despite New York or Tokyo, would probably be speechless in the face of the opulence of ancient Rome

[@m.shearer5233]

The Best looking I have seen so far

[@joangordoneieio]

Glad I fond your channel! Keep up this interesting content!

[@project-moment]

Thank you very much! We still have a lot planned

[@alexball3642]

I was amazed about the photos of this statues pedestal still existing in 1930.

[@David-pd4ll]

Nice, Love it🤩👍

[@cassidamike6914]

Nice video, but historically wrong..the Face of the Statue of Nero has been changed to Sol Invictus by Vespasian…it never had the Face of Nero next to the newly built Colosseum…

[@project-moment]

Thank you! The face was even transformed several times. For example, Commodus himself immortalized himself as Hercules in the statue. After Nero's death, who had immortalized himself in the statue, Vespasian pragmatically rededicated it as the "neutral" Sol Invictus.

[@morgothfromangband6082]

​@@project-momentCommodus was basically the Stalin of the ancient world. 💪

[@EdwardM-t8p]

Constantine also remodeled the statue after himself and reportedly put a fragment of the "true cross" within.

[@UltorCXXVIII]

Breathtaking, what a dream!

[@project-moment]

Thanks a lot 🙏🙏🙏

[@apexerman1]

What is the software used to create the animations? Unreal Engine?

Podróż w czasie❤

[@elijah5791]

I thought the colossus of Nero was torn down before the construction of the colosseum?

[@robertocalzado35]

Constantin´s Arch was not yet built in 283 AD. It was built in 315.

[@이경남-z4b]

that's exactly what i would like to say

[@MikiKotevski]

Statute that big is too much for me. I’m not Nero. It’s for everyone

[@imrichmilo3738]

Coloseum was built after Nero bro, there was his Golden palace lake

[@EdwardM-t8p]

The Colossus has the glutes it's got because Nero was a versatile or a bottom. (Read Suetonius & Cassius Dio's histories about him before you hurl objections and insults!)

[@Shcreamingreen]

To be fair Suetonius considered almost every emperor a bottom

[@mariajolantapiskorowska3152]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mpetersen6]

The original Biggus Dickus

[@TarpeianRock]

This came from the Faber Courtial guys didn’t ?

[@project-moment]

so it is 😉

[@islandnites]

Was this Nero guy a little bit nerdy maybe? jes askin?

[@globilus]

Firstly, I must commend you on your remarkable creation. It's truly unique and impressive, unlike anything I've seen before. Considering the views it has garnered on KZbin, it's clear that it's highly underrated. However, I suspect that won't be the case for much longer. Now, let's address the historical accuracy: In AD 283, the statue of Nero was known as the 'Colossus Solis' for over two centuries. Additionally, the construction of the Arch of Constantine occurred several decades later. Striving for authenticity is essential." 🏛🌟
