In February of 2024 I challenged 3D artists to create a unique piece of art based around a simple provided template co-created by @shapiro500. In 1 month, I received 2,800 entries, from 104 countries, totaling 21.5 years of communal work. For this montage, I curated my top 100 renders, accompanied by original music from @Feverkin

[@Niural]

It's just mindblowing to be able to imagine entire backstory of a world and how it operates just by watching 5 seconds of it.

[@desmondinwang599]

my exact thoughts

[@Niural]

That entire world, all of its unique rules, all of its characters, all of its history before that 5 seconds snapshot, all of them just fills your mind naturally and you can connect the dots. You don't need to put all these ideas and feelings into words. They just suddenly exist in your brain as a whole after watching for 5 seconds. You can write a whole book for each of these worlds if you really want. That is just magical.

[@GrantOberhauser]

I was going to comment the same thing! Such dense world building, it's incredible.

[@vkjaencjhewbacjenajcean]

To expand, I think that shows the viewers imagination is just as magical as the talent of the contributing artists. Absolutely love these videos!

What's astonishing is that this is your brain doing all the math and storytelling with a little help from some cgi 😊

[@TheNiroBlack]

I didnt notice at first but a friend pointed it out 7:49. At first glance its a boy being playful and balancing a ball on his head while climbing stairs however he has his hands raised and a bomb is strapped to his back walking towards the soldiers 😢. Its so deep

[@maryastutzman5654]

7:27 this one for some reason is one of the most realistic ones. This 3D walk is very slow and almost heavy. So when some of them are in battle and they are walking so slow it doesn’t quite look right. But this one, she is so weighed down by the weight of her child’s death that her walk matched her mood.

4:38 is so chilling. The grim reaper just casually walking up to his next victim. Especially seeing that help had arrived, but so had death.

[@mm-hl7gh]

yea this stood out to me too.. so much story in this short clip

[@ElJorro]

I thought it was serial killer

[@zerudaa]

starting from the samurai before that, it was back to back bangers. that portion of the vid was all dark in tone and im all for it.

[@danhair]

That does look a bit haunting. I see it in 2 ways: 1. It's death approaching to bring the end of suffering for the person who had a car accident. 2. we see the firefighters or ambulance arriving and the grim reaper approaching. So it's the race between life and death to see who can reach them first and death seems almost merciful because he could have hurried when he saw the ambulance but he is still walking calmly and patiently.

[@edofluit6568]

​@@harry.t9523 yeah, my favourites of these are those that feel like a really well-thought through original concept, like this one.

[@HoldimProvae]

5:37 I'm so glad that my render made it into the Top 100 montage :) my concept of the Roman dodecahedron emerged from the mystery surrounding its actual usage. Continuously refining my ideas, conclusively, I aimed to portray it as a power of creative inspiration that aiding us in overcoming obstacles and continuing ascent metaphorically, and I expressed it through Hellenistic Geometry. I enjoyed refining my ideas during the challenge and look forward to another enjoyable experience next time. Congratulations to all participating artists!

@@egormykhailov7639 I used the collapsed statue models and background roman columns from quixel megascan assets, and I purchased the scholar character model from cgtrader.

And AI will consume those ideas so it can regurgitate them for someone else in a slightly different way.

[@joshwongwai3532]

⁠@@dogelife7901while AI might become more prevalent, take pride in knowing that most if not all its ideas that it takes and uses come FIRST from the mind of a human, for we truly are the pioneers of what’s unknown and these simple yet profound short animations is a testimony to what we truly are capable of.

[@Dog.This_Identifier_Is_Shit.]

The sad part is that I had to actually double check sometimes, because the artstyle is so similar to the ones AI uses. It must be really sad to have your work used as some sort of “food” for a computer and then get it known as “generic, AI style”.

[@sculpy2758]

It's scary how many people are willing to fully embrace a synthetic or virtual reality, or a biosynthetic SELF. As a small mercy though, thankfully everyone will be long gone before the machine gets its chance to finish killing off humanity's soul. Turns out, technology can't replace a dead nature, hard as many have been trying.

[@julianmarco4185]

Wow, that looks awesome. I like that the character is so defeated or tired that he doesn't even care that there is a zombie behind him. I hope he makes it though! Great work!!

[@skyflo1208]

Is he going to be OK? 😢

[@Banana_Fusion]

Your one stood out to me, I liked it a lot

[@motahirsajjad8195]

love it,it looks phenomenol. congratulations on making it to top 100

[@renderpeach]

[@Shreyaa_03]

They are all so beautiful! So creative and telling so many stories..ahh! I got tears 😭 ❤

[@anisengupta7790]

I love to see the outcomes....big fan❤..keep doing this kind of challenges 👌🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻

[@ProfSir1]

Under’s creation at 4:57 was one I had to rewatch several times. The highest of congratulations to every artist involved. You all created something that will outlive you.

[@_kaleido]

I love the storytelling in 0:32, you can nearly hear the speech that guy is about to give to the fallen king

[@rendratvandonkereschrijver2912]

who says he going to give a speech. Also love how in transition into the warrior princess dragging her sword out of blood

[@alexharrison2743]

I didn't realise first time through that he's holding the crown in his hand, and the disdainful look he gives it is a fantastic detail!

[@mohannadbaghlaf7746]

One of the best videos I’ve seen in my life, absolutely stunning!

[@beatwasherdotnl]

One of my favorite things to look forward to on yourube. This one as amazing as previous ones ❤

[@lordpeasent9305]

1:29 goes unbelievably hard

[@heavyrain4485]

I have no word for this. Absolutely stunning.

[@222rune]

i love seeing everyone's visions in these , good work all around

[@vitormd1138]

I'm always hyped for these ones because they always come with a great original soundtrack. I just download the MP3 to have the songs with me lol

[@Snakerfriends]

It’s also a way more interesting than a digital fireplace. I love it.

[@BadLeoG]

just go look up feverkin haha

[@Ant4gon1st]

The music from Infinite Journeys is my showering soundtrack 😂

[@3dsmileCG]

7:38 So cool to see my piece again among all of the amazing art! Conratulations to all of the artists who participated, it was very interesting to see everyone's progress in the discord. I personally learned a lot in this challenge, onto the next one!

[@AC-iz7eh]

Cyberpunk theme?

[@3dsmileCG]

@@AC-iz7eh Yea, it was heavily inspired by Cyberpunk 2077

[@v1ggo1]

​@@3dsmileCGyour's really left a mark, great work keep it up!

[@thepodbaydoorshal]

This was just absolutely incredible and shows how far 3D art has come… Particularly as I wouldn’t call myself a fan of the medium and yet this managed to build entire worlds and show creativity on a level that I didn’t think was possible with such a brief and basic premise.

[@DocOverlord]

Really amazing collection of fantastic artists - it's mind-boggling how they can show such engaging worlds in just 5 seconds.

[@nickoriy]

2:48 Hey, I remember this guy. He appeared in the Top 100 3D Renders. Infinite Journeys. With the same setting and character.

[@jjcworks]

Oh wow I’m happy you noticed! My idea was to make something as a sequel to my infinite journeys entry :)

[@nickoriy]

@@jjcworks I can say that you did a great job. Who knows, maybe one day it will become a full-fledged story

[@roni2max]

@@jjcworks what's the time stamp for your infinite journeys submission? curious to see it

[@pierrechristen7221]

@@roni2max At 3m46s ish

[@sickduck4470]

it's the guy on the train shooting the zombie!

[@beztyrbotnii]

1:17 got me.

[@alexharrison2743]

The use of colour in that one is GORGEOUS

[@grnman86]

4:00 also. The staircase being built from skulls! There’s just too many amazing ones !

[@jojostalino1377]

I'm litteraly crying. Everyone of them carry so much emotions, yet only with 5sec vidéo that's insane. You guys are extremely talented. You inspire me to work harder and maybe become one of the 100 one day !!

[@sarven5974]

1:44 4:34 is badass 1:53 7:33 FOR CADIAAAA same with 2:07 GUNDAM 7:57!!! So many inspiring and fantastic works

[@JeremyBX]

lol, the Shrek and Donkey one

[@juseschrustfush]

I laughed way too hard at donkey dancing. Perfect ending to all the beautiful and fantastic renders.

[@kitkatt4518]

Simply amazing. Well done 😮❤. I was entranced

[@MegakeepWorks]

This is amazing, breathtaking and incredible all the same time.

[@girigiriboy0124]

Wow everything is just absolutely amazing~! I love this 4:22 one the most! It kinda reminds me of the game It Takes Two 🤩

[@calars_art]

5:23 I'm so honored to be a part of this video! It's a dream to be amongst so many amazing works🙌🙌

[@user-bt3um6pj7x]

Amazing work!!

[@scaryjeff]

Having something enter the frame out-of-focus in the foreground is a really unique idea, nice! Also thank Clint for timing the music to the first laser impact ;)

[@heartybeefsoup1277]

Absolutely one of my favorites, surprised it didn't make top 5. Good shit man!

[@doanh2393]

Hello, your work was amazing and it inspired me so much, so may I ask how did you start learning 3D model and where did your motivation/ inspiration to work in the industry come from? Thank u ^^

[@motahirsajjad8195]

Congratulations brooo, it looks awesome dude!

[@aldyshinwa]

What a nice work from all the 3d artists. This is a great compilation 💯🔥

[@garrykim9098]

Spectacular. Absolutely amazing

[@AirWick694]

there's gonna be one with po from kung fu panda climbing evil peacock's tower..

[@WhatDoYouExpectToHappen]

I hope it also add the scene he got kicked down that damned stairs

[@Drslime09]

Oh please lord

[@edwinivcylian9883]

No 😆 unfortunately

[@shantanu9975]

All are amazing submissions. But that 02:30 one is just such an creative idea. Love it.

[@mistergrieves]

Yeah that was top 5 for me

[@younghoono]

Agree! I'm surprised I had to scroll down so much to see someone mention this one.

[@ramenisgood4u]

Yes this was my personal favourite as well. The editor also timed it with the music extremely well.

[@OneWingedAngel202]

just 1 mins into the video and its blowing my mind. Every scene has a story and i deeply want to be a part of. Great job to all artists.

[@RAMZAVFX]

This is so inspiring. good to look at styles other than ur own once and a while, breaks patterns.

[@mrwensveen]

I loved the ones combining 2D and 3D, 2:02, 3:33 and 7:07 (maybe 2:31 as well). 5:38 is so esoteric, fantastic. Every frame from 7:28 is a work of art. Man, I love all of them!

[@IRONDA]

7:00 So happy to have made it into the top 100. I love competitions like this where I can compete with big guys from all over the world,and can also convey one’s own ideas and thoughts.《Save Our Seas》

[@heartybeefsoup1277]

One of my favs, awesome work 🔥

[@finn7453]

Definitely one of my top 3, I need it know your secret
