Top 100 3D Renders from the Internet's Biggest CG Challenge | Infinite Journeys

To support more montages like this, consider becoming a patron 🙏🏼 / pwnisher
During February 2022, I challenged 3D artists with the Infinite Journeys 3D challenge, where I provided artists with a simple animation of a moving "vehicle" and they built out their own customs scenes. Of the 2,448 entires, the top 100 were chosen for this montage, and 5 of them walked away with insane prizes from Maxon, Rokoko, Camp Mograph, Wacom, Looking Glass Factory, and mograph.com.

5:11 is my absolute favourite. I love how much of a contrast it provides. From the stream of people going backwards (also implying that the main character is moving forward) to the fact that she is having her own "Infinite Journeys" through the books she had around her. Sometimes you just need to be alone in a corner somewhere with a good book to relax and be away from the hustle and bustle of life.

[@wisemonkey6716]

This one is my favorite too, the glowing orange light is so beautiful idk how they came up with that, it reminds me of games like inside and little nightmares somewhat. Most of all though it feels really gloomy and mysterious, like theres something strange going on

So many deserved shout outs, like the one where the perspective was flipped and we were looking at a glass bottom floor or the phone pictures one for subverting our expectations, as well as every ghiblicore one, but 8:30 hit me like a sledgehammer. As a big ffxiv fan, knowing all the context behind this shot left me speechless. Bravo.

[@marvelouslee4427]

instead of listing my favs based on visual appeal I’m going to mention the ones that gripped me emotionally: 2:01 the human is so expressive! Like the joy in the fist pump and the twinkle in the eye. The movement felt so energetic yet so subtle. Made me happy for them when though I had no idea wtf was going on 3:47 their posture and the simplicity of not lifting their head almost had me in tears. That is a level of exhaustion and emptiness that I have felt in my bones 4:57 ngl, this one only caught my eye after rewatching to make this list. Just the “Go Back” instead of the typical “cancel” got me. Of course the implication of deleting memories is sad, but the fact that keeping them wouldn’t be just “saving the good times” but escaping the pain of now 5:02 the face of pure terror. Like, even in death they couldn’t find peace

5:14 and 1:03, 3:12, 6:16 3:47 and 5:26 are my faves. I really love how 5:14 and 6:33 tell a story. The coloring is stunning on 5:14 and 1:03. 3:12 has some amazing visuals. 3:47: The feeling we get that this character has been through hell and lost everything in the process is nice. 6:16 feels really chill. And I like how vibrant 5:26 is. (Sorry for the long list. I really couldn't pick just one).

Hey, Clint. Big fan from the Corridor days, glad to see that you're doing well and making your way in the world. I gotta tell you, man, I was having a really bad day. I came across your channel randomly whilst scrolling and trying to deal with a bad tension headache, saw the Boss Fight video and now this, and no joke, whilst I'm still in pain and facing a bit of a crisis, I'm grateful for the way you showcase so much amazing art and encourage the best in people, and I just wanted to thank you for it and for being a beacon of hope and inspiration to those of us in need of it. You bring so much joy and happiness to others and it's always worthwhile when we are at our lows to be thankful for the little things. Like loops of people on a journey into mystery. Keep taking her easy, dude. 😊
