Fabulous video and story (though I did guess it 3/4 the way through). What great 3D building tools!

I wonder why the caption describes the actor as a “strange man”

@Alan: I was wondering about ‘strange” myself, but passed if off as the often ambiguous descriptors writers would give early Sci-fi literary pieces. For instance, I remember a lot of Twilight Zone episodes having really odd descriptions as to not give away the mystery of the plot. I’m not sure if it worked this time, as I figured it out as well. However, I think it may have less to do with the way Branit put this together, and more to our exposure of the genre.

Wow! What an amazing video! I could see why it would take 2 years to produce. I loved the message behind the video as well!
