Old Johnny Mnemonic's-like cyberspace test

This is an old short cyberspace test in the style of the Johnny Mnemonic movie. Done in 1997, it was meant to be part of an intro to a CD-ROM-based catalog of products.

The floating "buildings" were done by drawing some silly randomish profiles and paths in Form•Z and sweeping them to get tech-looking shapes. The balls of light are Photoshop ones, animated as short looping movies in After Effects (or Premiere, perhaps) to texture Standard Shapes with (by the way, there is a combination of transparency settings that gives you the equivalent of Photoshop's Screen transfer mode. No need for alpha or luma masks).

The CD-ROM project was cancelled, anyway. I unearthed this today and had to download a Media100 codec to be able to play it. I'd wish to resurrect the project, but it is full of Standard Shape elements, so I'll have to see about installing an old EIAS 2.x somewhere and reexport, I guess.

(Youtube has messed with the gamma again, tsk :dodgy:. I'm testing using other formats to upload)
