Pierre Michel was offered what most artists dream of from a client: carte blanche to create whatever he envisioned. The project was to create the opening for the French film festival "Polar dans la ville" ("Polar in the town"), which would be printed to 35mm film and projected at about 40 cinemas around Paris as well as on television.

That's one of the most beautiful pieces of CGI I've seen, I was hoping at first it was the trailer to a real movie ^^ - Thanks a load for explaining the creation process, I'm working a lot with Aftereffects at the moment, and I never thought of some of those techniques,

You are a fine example of "it doesn't matter what tools you have at your disposal, it matters how you use them." Beautiful piece of work.
