Here is personal animated experimental project I was working on for practice, most fun thing for me was that I did not intended it to be that way. It all started from the idea of making a simple Brutalist concrete kitbash set of the architectural parts made mostly out of simple geometrical pretextured blocks, so I could make random Brutalist buildings for backgrounds for my scenes fast. (I adore Brutalist architecture)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I made first pieces of intended set of this kitbash and decided to test it out, to see how the buildings and structures using this set will look like and what variants can I get using it. Like legos. And then I decided to see how much my textures are optimizing the scene If I make it animated, so I made few buildings using only bunch of blocks out of this set (because I did not want to spend much time on a silly experiment like this) and decided to animate a camera movement around it. And that's where a substance well known to us all had hit the fan... I decided that just making a boring flight through camera moving around is...you guested it... plane boring, so I decided to make a video like first person found footage, and make a creepy atmosphere with volumetric fog and stuff, to make the dystopian heavy vibes. and after that I decided that the video is still boring and I need more stuff and I decided to make a quick flying robot design to fly around between the buildings in a menacing and spooky way. so yeah that`s how this experiment happened. The Brutalist kit bash set is still work in progrogress and I`ll be making more elements to it and working on the textures some more. Scene stills and scene animations were done in Blender Eevee engine.

This time I did not make a music for it, the amazing music is by very talented ArctSound from Pixabay:

Few blocks of my Brutalist kitbash set I`m working on, the set at this moment is bigger but here are the bunch of pieces I used to construct ALL of the buildings present in the scene. And the pipes where done specially for this scene to add some color.
Here is an example of the building I constructed using Only the pieces I mentioned above, all other buildings basically were reusing and recombining the same elements.
