@ Phil Steam Effect

Is the steam effect looking better?

The Anxious Journey 1

The Anxious Journey 1 from Charlotte Buchan on Vimeo.

Rendered version of 'The Anxious Journey'. However need to re render it as when put into my pre-vis the clip is a little bit too short. However the more I get these renders out the more I look forward to putting it together.

Opening Sequence 2

Just realized that I put up the wrong video in this post. Changed that XD. Re rendered the opening sequence. The train now moves slower and the tower has some windows and also some flags at the top. The sky has a texture overlaid in an attempt to see if it improved the plain coloured background.

The archway on the left is somewhat bugging me. As you can see when the camera moves it becomes obvious that the geometry simply 'stops' and therefore makes the archway seem rather 'odd'. I thought of mirroring it to extend the archway, however I'm not 100% sure on this idea. Is there anything I could do to improve this?

The Anxious Journey Pre Vis

Have gone back and refined the camera movement in the scene of 'The Anxious Journey'. It's now a lot smoother now and less 'empty' space. All that is left is to add bump maps and lighting.
