10-Second Futuristic Blender Animation

A 10-second, photo-realistic sequence created entirely in Blender will complete the opening of my video project. The shot takes place in a sleek, futuristic cityscape populated with striking high-rise buildings and dynamic vehicles gliding through the scene.

Key notes on the brief
• Look & feel: realistic lighting, materials, and camera work—think Cycles with physically-based shading rather than stylised or toon rendering.
• Scene content: only the buildings and vehicles are required; no robots or characters this time.
• Duration: exactly 10 seconds, smooth playback suitable for 24–30 fps editing.
• Asset ownership: all meshes, textures, HDRIs, and .blend files remain editable so I can tweak colours or add logos later.

Deliverables
• Final rendered clip (H.264 .mp4, 1920×1080 or higher)
• Clean .blend file with all packed assets
• A brief text file outlining render settings and any third-party add-ons used

Acceptance criteria
– Lighting and materials read as believable when viewed frame-by-frame.
– No major noise, flicker, or clipping across the full 10-second timeline.
– Buildings and vehicles match a coherent futuristic style and scale relative to each other.

Attach a quick viewport playblast or still frame with your proposal so I can confirm direction before you move to final render.
