The liquid “Hydrogen” fueled the engine of the new “BMW Hydrogen 7″. Therefore, turning the new advert for the luxury cars to water. And where water is, is RealFlow…
PICTORION the plant took over the post production of commercials and designed for some “hyper-real” Water simulation.
“Clean Energy” was the message to the team PICTORION convey the work in the BMW spot wanted. The task was to represent the unlimited power of Naturgewallten and their use in our Gesellschafft. The nature of use to protect our natural.

It began with a trip to Iceland, where director Jurgen Bollmeyer and his team of gate 11 from Munich, Reference material and turned the light conditions at the Skogafoss waterfalls documented. This material was later combined with 3D Elemneten.

A few weeks before the start of the project began Laskawi Christian, Maya and Realflow Pictorion supervisor at the factory and his colleagues from Düsseldorf, prepare for the effects and post-production setup.
“We first created some RealFlow simulations for the waterfall, splashes, foam and sprays,” – Laskawi said.

“The import of RealFlow particle simulations into Maya is very comfortable,” – Laskawi said.
“Information on the density, Zähflüssigkeit, Pressure and some other parameters influencing the behavior of particles are preserved and used as a "per-Particles" attributes in Maya. In conjunction with expression scripts which particles could be controlled in an appropriate manner and geshaded. "
