Oh God that is a very enjoyable experience! The B&W look is great, and the music flowed in a direction I actually didn't expect. You @noby raise the bar on every single intro you work in!!!
The Finnish version of Elevated.
Few months ago, i thought about an intro about a planet in 4k. I started to dream for it like how to execute it, how to show it from space and how to show the planet environments and another things. Sadly since i couldn't code an intro, the idea was lost between my dead ideas.
But you make it. And It's awesome! The Scenes, Directions, Soundtrack. Everything is awesome. And as a big fan of RGBA and TBC's Elevated, This intro talked to me.
Fuck you noby! You rulez! <3

Unbelievable...
Absolutely stunning. Superb direction, music (esp. the instrumentation) and visuals that could easily stand on their own in any other category (including rendered motion graphics). The fact that there's a coherent story is just icing on the cake. Really nice to watch, sucks you right in and doesn't let go. And it runs well. And the swell at the end clips _just_ enough.. :) Somehow I love this even more than Absolute Territory.
Nitpicks: technically mostly variations of super basic geometry with some (in some areas quite lowres-looking) procedural materials, iteration glow and DoF which with _any_ sharper depth gradients would look _really_ bad (and it definitely rides this fine line with the two spherical bodies if you look at the edges - luckily the framing is nice enough that you're not really supposed to look there) - but yet again, none of that matters at all. (and the title isn't as good as Absolute Territory, but I digress.. :D)
It feels like watching a meticulously crafted magic trick, where even though the method is simple all of the misdirection and patter are so flawlessly executed that even if a trained eye sees right through it, you're still left with a wonderful feeling inside and wanting more. A good reminder that in the scene there's plenty of room for an entire spectrum of productions ranging from mad effects shows to, well.. magic. :)
So yeah.. bra fucking vo :)
P.S. What was that about 4k not being enough for proper camera/sync/direction again?

It's a bit on the boring side of things for me, but i dare anyone not thumb it up. The music sounds ossom.

gShaderReplacer fix for more compliant (ie non-nvidia) opengl implementations:
Only thing I'm not too happy about is the cheap liquid, though it works better in the blurred parts - maybe it could be better in a bit more gritty, less obvious version.
Apart from that noby just did it again.
Code:
<Application Name="pbr-waillee_1080.exe" Name0="pbr-waillee_720.exe"><StringReplacer Src="if(!c)" Dst="if(c==0)"/></Application>

sound design is perfect
music sounds like a soundtrack
and that planet.. and b/w style (hello digimind - this b/w must won again) ;)
noby you made the greatest thing in 4k

the music and graphical artestry is too dissonant for my taste. a "tv noise" filter overlay would most likely have made me thumb this up. i pay attention to details (even for 4ks). just feel something is missing. i either wont thumb this down because it feels like the coder has put some work into it..
...
t's indeed more a shortfilm than an intro. amazing cold, isolated feeling on the visuals/direction underlined by that wonderful dark ambient'ish music which builds up very good without leaving its path. did not expect those fluid scenes though. fucking amazing :D and then all in 4k.
it's no intro i'm gonna rewatch a lot. it offers atmosphere maybe requiring the right mood. but it definitely is on top of my favourites.
that being said, i take my imaginary hat off to you. well done all around.

love this! personally i find it a bit too slow, but everything works together really well to set the mood.
also, uploaded a 60fps capture, seems a bit less janky than the 'official' one: https://youtu.be/WSVjltKasiw. any chance of getting a version that works properly on ultrawide (21:9) screens?

YESS!
Just great to get down again after a stresst working day. Very good and yes, the soundtrack is ace.
whoaaa :D <3
Scary!
This is in my eyes a brilliant remix (or inspiration-sourced) of the mind-blowing lux aeterna luceat eis by Ephidrena! Impressive!
Fantastic work! Again!
Visually, I only have three little things, that probably had to be so for size reson. The pattern in the liquid is a little bit too repeating/obvious. I found it a bit too long, and since you're in control of the music as well, that's not the reason. The b/w thing isn't really my thing. I know the reasons to do it, but it would be soooo much cooler with at least some kind of color.
Those three things aside (note that at least the two of them are totally subjective and only a matter of taste on my own part) this is truly marvelous!
The instrument design is really, really creat and I was really surprised at the way it develops. Beautiful composition and naturally instruments, composition and visuals works wonderfully as a whole. That's a masterclass at how big an advantage you get when the same person is in charge of everything!
Amazing job, Noby!

true art!
There's some great craftsmanship here (mostly in rendering and instrument design), but the liquid thing felt oddly non-Newtonian with the Perlin pattern a bit too obvious (maybe that was intentional, I don't know), and maybe the pacing was a bit uneven?
Mind=blown.
Funny thing is we had pretty much the same idea for the last part of our "Darkness-trilogy" :D

top-5 4k intros without the usual problems in the sound department, direction and pacing. Long without being boring, repetitive without being a meaningless time filler, has an abstract kind of narrative structure that becomes apparent in the end, form over function. I love it!

what visy says :)
hmmm... proper download link PLZ!
absolutely great.
the instrument design is out of this world.
what Punqtured & Gargaj said about the liquid thing, kind of remind you that it is a "demoscene prod".
thanks for raising the bar in the 4K category again!

hohohoho. what a great piece of moody 4k! <3
Awesome!! <3
It seems like production film.

The places where the repeating piano pattern plays an E on top of a D# based chord are hideous. Aarrgh. Bug-fixed version please. ;)

Nice shots but for me it's too much on the pretentious side of artsy until the shadow comes in in the end (which kind of saved it tho)
Nice
The elevated version of Finnish
Way too long but EVERYTHING else here is top notch. Just a little bit less would have been so much more.
Truly magnificent. Great visuals, direction and music.
The only thing I could possibly complain about is, that you could have left ~30sec or so to the cutting room floor, but that is more of a personal opinion about compactness.

Wow those dunes look really nice. I wonder how you made them?
Overall this production feels more like a short film than an intro for the most part. But I do have to say that the water/smoke scene feels unconnected to the whole production and the way it behaves fairly unrealistically is somewhat distracting, but then again if you had left it out of the production the rest would've felt very static since there's very little movement. So I guess that was a difficult choice to make.
I wouldn't put this above elevated(well at least the first part) but gets really close to it.

Awesome, inspiring. Love the atmosphere. The sounddesign and instruments alone deserve a solid thumb up. The fact that there are lovely visuals on top of it just makes it better. I don't see the comparison with Elevated though, besdies the size and the look. Ok and maybe the fact that in both intros the music is solid. This is much darker, Elevated..well kind of elavates. Both do create an mood in which you can get into some sort of meditative/relaxing state where the mind wonders off.
This really really rocks!
Pretty much what Ferris said regarding nitpicks :) but that's what they are, nothing here that's not shining!

White screen on my R9 200.
great concept - flawless execution
nice but not really my cup of tea. too depressing, slightly boring and b&w.
- a bit boring and the water could look better
+ sounds and looks great
+ sounds and looks great
Hmm. I like what this demo does and shows, but it requires lots of suspension of disbelief.
I see perlin-noise displaced coordinate spaces that I have to consciously ignore. I see iteration glow that thins between the planets. I hear melody patterns that compress well.
If I ignore all these, it's gorgeous. But my coder brain sees too much of the mechanisms behind everything.
Still, solid thumb.

best soundtrack for a while. really excellent bela tarr-esque 4k (would have been more BTesque if transiitions would have been smooth)
Fantastic sounds and looks.
really awesome, but halfway there was just a rerun of the same visuals so pacing was just boring there.. picked up with the great shadowy ending :)
Lovely in all aspects, the visual and audio direction is great for a 4k. Sounds is just fantastic.

OMFG! Piano in 4k. Thank you and good night! :D
AMAZING! I cannot believe where we are in terms of 4K.
2jammer: it is not piano
realistic piano in 4k is made by noby too with 4klang

This is really good. It could have been slightly better, yes, and people have pretty much mentioned the areas/things that could have been better already.
However this intro really shows how far you can get with quality, persistence and a truly awesome soundscape.
A pleasant surprise!

from all the things ive seen at deadline this is the one that i will remember for probably ever.
well done in all regards.

White screen - GeForce GT750M. :/
It gave me shivers. <3
@keen: it's also piano-like synthesis here - what else would be closer to that sound according to you? ;)
the visual experience is already mindblowing, especially for a 4k, but imho the most awesome achievement of this intro is the music wich is unbelievably good in term of composition and of course sound quality for the size, it gave me goosebump! :3
btw noby, "annoying how displaced the planet looks compared to the space around it", sounds familiar? :D

short movie :P
Music!
The cinematic noby is what the scene needs much more. This gave me Kubrick-like shivers.
yep, ace!
but what gargaj said.
and it bored me! :p
i guess i need my intros less realistic, i like abstrakt stuff! ;)
but i have to vote up of course, the tech and sound are just too good to not to!

I love it! Very powerful and immersive.
Outstanding quality, rendering as well as audio.
Amazing prod in so many respects. Best 4k of the party. Hands down.
Lovely music, doesn't sacrifice on the visuals <3
Beautiful.

sleeping hollow
OK, I'm officially a noby fan boy now.
I'll sort of agree with the "water looks weird" comments.. but then I found myself thinking "I wonder what forces make the liquid behave like that on this planet?" and then I was so hooked that I didn't notice the quality of the audio until it suddenly hit me like a brick. Stunning and mesmerising
I dug this! Good integration between a very impressive soundscape with good looking terrain. Some of the camera pans was just epic. <3
yeah, this is really good..
Stunning!
Quite nice, just the liquid didn't fit to me. Could have been replaced by some artefact or a real crash of the moons in the end, if there's enough space ;-)
I wonder what would happen if Noby teams up with IQ :)
omg. O_o
Amazing
unbalibabeul ! what just happened...
excellent.
you've been Wailleed
what sensenstahl said ..
Quite well done, though as said before toward the end it gets a little too obvious scenes-focuses are repeating and then attention starts to wane. However it is a 4K. :)
So that's it, 4k don't have to sound like 4k anymore?
that's what I call Kung Fu
Lools like a Limbo 3D Trailer :)
Awesome. Very atmospheric and polished.
wow
Well crafted, pretty snoozefest.
All of what Urs said.
But then.
First, let me state here that if we're really at a point where people complain they can see that 4k intros are done with math, we're doing pretty good I'd say. :D
But the biggest point is that again this intro is way more than the sum of its parts. It's one thing to hack up a few spheres and planes with noise on them and some water effect and then add some soundtrack, but Noby again shows that he knows perfectly what technique to use to what effect, and he cares about all the little details that make the difference between "yeah it's a shader alright" and awesomeness, as seen as in the direction and that positively breathtaking instrument design.
IMO the recent Prismbeing 4Ks really encompass what intro making is about. Don't listen to drunk ironic me at the party. Don't stop. :)

Noby: maybe you fixed them already, but in the party version there's a single "distance(x,l)" that probably a few bytes smaller as "length(x-l)" since you used length() before, and the "vec2(r.xy)" doesn't need the cast.
The intro style isn't quite my cup of tea, but the quality is undeniable.

Music matches perfectly. Dark, moody, I wonder if we will have only monochrom-demos next year at deadline. ;)
Really delicious.
Trury enjoyed this one! Thank you!
Decent. :)
Somewhat have the same "issue" as urs and evilpaul, it does not draw me in and I perceive it in "debug view" rather than getting drawn in as a good movie does. I believe it's due to the absence of color, b/w images are obviously fake. That works for abstract demos like Intrinsic Gravity by Still, but not for cinematic immersion. The forced cropping does not help it.
But that's complaining at a high level, the composition and sequence of the scenes, instruments and music are great work!
Do you craft these instruments by hand or did you write a tool that accepts a target waveform as input and approximates it by brute forcing parameters to the synth and comparing results? Just wondering, because you have so many quality instruments in your prods :) (mad skills if you tune them by hand/ear!)

Organic. Flawless.
nice ending tie
fantastic!
Except for the liquid which badly broke immersion for me, this is awesome, especially direction and sound.
the f*ck.... just how?
Impressive!
Impressive stuff
spectacular!
This is truly in a league of its own!
The landscape looks absolutely fabulous. I really like that some parts are eroded while others are sharp. Not sure how it is done.. something like smooth stuff which got a certain normal?
I think the liquid looks great aswell. As Evilpaul mentioned, liquid might flow in an exotic way depending on its composition and gravity. For example Titan has got liquid methane lakes.
Now only way to top this is to make an evil version of elevated with drum and bass and volcanoes exploding in suppressed teenage anger! Throw in a few hiphop overlays and make the windows speech synth say the N word.

thumbs up rulez nothing more to say
streng!
sure
wonderful production.
Sooo beautiful and athmospheric. Superb direction! And all that in unbelievable 4k - would have been a winner demo as well. totally love it! <3
Masterpiece of cinematic direction! O_O
And there´s nothing wrong with the "liquid": I like that it convincingly looks rather alien and superficial rather than trying to be realistic (and in the end failing to do that, like basically everyone who tried)

excellent atmosphere and overall design
nice visuals and stunning soundscape!
Lovely composition.
What you all said
I'm thinking since premiering how nicely endorse this prod. A hard task and most of it was already said. :-)
So I'll just say I'm excited to see Prismbeings working with compact minimalism, bringing every time unique environment/mood. Another shift towards movies narrative is excellent news for demos. We need more coherent(/minimal)/cinematic demos!

Beautiful minimalism with great execution. I'm a sucker for space demos :)
Rulez !

Like this one better then von trier.
Beautiful. Loved it on all levels. Design is great, technically it’s great, and the music is stunning!
I love the fluid too. It’s fitting. Clearly alien... not water, but some liquid that exists at the cold, cold temperatures in this place, being driven by unknown winds in an atmosphere where air would be a solid. It’s also the land in motion, which makes it belong there.
One thing though: it’s so very cold. A cold, dead, alien world. Maybe bring some warmth into your next one :)

Watching this on the bigscreen @Deadline was a fantastic experience. As a huge fan of Godfrey Reggio's trilogy I was delighted.
Nicely executed!
Though the fluid is "interesting" (which is not necessarily a problem, but it's not realistic), and it could be somewhat more eventful.

No mola
Definitely thumb.
no bs
Has atmosphere.
At first I thought it would be a minimalist dark ambient demo in the spirit of the earlier Eraserhead, and was fully prepared to upboat it for that alone, but then the soundtrack entered full swing and my lower jaw fell so far away it managed to roll all the way to Finland to fangirl over you.
(lol @ "Finnish Elevated")
(lol @ "Finnish Elevated")
amazing 4k.
The visual style stands any trial,... sure, direction's a lil'bit slow paced,... but it's in 4k!!.!.. and did i mention, that the visual style stands any trial!?! :D
It's fantastic that you are able to do make whole prod (code, music and design) on THAT level in 4-fuckin-kilos!
Watched it again today and it tastes even better after talking to you man @Demobit and heard where the idea come from. My fav 4k. Outstanding.

Another wonderful minimalist demo from Noby :) . The timing, the music, the graphics, everything fall perfectly into places.
holy shit
Great atmosphere and camera. I think that color could kill the impact here.
And the liquid that does not fit here well, but later when it looks like a linen canvas - suddenly fits.
