Originally created for the Darklight Festival's '4 Day Movie' project, Avatar Days is a portrait of four online gamers in Dublin whose daily lives contrast with their virtual identities. Advanced 3D technologies and Motion Capture animation were used to insert the players' in-game characters in place of their real selves against the backdrop of the banal urban landscape which they inhabit.

    great compositing. In the first few shot's I expected some costumes. I really like that you don't smooth or subsurf the models.
