Tranzit is a short, fast-paced CGI film about the delivery of a mysterious case — and the clock counting down to get it there. Every frame is fully computer-generated: the vehicle, the forest road, the environment fog and the light cutting through it, modelled and rendered to hold up at cinema scale.
These stills come from a single scene — the forest-road sequence — caught across eight angles: a drone line directly overhead, the drift on a rear fisheye and a road-side rail, CCTV surveillance of the route, and the briefcase timer counting down inside the car. Two more scenes are still in post and stay under wraps for now.
Tranzit wasn't a commission. The question going in was: how far can the pipeline actually go right now?
The forest-road sequence was built to hold up as a still frame, not just in motion. Proper lighting, atmosphere, real weight on the vehicle. Getting there meant reaching for tools outside the standard Blender setup. EmberGen handled the drift smoke, which would have taken days through Blender's fluid system. The forest came from Botaniq, a Blender plugin for vegetation. The car came from Traffiq, a vehicle asset library, then was refined for the production. Road detail came from Rolls Must Roll, a Blender addon for road surfaces. Knowing when to build from scratch and when to reach for the right plugin is part of the job.
Part one is out. Part two is fully animated and in post.
