Rendered animation of my rural highway environment. Based on the real location in Indiana. The Mountainview Diner, Union 76 gas station, and Lincoln Lodge were all built around 1953 and represent to me a tyupical rural highway crossroads of the era and the developing road culture. This is the second render; it is still too fast so I'll redo it and make the distance travelled a bit shorter, maybe spending more time at the three main intersections and less racing down the road.

I saw a zoetrope at the Franklin Institute a long time ago and was recently reminded of it and inspired to make one of my own.
