Here is a frame from our last 8 second scene. As we had a three PC farm (2 DELL 620s and 1 8250), we went all the way with ray tracing -- still took 5hr40min to render the scene with field interlacing (for TV viewing). My students were into modeling detail so the ramp grid is individual cylinders - notice the shadows on the floor. Stadium light bar is made from Inventor imports of the kit's light sensors linked to 3DSMAX lights which are in turn linked to moving objects in the rest of the frame.

It's been a long 6 weeks, but we had a lot of fun.

Good luck to all!
