Pixomondo uses Thinkbox Frost for "dancing metal" in a Grammy awards ad

As reported by 3D World Magazine, the international visual effects company Pixomondo recently collaborated on a TV spot featuring liquid metal pulsating to the music of Best New Artist Grammy-award Nominee Skrillex. It was produced as part of the "We Are Music" campaign.

The video used a large palette of software applications, including the Thinkbox FROST particle mesher in conjunction with Autodesk 3ds Max.

According to Creative director Simon Mowbray, 

"3ds Max with Thinkbox Frost was invaluable – it generated beautiful meshes from Particle Flow efficiently and with lots of control."
