Regards, the NYC WTC video everyone screams that it was a TV ad but where is the hard proof?
Anybody have links?

what else have i got... ok, rather than going away my wife Barbara's ufo tv spot that was done for SCI-FI TV here is still pulling in comment and e-mails... the main reason being that the thing was shot using the world trade center in new york as a location... now we've gotten to a place in the culture wherein my denial of the 'reality' of the thing will undoubtedly convince various people of its viability but even though i personally wish that indeed it had been evil aliens who destroyed the trade center, the blame is unfortunately a lot closer to home and the now famous tv spot is just that: a tv spot with a fake photoshop (or whatever) ufo etc etc etc

Can anyone post any CGI video of whatever, doesn't have to be a UFO, that looks as real as this one? Just has to be a a moving CG created object that moves around in real looking terrain...
I looked at the vue 6 site and watched the commercial and couldn't see anything as impressing as this vid.
I thought this video was quite impressive, and funny too!

OK, For me the tree thing has become "the glass is half-empty vs. the glass is half-full". We all seem to be split on this. So lets move on. I have a couple of observations I wish to share.
First, if they are hoaxed. Why should we believe the locations anyway? People are comparing the trees and saying they are hundreds of miles apart. One in the D.R. and the other Haiti. How can we even believe the poster? Could be throwing us off.
Second, as JR Ritzman had suggested. It would be helpful to find the location from where the videos were shot if in fact they are real. I have spent hours searching the web for visuals from both D.R. and Haiti. Like a dog chasing my tail.
The SpeedTreeMAX plug-in can also create additional trees or forests with the help of a randomly generated seed, permitting the quick creation of new trees that are similar but not identical to those already in the scene. The software also allows the user to create an infinite variety of trees, and have them blow in the wind, at any wind speed from gentle breeze to hurricane.
Verdant plants and trees are different from typical 3D models in that they the can be “Variated” -- randomized. Users can choose the age, density of branches, leaves, and more by making simple selections. Branch and leaf placement and all other characteristics vary, much like plants and trees vary in nature. Users can have just one model and not worry about “billboarding” the same tree over and over.

Regarding the "cut and paste" tree crowd, I have searched many 3D modeling plug-in sites. Most all of the software allows a function called "seeding" whereby you can create similar trees. It is literally a "button push". So why would the "hoaxer" get lazy on cloning trees when most of the software affords this simple option.

Ok, that's one.. Not as good as the haiti video though, not even close....
Anyway, I guess there's a reason this vid get this enormous attention both here on this site and on youtube where it is the most watched video today...! That's sort of huge, and if it's a hoax I guess the creator has to be happy with all the attention.
My point is that it's something extraordinary,
Why would this video get so much attention if it was not very unusual?? If an average guy could make a movie like that it would not receivec close to a million views in a day on youtube and get youtube awards...

and, the fact that the video has been doctored badly is a red flag. we don't have to stitch together videos for a promo - we can make them flawless and whole
not to say this isn't a fake
because i don't know

Reality should be obvious, but to some its not I guess.

Yeah - I've seen this one before too - only in much higher res, and it's even nicer But it's still pretty obviously CGI - nice, but CGI.
Cheers,
