QUIXEL’s Beautiful Real Time CG Short Film “Rebirth”

Director and Quixel CEO Teddy Bergsman Lind: “Rebirth is a real-time cinematic produced by harnessing the power of Unreal Engine 4, real-world scans from the Megascans Icelandic collection, and Houdini with photorealistic results rivaling traditional offline renderers.

“Set in the beautiful landscapes of another Icelandic world, Rebirth brought together a team from VFX, games, and archviz to produce a film exploring existential questions about machine and human hybrids.
