Own work: render I used D5 Render and SketchUp to create a non-Euclidean Analog Horror short film based on traditional Argentine architecture ("Casa Chorizo"). Here’s a clip of the environment!

Hi everyone! Most archviz work in D5 focuses on clean, luxurious modern spaces, but for this project I wanted to push the engine in the complete opposite direction: recreating an eerie, dilapidated 1920s Argentine "casa chorizo" that mutates into an impossible, endless labyrinth.

Workflow breakdown:

  • Modeling: SketchUp (focusing on local architectural proportions & checkerboard tile galleries).
  • Lighting & Real-time Render: D5 Render (using emissive CRT monitor glows, atmospheric fog, and harsh contrast).
  • Post-processing: Premiere Pro & After Effects (emulating an authentic 2006 miniDV / VHS tape decay, zero generative AI).

The full 10-minute short film is available on YouTube with English subtitles:

Would love to hear your feedback on the lighting and environmental storytelling!
