Concept work · built from scratch in Blender

Take it apart.
Then show how it works.

A turbocharger modeled part by part, exploded, cut in half and run on film. A hair salon you can walk through on your phone before you drive there. Every machine and room on this page was made here. None of it is a client project.

Turbocharger, taken apart

A generic turbo, built from 43 modeled parts. It spins up, comes apart along its shaft, goes back together, then gets cut in half so you can watch exhaust drive the turbine, the compressor pack air, oil feed the bearings and the wastegate open.

43parts, each modeled in code
1,440frames at 1080p
4.3 saverage render per frame, one RTX 4060

The narration is a computer voice (open-source Kokoro), labeled on the end card. The score and sound effects are synthesized in code. No AI video or images.

ConceptWalk-through

Walk in before you drive

An upscale salon, built from nothing: herringbone oak, six stations with arched mirrors, a shampoo room, a color bar and a product wall. One continuous move from the door to the back, with two held moments.

Concept salon, not a real business. The paintings are public-domain works from The Met Open Access. The product labels are an invented brand.
