Beyond the Aquila Rift  The animations in this short film reminded me of the movie The Polar Express . The production team of The Polar Express used motion capture technology to animate realistic-looking human characters.

Similarly, the producers of Beyond the Aquila Rift  used rendered 3D modeling mapped over motion capture. Beyond the Aquila Rift  definitely used more cutting-edge animation, especially because The Polar Express  was created back in 2004. I simply found it interesting how similar they appeared especially with the difference in time in which they were created.
