The 2026 V-Ray VFX & Animation Showreel is here

We’ve just premiered the 2026 VFX & Animation Showreel at the Chaos Sessions @ SIGGRAPH yesterday, and we couldn't wait to share it with you! This year’s reel is once again a celebration of the boundless creativity and the incredible worlds built by the artists, studios, and bright creative minds in our community.

 

Inspiration for every kind of artist

Whether you’re working on the next big blockbuster, game cinematic, or feature animation, or you’re an ArchViz artist seeking a big dose of cinematic inspiration to inject into your renders, join us in celebrating the extraordinary work of the V-Ray community.

We’ve brought together a diverse collection of projects spanning film, feature animation, advertising, game cinematics, and music videos. You’ll experience everything from the classic humor of The Naked Gun and the vibrant charm of Asterix & Obelix: The Big Fight to the searing dragon fire of Game of Thrones: War for Westeros.

The reel also features the mysterious cosmic depths of World of Warcraft: Midnight Expansion, the dark, intense world of Diablo Immortal, and the whimsical journey of Pets on a Train (Falcon Express). We’ve even captured the warm scent of freshly baked bread in the Warburtons’ 150th anniversary video, alongside the raw energy of Emicida’s music video and much more.

To every artist and studio featured: thank you for pushing V-Ray to its limits and rendering nothing short of pure awesomeness. Credit goes to the studios and every stellar artist behind the pixels:
