If you were as bowled over as I was by Alexey Zakharov's gorgeous 3D-animated Futurama introduction we spotlighted last month, you'll be equally impressed by the artist's new video, which shows how he created the sequence using 3ds Max, Nuke, Photoshop and After Effects.

Particularly fun, as you can see in part in the image above, is how Zakharov combined in image of Futurama's Mom and a photo of Meryl Streep to create the holographic ad for Mom’s Old-Fashioned Robot Oil. I guess she is the most versatile actress of her generation!

Watch the original sequence, and the making-of video, below.
