I'm very impressed with the video.

CGI moves so fast it's difficult to keep up to date.
Guess I'm stuck in the past 2012 ya know ;)

---

maybe back around 1998 there where some meshes modeled with tri's.
but I would think most box modeled with loops then tried the mesh.

I can't say for everyone
but I think the best looking meshes are made in zBrush/MudBox
 ,then retopology.

So I guess that would make box modeling in quads or tri's old school.
