Digital Reality Indistinguishable from Reality?

The two videos below were created ENTIRELY with a computer - neither video below used a single camera shot... nothing here is real. 

Now we have all seen amazing special effects and CGI content in films, but what is even more stunning about these two videos is they are made almost entirely by one guy. 

What does this say about the future of filmmaking? 

Once the technology and knowledge-base for this stuff is democratized, aspiring filmmakers everywhere will have a new question: Should I buy a camera or buy software? 

It won't be long and we will consciously incarnate into those digital worlds and witness digital life and "real" life begin to merge into one experience.
