Stan Winston

Thanks Stan, for being one of the top inspirations for getting me into this industry.  To me, it was Jurassic Park that really made the push for me to get into this biz in the first place.  Who knew that being a ‘creature creator’ was a real job?  Well, we will miss you Stan.

Quickie update

Wow, its been too long… again.  A major update needs to happen soon, but for now just a quick one will have to do –

 

-OS2 is almost wrapped up, animation should be finishing up over the next week or so, and then we’ll have about 2 months left for lighting/fx

-KFP commercials are wrapped up, and now we’re doing some DVD stuff.  I can’t wait to see this flick btw, it’s looking awesome!

-a new, and very large, project fell on my lap recently… more news on that later this year. 

-I’ve been meaning to do a big script dump to highend for some things I’ve had, but it’s a bit low on the priority list

-I might be switching servers/hosts soon, but ideally that will happen seamlessly if/when it does

-stay tuned for some new rigging tutorials coming in the future :)

-speaking of rigging tutorials – have questions or would like to see some specific how-to’s answered?  Shoot your suggestions this way..

 

Oh, and don’t forget to get your siggraph tickets!!  It’s approaching rapidly…
