VFX Soldier posted a shredding reply to an article created by Steve Wright
where do you stand? Union a good idea or a bad one? what about the "point in time"?
Steve’s reply is in the comments or here
Currently working on the animated mythology/horror film Kaptara, and I wanted to share some of what we’ve got so far and get some feedback both on the work and on whether or not this is something anyone would want to see.
We’ve used Maya for initial modeling, ZBrush for refinement, Mari for texturing, and then we move back into Maya for rigging.
Kaptara is a retelling of the Greek myth of Theseus and the minotaur, and will have elements of both fantasy and horror.
If you’d like to see more images, or are interested in the film’s story, you can see more on our facebook page (please “LIKE” us, it really helps): Facebook/Kaptara
Thoughts? Advice? Is this something you’d like to see?

Please let us know what you think!
For example: Always keep #1 on my original plate and always keep #10 on my write node?
I find myself working in my node tree and I’ll have a certain node selected that I may be working on, then I’ll hit 1 to look at my original plate and it’ll switch #1 to view the node I’m working on. Not a big deal, but kind of annoying when I’m trying to work and I have to pan around to hook up a viewer to the proper node again.

Thanks

Congratulations to Bébète LANUITE for the exceptional piece that really demonstrated a creative approach to mocha and just how efficiently one can come up with a very professional product in a very short period of time!
We plan on doing more of these contests in the future so get your best ideas ready and you could win some great prizes!
But there is a reason why we uploaded this particular clip.
It was shot on a Panasonic NV-GS75. I got this camera many year ago, and it sure does not look like a proper film camera. It is just an example to show you people that it really does not depend on the camera you shoot with.
You can make everything look cool, as long as you have the right components…and the camera is just one of many components you need. Even for a silly clip like this one.
I hope my message comes across here.. Just go out there and Film! Guys there are way to many people who don´t even dare to film a movie because they think, they do not have the right equipment… I can only tell you one thing.
I bet your film is better than my first movies!
