Well I reached a point with this guy that I feel it's finished for the most part. As far as a first model there's a ton of stuff I like to work on further, tweak and change but due to my inexperience I think I hit the rook on the polygon count, and my computer sends me hate mail every time I load it up. Which brings me to…
How about force collaboration (if its going to be big) for everyone? You just have to create the list of people and make them do the set or something. There are actually many ways this can go. Either people are assigned semi-random* to a team and roles are then chosen by the team as a whole, or you can have a person have a…
Hmm, the first thing I see is a blogspot website that asks me to enable cookies. Not the best thing to start off. Also im not sure how blogspot websites can look, but the template dosnt look particulary great. Maybe look around for some others. Try getting alteast your headliner with your name etc in a nice font and such,…
so are you screening for this sort of thing when you do interviews? For art test are you asking for project files, and instructing the candidate to present there work as they would to a team? Or even given some specific instructions on how to organize and deliver? And for the other side -- the job candidate -- what kind…
S_ource - It's funny when you think something looks good and than come to find out you are WAY off! Thanks for the tip on the gold.. hopefully this is better. Add3r - thanks for the encouragement. I definitely appreciated your input and made the appropriate changes. I took the scene from the Shining 'here's Johnny!' as…
The Director of Chicken Little is a good, funny Director, when given his head, but how much control he actually has is up inthe air. Mark Dindall was the director for "The Emperor's New Groove" which was Disney's last "funny" film, and also "Cats Don't Dance" for the late lamented Turner Feature Animation. All the talk on…
I played the first few levels. Got a gun and got borred with the repetition. It still doesn't change much of what I compaired. Bungie updated the marathon universe for halo (more like continued it) and changed (insert long ass anime name here) to be Master Chief. Have you looked at the two side by side? Checked out their…
follow up via e-mail, but don't follow up often, follow up every 2 weeks. There's usually only 3 reasons they haven't gotten back to you: 1) They're insanely busy 2) They're not interested and have been so inundated with applicants they haven't been able to personally respond to every one 3) You're on a short (but actually…
This crit comes in kind of late in the game, but it's something you can chew on in future projects. Right now, the arms don't feel like they are incorperated into the body correctly. It looks like there are four arms where there should be two. Like he's trying to be human, but just misses the mark (deformities come to…
scrolling texture on normal fixed polys and fresnel opacity falloff, quite cheap to draw. pretty much (actually all) all my effects are done with scrolling uvs, layered shaders and some funky alpha settins danr- yep your right, although i have seen big candles smoke quite a bit in damp surroundings, but yeah maybe a slight…
