New Yorkers?
A few of us are popping over to New York for a few days, and want to check out some gigs if possible. Can anyone recommend some good venues, or any gigs mid April (18-26th)? Or a website with gig listings for New York that aren't just local bands. Google so far seems to be turning up only local bands or gigs for the… -
Re: [Maya] Translate/Snap objects with different pivots without grouping?
I got you :) This is a bit of a hack, but it does work. Here's the quick breakdown: I'm creating a dummy locator, and then connecting my objects to that locator via a parentConstraint. You can then move the locator and the objects follow. I've written you code for the connecting process and the removal of the constraints.… -
Re: Maxscript gizmo access
You can query the current state of the action item: ( local maiUITable = for i = 1 to actionMan.numActionTables where (actionMan.getActionTable i).name == "Main UI" do exit with actionMan.getActionTable i local axisShowItem = for i = 1 to maiUITable.numActionItems where (item = maiUITable.getActionItem i; item.getMenuText… -
Re: Canada - the promised land!
I know that Montreal is strange in regards to relocation. At the moment, only Ubisoft and Gameloft seem to be hiring non-local cantidates, the rest seem to be poaching incestuously from other studios, or applicants offering to relocate themselves. I think a few Senior positions they might consider relocating someone from… -
Re: Studios' mindset when hiring overseas: Portfolio or Network?
Yes that sort of makes sense. However, I hear and read so many stories of international students attending schools and later landing a job in the same city/country. So I think there's probably a difference between actually hiring a random graduate living overseas than a local graduate, that's already living in the area,… -
Re: maxscript and how to call a function
Ok, now i have another question, i want define a local variable in the master.ms, include the slave.ms which just prints out the local variable. This works fine already. BUT i want overhand "include" a variable as filename which isn't possible when i believe the manual. And if i use filein, i'm not able to use the… -
Re: Is it really worth persuing a career in Art/CG?
Please no outsourcer angst again. There will always be local game studios, just as outsourcing to India didn't wipe out all local IT companies. Just replace the word outsourcer with freelancer and you'll see how ridiculous this is. I'm sure there's more 3D freelancers in the world than artists working in outsourcing… -

Re: VFX in Los Angeles 100 hour weeks & homeless
Where do you get that from? It's the 21st century version of the nieve young hopefull moving to Hollywood hoping to become a star only to fall into ruin. I don't personally know anyone that pulled off the move first and find success route. If you honestly think being local is such a huge advantage, just pretend you're… -
Re: Going Indie
A lot of the major networking is done face-to-face. You can find out a lot about local group meet-ups on the TigSource forums. One of the UKs major events just happened ealier this month -- TigJam UK 5, but I think that group does meet-ups regularly? If nothing is happening in your area, you can always try to start…
