Re: Post your animation piece that got you hired.
I applied to every studio in AU/NZ with this reel and didn't get a single reply! https://vimeo.com/142832793 I decided to focus on what I enjoyed most (creature anim) for about 4 months and started to reapply with a fresh reel. Managed to score a junior animator position at the first place I sent it to! (luma pictures)… -
Re: W.I.P - Semi Broken down city
Hello all, First I would like to appologise to craig. I did send him a few pms on cgtalk when I first saw his work but he never msged me back so I figured it wouldn't be too bad to gain inspiration from his work. I'm striving to be an environment artist and from his renders it gave me a new zeal to strive even harder to… -
Re: Development Cycle Watermark
As an artist, I obviously feel most content when I'm plugging away at creating content, which, as you stated, is usually right in the middle of production, although I tend to get more artistic satisfaction from my personal projects. I still take pride and put a lot of care into in what I do at my paying job, but that… -
Re: Do U Think Concept Art is Becoming More Advanced?
kill: feeling your fine artist oats these days? i wouldn't disagree with your observations, but all that really doesn't change the basic nature of concept art and design. design is still about communication, not making pretty pictures in and of themselves, however much more some concept artists seem to be getting into the… -
Re: PS3 To Make PCs Obsolete

Re: "I wanted the gun to tell a story."
One thing that is very important with UVs, is to keep them straight. If your uvs are randomly rotate 7 degrees, you're going to need more resolution to represent straight-line type detail, which you have a lot of(a very good example of this is on the magazine). Think of it this way: you can represent a straight line in 2d… -
Re: Why Make Games?
I was originally wanting to do film/television stuff, because of watching Reboot and Beast Wars. However when I entered college, it quickly became apparent I didn't like animation (which was my current major) It was Christmas break and I was kind of confused as to what I was going to pursue, when Hawkprey posted his… -
Re: Your warm-up exercises for rigging and 3D modeling
Wake up. Try to beat my girlfriend to the kitchen so I can selfishly make myself a cup of coffee first. Boop the pets on their cold wet little pet noses. Collapse into my office chair where I know I will be spending the next 12-14 hours of my life. Sigh loudly and over-dramatically. Spend about 10 minutes contemplating the… -
