softimage slideshow
the three pictures will open a pop up and show you an slideshow. the cocktail party on the bottom left was killer! on top of the standard hotel. this place is the place! it is really happening. pool. water bed pod/chairs. regular cushioned chairs. regular chairs and tables. a small dance floor. open bar. and a projector that puts video up on the building across the street.
everyone was there. softimage users. developers. staff. non softimage users. potential softimage users. people from many countries. and all over the united states. i met soo many people and got a great feel for the industry. things are looking good.
did i mention this was a paid three days off?! uhh yeah! i got so much schwag i dont know what to do with. shirts. hardware. software. trinkets. posters (signed). dvds.
ok thats enough.
pictures to come!
It seemed like you were having a ball Steve, Congrats on your great Demo. Hey you even made the slideshow at the Softimage user group meeting. I can't wait for the new release of XSI I am going to preorder a copy.I am so glad I was exposed to such a wonderful app with even more wonderful users. I can see that in the near future that many more studios will include or even replace their workflow to include XSI!
Steve your hotel seemed to have almost everything but did it have homeless people standing in fornt of cars doing business so noone could pass. or as you wait for your taxi to compe, have luxoris views of expensive drug deals occur. Our hotel was so cool that we even had to pay $10 extra because we had tvs; and on top of that we even had windows in our room! ANd they Opened!!. Our luxorious 6'x4' bathroom was great it is the onlybathroom where you could take a shower and wash your hands in the sink at the same time!!! And on those warm nights we even had a fan to chase away a few degrees. Oh man I am reliving the wonderful time I spent at the hotel. By the way I beg everyone to stay away from Hotel Cecil Please!
I was excited to see the work on Barnyard and can't wait for the release, I am sure it has been a fun and challenging adventure. Steve I remember during one of the prensentation that included Barnyard that they discussed the cloth sim that they did during the boy tiping scene, is it possible to get that paraphrased anywhere when I herd it I had an apehony and everything seemed to be all better but I had so much information to obsorb I lost it :( I learned to take a note pad next time. I hope you are enjoying your weekend and thanks for the shwag!
great seeing you ray..
yeah for the boy tipping they did a buncha cloth sims on a 1 sided grid. then ran a buncha sims baked them down and mixed between the sims they needed to get the effects they needed. enveloped that back onto a 2 sided mesh. worked out well.. he had some seriously extreme movement.
ny new productions on the horizon? HOW WAS THE VIP PARTY??!!?
Take care man
