Missing Pixels

I spoke today at THE ACADEMY of ART UNIVERSITY in San Francisco to the Missing Pixels club. As far as I understand it's a club that discusses the animation and visual effects industry. One goal of the club is to find projects for students to work on, hence the name.

I talked about my career, the industry, and showed various DVDs:
* Louis Katz 2005 reel.
* Design Reactor's latest virual marketing film, The One.
* Vladimir Leschinski's Visual Effects Supervisor reel for Dr.PICTURE in Russia including Night Watch, Day Watch and Wolfhound (HD series) visual effects work.
* Scott Leberecht's Natural Selection.

I asked the students to introduce themselves and what their major is emphasizing.

I spoke about the visual effects work we need for the film Origin. I have a feeling a few or more of the students present will volunteer to help out.

The President of the club, Patrick Johnson was an extremely nice guy. I believe he wants to become a Visual Effects Producer.
