Digital Tutors

I highly recommend anyone who wants to learn software to sign up for Digital Tutors. The tutorials are very well done and organized nicely. I am getting back up to speed on XSI and learning Nuke from scratch. In only a few short days I almost know enough of the apps to do what we're going to need on Resident Evil 4: Afterlife (3D).

MONTREAL

I am going to be working in Montreal for 6 months as a CG Supervisor at Rodeo FX on a live action 3d stereo film. The city is incredible. The French influence is lovely. I am staying in the Old Montreal. It's a wonderful district to walk around. I need to lose those DreamWorks 15 pounds...

"Director Adam Berg responded with an idea for an epic ‘frozen moment’ cops and robbers shootout sequence that included clowns, explosions, a decimated hospital, and plenty of broken glass and bullet casings."
