Starting Monday I start work on a Spielberg project. Nothing more I can say I think.

Please check out Warren Fu's latest music video for Mark Ronson, Bang Bang Bang. I pitched in and did a few shots in After Effects.

John Hurt

I ran into John Hurt at my favorite local restaurant / bar L'ASSOMOIR in the Old Port of Montreal. Got him a shot of Jamison, we talked, and I gave him my card. Then 3 chicks and the owner joined us... He's filming Immortals (aka Dawn of War and Gods of War).

Jake Gyllenhaal in local Montreal Coffee Shop

$6 Canadian Dollars for a latte and chocolatine, and I saw this guy:

He's done a few movies I like, and one I worked on...

Guess which ones?

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...
