John Carter

My lack of contribution to this blog has been due to this man, John Carter. For the past 6 months I have been working at Double Negative to complete the VFX for this adaptation of the Edgar Rice Burroughs classic, 'The Princess of Mars'.

Monsters

Redefining low budget film making. Beautiful work from vfx artist turned director Gareth Edwards.

Michael Kutsche

Bad-ass concept art from Michael Kutsche.

Video pixels

Got shown this today - lovely idea and nice little story.

Dubrovnik in 3D

The old city of Dubrovnik created in 3D using nearly half a million images from flickr. This amazing model was lovingly pieced together by the very clever boys and girls at University of Washingtons Graphics and Imaging lab.

Kazuki Takamatsu

Kazuki Takamatsu utilises 3D depth information to create unique pieces of art. We like!

Mehmet Akten

Very clever work from interaction designer Mehmet Akten. View more on his vimeo page.

Avatar

Finally the teaser trailer for James Cameron's Avatar has been released. We have to admit we were a little underwhelmed at first. However after a few more views we are starting to get a little excited. The CGI is not as groundbreaking as we were lead to believe but it is still quite impressive. Judge for yourself at www.avatarmovie.com

A bit like Blankety Blank really

Saw this, liked it, blogged it.

Visual Madness

We've all seen clever projections before but this work by Apparati Effimeri really raises the bar. It's a long video but the build up of visual trickery is worth the wait.

Brandon Riza - VFX Master Chief

Brandon's work for Blur Studio's is breathtaking. In particular his vfx builds for the Halo Wars cinematic. He's also a pretty good photographer. People like him make me sick.
