  • The web master at 3D ARK.com has updated information regarding his 3D competition he's holding. Judges on this will include representatives from Pixar, Industrial Light & Magic, Digital Domain and Tippett Studios!

    The potential recognition you would get from winning is tremendous; I cannot stress how wonderful this opportunity is for struggling artists trying to get into the game.

  • FROM AUTODESK MAILING LIST:
    Just got back from the first showing of "The Fifth Element", a non-stop (really) action movie that has a shi_load of FX in it. Digital Domain did some awesome stuff, even though they are a little bit cocky down there in Venice Beach (and at last year's SIGGRAPH - some of their artists were plastering Digital Domain stickers all over New Orleans). While we were there, we met and rapped with the Chief Engineer of VIFX, a big visual FX company in LA (that's Los Angeles, not Louisiana!) - they did most of the FX in Volcano, the Relic and they are also working on TITANIC. He said they are looking for digital artists and animators and are really trying to recruit new talent right now. Just thought I would spread some word about job opportunities. Quoted, Bryan Ierardi of Engram Digital Productions

  • Rumours of 3D Studio Max 2 are still rampant in the newsgroups, but no news from Kinetix or beta testers (if they exist).
  • Universal Chat will be having live chats with the stars of Steven Spielberg's The Lost World: Jurrasic Park.
    Jeff Goldblum and Julianne Moore will be chatting live on Thursday May 22 at 4 and 6 pm PDT respectively.

  • Rumours of a third Terminator film by James Cameron are increasing. He has, apparently, been spotted having talks with Arnold S. As for the proposed Spiderman movie, all the legal crap has been dealt with. It's just a case of producing and making the damn thing!
