A warm welcome

I would just like to take this opportunity to officially list and welcome some key contributors to the project: I feel really blessed and fortunate to have these people, who are willing to bring their skills to this short for peanuts. It means a lot.

Etienne Olivier - Best friend, dreamer and Music composer/co-composer.
Mikkel Nielsen - A very talented, hard working sound designer from Denmark.
Stephan Calitz - Animator, wants fame and fortune.
Christopher Pinto - Animator, fussy deconstructionist.

Production is going a lot faster now thanks to these great people!

Some eye-sweeties

Ughh. Here's a render of the space station that will be part of the intro, as well as some test renders of my Maya Mental Ray shaders to help me get my mind off of the annoying issues that go along with cross-platforming your work. The upside to that stuff is that you start feeling all smart by engineering cool workarounds to get things working perfect again. And I just love being able to work in Maya again.
