heheh!!

my first pc was an xt and my first software was - "Sequencer Plus Gold" Voyetra's flagship Sequencer for DOS. An all time favorite for quick and easy MIDI editing." -

it was state of the art, cutting edge to have a computer in a recording studio at all, and we were the big dogs with 256k ram!! -puffs chest- lolol! - they did have the atari's before that but when i went pro - the pc's were the latest trend.

My firsrt HD was 20 meg and I thought I would never fill it :D

The first ever piece of software I bought was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_Construction_Kit

THANK GOD FOR ICLONE !!!!:P Though with a contents folder over 40gig that 20 meg HD wouldnt go far ...

HAHA looking through the links from the Wikipedia I fell across the old fanzines http://www.3dconstructionkit.co.uk/fanzines.html if you go to issue 14 page 19 (page 9 of the pdf) you will find a high score table that I coded for 3D construction kit 20 years ago :w00t:

Aint the internet great !!

@Blue, thank you! I'll check those out - so happy I can go there now with 5.4 - I'm finding now I have to learn anatomy too, to get better at modeling!

@Biz - Thank you! glad you enjoyed , I have another track I made with the vocaloid that I want to make a vid for - I did a cover for mr sandman that came out pretty cool, I want to write some original songs for it for my label - but have to write the correct style to pull it off like real person!! and now with the Daz and Iclone morphing - Im going to get people to want to marry my computer!! lol! :w00t:

There is a book on Amazon ( I got mine second hand for 87p) Called Facial Expressions a visual reference for artists by Mark Simon .. You will love it :)

While on about second hand books peeps may want to get hold of Digital character animation set of books by George Maestri, they cover all the basics and all but the latest version are very VERY cheap on amazon, Think I paid around £7 for the first 3 volumes :)

This one was a real eye opener omg!! - try this experiment, load up this pic in your photo program, cut the smile - then mix and match it with the negative expressions - the results are creepy yet familiar! :blink:

heheh, thank you, I met him on craigslist, the girls go crazy over him!! :w00t: I'm happy you found the tool useful, I thought it was a helpful thing after the recent tts discussions on the forum :)

another one to check out, which is more technical - is the vocaloids - they sound very good and they are working on a new version that does speech, technically you can do speech now with their singing version - but it may be a little technical to make the character sound like they are speaking being that the nature of this software is to make your computer sing.

I just tried it out and indeed the Scottish voice is not bad at all, yet another resource to add to the toolbox :w00t:
Thank you

here is a good article on film distribution - I have an idea to make animated musicals, so I've been doing research on it.

[url]http://www.lightsfilmschool.com/blog/how-to-get-your-indie-film-onto-itunes-netflix/1817/[/url]

I sent an email to my distributor to see if they can include film distribution in their services!
They are distributing ebooks now as well as audio books - if anyone needs help creating and distributing an ebook or audiobook - message me - I can help with audio mastering and distribution. :)

@colour #nowyouknow ;)

@peter - ya, I was just doing a little research on it, seems they use teamfortress 2 assets and you can import assets for teamfortress through 3D coat , ...another awesome potential pipeline for iclone!! :w00t:

steam looks like it has a lot of great potential for pipelines with iclone - they have many games that have level designs and can import assets, especially since they have a steam version of 3D coat. Almost makes me wonder what a steam version of iclone would be like. since steam is like the itunes for pc games! :blink:

peterblood — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 17:18:40 GMT

planet: :)

That was a sweetly made little vid. I'll check out that site tonight. I've been on steam for almost 3 years and they've never said anything about it in the updates they send me. :doze: Them little buggers. Anyway thanks for both.

:cool: pete

a video I just found made with the steam / source film maker software - pretty nice work - I really like the character designs and want to create stylized characters like those for Iclone :)

RE: The Dragons Den

planetstardragon — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 14:05:30 GMT

I've started stocking up on the store again, I've been working mainly on creating interesting sets that I'd like to make future films with and making them available in my shop, I hope you enjoy the new work and I sincerely appreciate all the support I've gotten immensely!

I'll be working on new characters and motions also, but I won't be making packs yet because doing big themed motion packs can be distracting and for now it would be easier to just to upload single motions as i finish them. It's less constricting than trying to organize 20 motions for say a "horror" pack. I'm also open to requests, message me in the forum though, I don't often see my store messages till late.

This is my latest model I created with sketchup! I put the models in a project file so you can also continue with the lighting work I started. All items in my shop are try before you buy enabled. ;) [url]http://city.reallusion.com/store/AniRhythm[/url]
