Pat Watson and I are teaching a Maya Character Bootcamp this spring over at CSUMB.  Given this course outline (thank you Graffle), would you be interested in this class for $200?

I have a search on the #VFX hashtag running all the time.  It’s cool to see what other visual effects artists are doing.  Occasionally, a studio will have all their employees fire off a tweet that points back to them, either through a direct link or just the inclusion of a hash tag.  This is [...]

I’m looking at an ABCNews page about Dick Cheney and click on the short video snippet expecting to see him sneering out some horrible lie (why do I do this to myself) when I’m presented with some screeching woman going on about her potato chips.  I closed the page immediately, but felt the searing pain [...]
