Exhibition Poster

I finished the poster for the exhibition last night... now I just gotta get it printed... it kinda came out looking like a movie poster I think ;-)  The infrared book I made with mycanvas.com came in the mail too and looks stunning... I'll post some preview pictures from that in the coming days.

Oscars

Well we went and got ourselves another Visual Effects Oscar yesterday for a Avatar. That's fantastic! Nothing can go everyone's way though. Maybe some people feel a little left out? Maybe not? Whatever happened there, THIS is too funny not to share:

Exhibition Flyer

ok the exhibition flyer just went off to the printers and will come back in a few days... then I can start distributing it and then also mail out invites for the opening... take a look:

It's reminiscent of the book cover with a few differences... and I'll probably use this sort of design for the poster too.

I've also finished the book and ordered a couple to see how they come out... I'm considering offering a smaller version at the show.

Next it's time to investigate framing options that don't bankrupt me... ;-)

Benoit Paille on Deviant Art

I'm really enjoying Benoit Paille's photography on Deviant Art. Take a look if you have a moment: http://benoitpaille.deviantart.com/gallery/

Back to the day job

Well,

Avatar has certainly steamrolled past most previous records for box-office takings and looks to continue on for a little while yet even:

In the meantime, I'm getting ready for my exhibition in April. Plenty of stuff to plan and arrange and now it sounds like my Mum and Dad will be here in Wellington for the opening night!! YAY!

The Third & The Seventh

If you have a moment, take a peek at this absolutely beautiful piece of CG by Alex Roman titled The Third & The Seventh.

"A FULL-CG animated piece that tries to illustrate architecture art across a photographic point of view where main subjects are already-built spaces. Sometimes in an abstract way. Sometimes surreal."

Here's a link to Alex's site: http://www.thirdseventh.com/

Avatar continuing to do well

Things are still going really strong for Avatar. I saw in IMAX 3D a week ago and it was a little too large for my taste but still kinda jaw-dropping... I bet JC gets this wherever he goes now... poor dude:
