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.

http://vimeo.com/7809605

"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:

Avatar. Go See. Be Amazed.

5 stars in the Auckland Herald Weekend. It seems people are liking the film. That's good eh?





I'm still not sure what exactly it is we have created. But it is cool. If you can, please see it in 3D. It makes sure you really go to Pandora.
