So I’m in Amsterdam for the Blender Conference. It’s currently the second day of the conference and this is the largest B-conf yet. There were 150 registrants and the new venue is fantastic. I believe that they are recording each of the presentations being made. Hopefully the will be posted on blender.org or Blender Nation […]
I got around to scanning a couple more of the sketches I got knocked out recently. They’re in the gallery now. Have a gander:
For this year’s Blender Conference in Amsterdam, the venerable macouno is doing the video work for the Suzanne Awards. For this, he created a neat little robotic monkey named Petunia. The character itself is cool, but even better is the fact that macouno asked the community to participate by creating some animations for […]
After four months without updates, I’ve finally gotten around to updating the gallery on blender.org. I couldn’t have done it alone. I got a huge amount of help from blender user and developer, ZanQdo. We went through the submissions and ultimately selecting a total of 74 images to be added to the […]
Recently, we (Hand Turkey, that is) finished creating a logo for the developer of FlowPlayer. FlowPlayer really is quite sweet. It’s a Flash video player that you can embed in your website to play FLV files (and high quality h.264 files once Adobe releases a new version of their Flash player). And […]
Recently, we were asked to create a logo for the very cool open source Flash video player, FlowPlayer. We actually use FlowPlayer in our animation portfolio, so we were glad to work on this and honored that the program’s developer, Anssi Piirainen would want us to create one. We were essentially given free […]
Check it out! In the October issue of 3D World, they did a short little review on the Advanced Blender Fluids training DVD that Hand Turkey produced with CmiVFX. It got an 8 out of 10! And they spelled my name correctly. Woohoo! This deserves an exploding bathtub (seen to […]
For your viewing and feedback, these were added to the sketchbook gallery…
I had some time during (and a touch after) Red Hat High to do a bit of drawing, so I sketched out a handful of characters. Some are better than others, but I think most of them would be fun to bring to life in animation. As with other ones before these, click […]
As you may have read on sheep-dot or the Hand Turkey Studios website, I recently taught again at Red Hat High in Raleigh, North Carolina. An article about it that I wrote for Blender Nation has just been published. I love the concept of this camp and I hope that I’ll be asked to continue […]
