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 […]
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 […]
I’m in the process of clearing out some of the tabs in my browser that I’ve been saving for the last few weeks. Here are some incredible pieces of tech that will be [hopefully] in our hands in the relatively close future:

Alright, so it’s been a couple of weeks since I got back from this year’s SIGGRAPH conference and I’ve thusfar posted nothing about it. Well, get your readin’ glasses ready; here’s a massive recap of all the coolness that was had. Before starting, though, I have to say that San Diego is an […]
Just dropping a quick note to gloat to everyone that I’m at SIGGRAPH in San Diego right now. There are a lot of cool things planned and I have a presentation on Wednesday. Hopefully, in the next few days, I’ll be making more posts.
Wheeeeee!
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 […]
…kicking and screaming, well sort of. A few months back, Hand Turkey gained a presence on MySpace. We were fighting a losing battle against social networks and we ultimately caved to the “go where the people are” rule. Each studio member got an account and the studio itself got a page. […]
I’ve had a couple tabs open in Firefox for a while now and it’s time for me to clear them out by posting them here and sharing them with you all.
