Hi! So I don't have much to post as of yet buttt...I remember in class one of the Team Fortress videos being shown to us (maybe in 3D modeling? ) and I thought it would be nice if there was a link to the rest of them in case anyone was interested:

http://www.teamfortress.com/movies.php

It's basically an online game put out by Valve Corporation (for those of you that don't know) and for a while they've been putting up "meet the characters" intro shorts for each of the different characters you can choose to play as in the game.

About a few months ago they just finished putting up the last one so they're all there and I recommend people go check it out even if you don't know much about the game. Valve has a great sense of humor that shows in their animations and I just love how progressively better they get in their story-telling and ideas overtime. (from the sniper and scout to later on the spy, medic, and pyro)

Enjoy!

I was baby sitting recently, and watched a ton of kids TV-- and I thought these commercials were an awesome application of 3D animation. Also, i love gushers.

If you need inspiration, go visit the Brothers Quay exhibition at the MoMa. Great decors are on display, showing how you can use a small space to create a big world.

And don't forget about MetroCAF this Friday!

This stop motion animation is shot really beautifully, and maybe one of you can make sense of the story. No CG though...
