I’ll see what I can do

Sounds good, looking forward to Osmosis presentation.
Chris
I don’t suppose any of you are going to visit the Sydney one are you?
I’ve really got to meet you face-to-face one day Vu.
SunnyC
Hey Sunny, Sadly we wont be going to Sydney. are you going to Melbourne?
Chris Jackson
Hi Chris.
I have been planning to pop down to melbourne. I wanted to visit the Melbourne Museum. Just finding it hard to make the time. I guess there
is a possibility of seeing you guys at the Melbourne AEAF but is it any good? The one in Sydney has been declining gradually over the years. It’s almost not worth going anymore.
Sunny
There are some intersting speakers from pixar, ilm osmosis and more. I think it will be good to go and see.
You should come along!
Chris Jackson
Are you going both days?
Sunny
I am, are you coming?
I’ll try my best. We’re actually extremely busy at the moment.
We exhibited some new technology we’ve been involved with at CeBIT a couple of weeks ago so we’ve got a couple of interesting contacts to follow up on.
I’ll let you if I do pop down to cloudy town. It’ll probably only be for one day though.
Sunny
Chris,
I certainly wouldn’t group us in with the likes of ILM and PIXAR, but it may be of interest for some to see how we create 3D content on a shoestring budget and with limited resources.
If anyone from the forum comes along, feel free to come up and say hi. At least we won’t feel like we were among strangers.
Some images on the project we will be covering:
HI Vu,
I really would like to come along, but I’ve left it too late.
Did you produce content for the VROOM? I’m very eager to come down and have a look at that. I’ll drop by later next month and perhaps catch
up with you if you have the time.
I’ve working on several Stereo 3D VR projects aswell. We have our own
Passive and Active Stereo system. Loved to share experiences with you.
There must be work work we can tackle together in this market.
SunnyC
Sunny,
We did the Polar Dinosaurs content for VROOM (officially known as “The Virtual Room”). Shame you’ll miss AEAF. Looks like some very interesting talks this time round. Hope people won’t be too disappointed when it’s our turn.
If you still have my number, give me a call when you get down here and I’ll take you through VROOM.
Vu
Cool. Hope to see you sometime next month.
Have fun at AEAF.
SunnyC
hey Chris,
Did you get to go to the AEAF?
This year was pretty interesting I thought.
We got to speak to many of the presenters, the guys from Tippett, Sector3, ILM and PDI.
They were nice guys and very interesting to talk to. Hope you guys enjoyed it as much as we did.
V
Hey Vu,
Was there any new technology that blew your mind?
SunnyC
Sunny,
There were some amazing things shown, especially by the Weta guys, but I missed the entire presentation because we were still preparing our material. One of the other guys told us all about it.
I don’t believe there was any new ground breaking technology, but more delevopment on existing stuff, and pushing the tools to the limit.
Shrek 2 was awesome, not just from a technological perspective, but the story is really funny and the visuals even more stunning than the previous.
Sounds like like you had some fun Vu. How many exhibitors were there?
Was it a big turnout?
Sunny
