Pretty cool 3d visualisations of classic artworks. If you find it interesting you should have a quick listen to the video interview with Quayola about half way down this page: http://www.nexusproductions.com/case/strata4/index.php Interesting to see the tools he has created. Also at the end of the interview it tells you the programmes he uses as a basis for 3d programming and compositing. They are his tools towards an end result which is what we should consider all programmes… like a paintbrush.

Was chatting with the fabulous Terry Quigley today, discussing stop motion animation techniques. After looking at a video he sent me I decided there had to be a really quick way of doing people based stop motion. Having considered my options I came up with a cunning plan. In all from setting up the tripod to video output to Vimeo took around 30 minutes all in. Not bad for a first attempt at the method. I’ll probably run through this technique in one of my lectures before the end of the term in Digital Compositing if I get time.

I just came across this little gem about a man’s desire for privacy coupled with his apparent excessive amount of free time. His output consists of a much too small curtain hung in a public facing window, a motorised curtain rail, a people detecting algorithm running on a laptop all cleverly linked together with cable. His idea was to create…. naw! I’ll let him explain. The video is hilarious… information and viewing opportunity here:
