Take a look at this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfPjECjGj8c from produced in a brazilian studio almost 2 years ago. http://www.dinamofilmes.com.br Hugs from Brazil.

Good execution though! Great job Spon! VA:F [1.4.8_745] Rating: 0.0/5 (0 votes cast) Log in to Reply Comment by Fabiano: Wednesday, November 22nd 2006 at 11:07 am \| I really is. The job is excellent and much more photorealistic, the brazilian one has a cartoon style (more comic), I think most of what we see today is a reflection of yesterday. Anyway, congratulations for the job.

On a side note, I hear that they are no longer offering free lunches. Say it ain’t so?!

You can also see the full sequence at: http://tysonibele.com/Main/Animations/spider_fly.mov At least our fly has a reason for using the jet engine VA:F [1.4.8_745] Rating: 0.0/5 (0 votes cast) Log in to Reply Leave a Reply Click here to cancel reply.
