Yeah... time to take the dust off this blog! :)
Lots of work (combined with a little indiscipline) made that I went away from writing here, but I'll try my best with this post. ;)
The video we made for the song My Favorite Way was nominated Video of the year on MTV! We didn't win that, but I see this nomination as a prize in itself. :)
Speaking of prizes... I'm humbled and extremely happy to know I won "Best Character Animation" at Blender Pro (Brazilian Blender Conference)! :D
The piece that won this prize was "Monster":
Thank you very much to everyone who voted for this piece, and my kudos to all winners and everyone who helped make another successful Blender Pro! :)
One more thing... I just want to say that I'm working in a completely new version of my rig Otto. And I mean completely:
I've been studying various rigging approaches, from Blender and other apps. I'm going to try some cool things I've found, bringing the best I see on those rigs.
With the upcoming Blender 2.5, it doesn't make much sense to release a final version now. So the actual release will be only after the final 2.5.
And that's all, folks! ;)
