Gotta love the Barbarian Group for making the best iTunes visualizer ever.

18JulThis makes my blood boil

A Great Gatsby game?!?!?! A game based on the worst book ever… I can’t even put in to words how furious this makes me. If someone I know buys this, I will make it my life’s purpose to destroy you.

I mean, hell.. the book is nothing more than subpar alcoholic ramblings, which for some reason unbeknownst to me is lauded as a “literary masterpiece”. How a point-and-click adventure game is being made from this baffles me. There are enough vapid people you can deal with in your day-to-day life, why would anyone choose to but a game where all you do is interact with vapid people?

grrrr

There is something that draws me to unique condom package design (hehe, package). This was made by Ben Marsh, who is studying Visual Communications at Loughborough University. If this was sold at Cons, it would be a goldmine!

22AprObligatory MoGraph test

Obligatory Cinema 4d MoGraph2 test from Evan Passero on Vimeo.

I had to cut this render short… I had hoped to have about 7 seconds of particles falling and interacting, but after only getting ~2 seconds after 34 hours, and each frame’s render time increasing, I decided it was time to punch out.
