To The Artists of
Avatar
eyeon would like to congratulate Blur Studio,
Hybride Technologies, and Prime Focus for their
dedication and hard work on James Cameron's newest
technological film achievement, Avatar.
Avatar is a visual effects heavy, 3D sci-fi
fantasy set in the future on the world of Pandora.
A group of marines must combat the indigenous
people, the Na'Vi, to gain access to an
energy-rich mineral worth millions back on Earth.
This film is expected to be one of the
biggest films of the year, with visual effects
that have already been praised as technical
excellence with remarkable animated
rendering. Avatar takes the art of animation
and 3D filmmaking to a higher level than ever
before.
To all the artists who have worked on this
tour de force, we would like to offer our
compliments and we look forward to seeing the
great success that is Avatar. Without you, there
would be no Pandora.

Forum Posting of the
Month
Each month we will post
a new gem from the forums. Some will be helpful,
some will be satirical, some will be entertaining.
Enjoy them all.
First posting of the year is from
Pigs Fly Forums ~ Generation Script
Annotations To Xml
Is there a script to put the annotations
(saved as a text file) into 1 XML file which can
be opened and edited by excel? The ideal would be
if the information from the excel changes would
also go back into the annotation text files (and
therefore also back into generation). This would
be a mayor advantage for the administration of our
projects.
Thanks for the
effort!

Prime Focus Used Fusion
As The Compositing Application On All Avatar
Shots
Chris Bond, President & Senior VFX
Supervisor, Film VFX, North America, Prime
Focus, had this to say about his studio's use
of Fusion on the movie Avatar.
"From the very beginning of any
stereoscopic film project, including James
Cameron's Avatar, we work in stereo. This applies
for every shot, and on Avatar, Fusion 64bit
allowed us to quickly prototype the shots
and control the stereo workflow.
We even used Fusion's 3D toolset
to bring in cameras and assets to assist with
stereo placement.
Make no mistake - Fusion was
as important to us delivering the show as the
artists working on the project - that's why
Fusion is installed at every artist's
station, whether it's compositing, 3D or any
other department."

Peerless Camera
Creates Art For The Imaginarium Of Dr.
Parnassus
Terry
Gilliams's film, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus
is wildly imaginative. The long awaited, last
film of Heath Ledger is coming to the big
screen in North America this month.
The elaborate visual
effects produced by Peerless Camera have
been drawn from Gilliam's boundless imagination
and inspiration from American gothic
painters.
Animation World
Network talked to John Paul Docherty, of
Peerless Camera, about the work the team
did for the film. Read more here.

Eden FX Crashes Into The
Future With Fusion
Imagine if the whole world briefly
lost consciousness simultaneously and witnessed a
global, sixth-month flash forward. That's the
premise of the trippy, sci-fi series Flash
Forward, created by Brannon Braga and David
Goyer.
Many studios worked together to
bring this time-warp action television show to the
screen.
Eden FX worked on two big set pieces: episode
four has the bus crash and episode seven has the
rooftop suicide. They used a combination of
Fusion and Lightwave. Read more about the VFX
work on Flash Forward here.
