Nice to see Zack, it’s always more fun to see ideas from beginning to end. I like the solution sketch/character, can’t wait for the feature. One of my favorites! :wink:

What makes for ambiguity in a feature?

#10

I did pay close attention at the siggraph lecture

here are some examples of ambiguity

these are from different movies..but they are so similar its hard to really see the diffrence. from a character creators perspective one seems to inform the other to such an extent that they could all be from the same film. another thing was the limitations of hw/sw and how that dictated the form and design of the past..limitations software hardware based lead to design limitations..emerging and trying to wrestle control back from the descisions of the past; are design based solutions where the artist (or producer) sets the tone not the machines limitations..yaaayyy

the fact you mentioned this stuff

was a nice touch

Fantastic! It’s really nice to see something thats looking at the bigger picture. I hope Zack does another DVD at some point because there is clearly lots that can be learnt from him.

Edit: Oh this was from the Siggraph presentation? Will the full thing ever be available, by any chance?

#17

the most recent sig…here in Boston
he did speak on the matter covered in the .qt

#18

Ahh that makes sense. I wish I had been able to make it to the last Siggraph : /

Just finished the video. Great stuff Zack. It is nice to see a discussion on design method! It definitely has me thinking.

A while back I posted a bust I had created of Tars Tarkas using ZBrush. Since then I have been working on the whole figure (my first) in LightWave, using ZBursh to help fill it out. This video came as a pleasant supprise to me as I’ve been spending a lot of time on this project. TarsTarkas3view.jpg

I had the pleasure to watch it there in the siggraph, and it was very very interesting, i´m glad to be able to watch it again here! as usual, a pleasure to see zack´s stuff

#23

Cool stuff…thanks for sharing !!!

#24

see title!
French Pee lou is #2 on my list!!!

#25

actually I’m surprised at the ambiguity of the Tars Tarkas that Mr Petroc showed himself. According to the description, I think something much more bug-like… tusks in mouth could be mandibles etc, and the only thing in the natural world I can think of with antenae is bugs. So, I would have used bug eyes etc… maybe even an exoskeleton.
