We've Moved


The blog has been retired - it's up for legacy reasons, but these days I'm blogging at blog.theodox.com. All of the content from this site has been replicated there, and that's where all of the new content will be posted. The new feed is here . I'm experimenting with crossposting from the live site, but if you want to keep up to date use blog.theodox.com or just theodox.com

Classic (?) CG: Bingo the Clown

From the Classic CG files comes Bingo the Clown. This was originally created to showcase the capabilities of Maya 1.0, back in 1998. It creeped me out then and it creeps me out now.




I've been told, I don't know how correctly, that Chris Landreth - the animator who did this film - was the driving force between Maya's decision to use Euler angles for everything. I hope that's not true. Having this video and those goddamn Euler angles on your conscience is a lot to answer for.
