Sanford,
>> I'm animating 7 days a week now… <<
Yeah, I kinda figured. <g> >> It gets in the blood… << Yeah but so does tall
blondes with long legs, racing cars, cutting video, sailing (which is probably
the only thing that keeps me sane, the tall blondes definitely don't <g>) and a
few other things… and while I enjoy those things I don't spend anywhere near
as much time with them as I do this stuff… And believe it or not, I don't
actually look like a geek, even though being around these machines all the time
has probably turned me into one. <G>
I think those guys in Venice Beach have the right idea… plenty of
distractions, so maybe you could get away with only putting in 10 hours a
day… <g> The allure of those sleek racing forms on roller blades would pull
me away at least once in a while… <g>
>> Have you though about doing something like Noah's Arc with all the wire
meshes on the Syndesis ROM… <<
I'm not sure that kind of thing is my calling… I'm more into the graphics
logo stuff and abstract design of things… opens and ID's tags etc. I can do
character animation when I can relate to the characters but that's not often…
Fantasy Adventure games I can do, and some Sci FI stuff but animals are in a
totally different league, at least for me.
But I'm open to the idea of a joint entreprise on something… however now is
not a good time anyway. Contrary to popular perception about hanging out here,
I actually spend more time here when I've got work to do… as I can't often
get away and this becomes an escape… <g> Sometimes the deadlines are so
tight and I'm so exhausted, I don't even have time for that… Next few weeks
promises to be pretty intense, but we'll see. Lets keep the dialog open though,
and see what develops…
Later,
John
