Kieron,
glad you enjoyed my response. I have a lot of fun on CI$ <g>.
Virtuosity probably has more 3ds effects than any other film before. I think
the vast majority were done in 3ds (about 120 effects shots), but there's also
some shots being done by the SGI department of Sony Imageworks. I certainly had
some influence on the shots I was involved in. We had a great Visual Effects
Supervisor/Art Director [C (John Townley) who actually listened to the
animators suggestions. And mine too. I was the animator and CG supervisor for
quite a lot of the sequences.
Games weren't a stepping stone into films. They both sort of happened at the
ssame time, and in parellel.
