Helper

A little bit outdated but not to be withhold from you: Since the last three weeks I am again employed at Cartoon-Film.
I got hired for the feature film production Lauras Star and the Dreammonsters.
That gives me the possibility to follow my passion for programming and develop a bunch of complex checking tools with Maxscript.
In my spare time I am pushing my C++ project to an end, which will be published until the end of this year on my webpage. So stay tuned.

Fruit of
the day

Greetings from good old Berlin. The production of Lauras Stern 2 is over.
It was a fantastic time. So many talented artists from all over the world, worked in an inspiring way together to deliver high quality in time. I would like to thank everyone for giving me the opportunity to learn and participate in this production.

The premiere will be in Hamburg on the World Children’s Day. Officially the movie is hitting cinemas at the 24th of September this year. So grab you kids and get ready for the ride.

I am also very excited to inform you about a hardware investment I did:
From now on I am producing on a MacBook Pro, which enables me to work onside at the customers office.
This shortens communication channels and approval processes. Everything is setup, allowing for more time to be productive.
And I decided to install a triple-boot-system, which gives me more flexibility for developing and testing plugins and scripts on a much broader range, reaching more users.

Trailer Mania

Hello Pixel-Friends. Yesterday the team at Cartoon-Film had a screening in the nearby cinema Sputnik to watch some of the final composed shots.

Even without sound, the images created so much atmosphere, it was really fun to watch and to dive into the world of Laura. When released to cinema in September, the world class pianist Lang Lang will have added 10 minutes of his talent to the film.
And just recently the german web trailer went online, which I would like to share with you: www.LaurasStern.de

While on the production, I still found some time to help my friend Shai Hamburger who graduated at Animation Mentor last week, with his final thesis animation short.
I would like to congratulate him and wish him well for his animation carrier.

Green

I’ve always been aware and conscientious of my impact on the world. That counts for my personal life, so does it in my business.

I try to produce as environmentally responsible as possible including switching off monitors and stand-by devices, putting computers into stand-by or turning them off and working with responsible contractors.
That for, I also decided to get an energy supplier who is producing energy from renewable energy sources.

Greenpeace Energy is not only supplying me with clean energy, it is also investing my money into building new eco-friendly power plants, so that "green" energy sources increasing. By hiring me for your project, you are also investing automatically into a more eco-friendly world.

Cartoon

Hi there. Fortunatly, I am quite busy with working. January kept me tight.
I renovated my workroom and free-
lanced for brandatmosphere a company located in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Since the beginning of February I am at Cartoon-Film. I was doing shading at the beginning and are now working in the rigging department for the new feature-film "Laura Star 2".

This weekend I finally found the time to finish up my new layout for script documentations. I want to unify my script manuals and make it easier and more fun to use my tools. As I believe a good documentation is key for delivering useful tools to customers. You find a thumbnail at the bottom, showing the new layout.

On this occasion I documented my rfAlongPath script, which had a code refactoring and a GUI implemented.
I uploaded the script to the download area. It is now available for you. You also find at the bottom of this post a video illustrating the workflow.
