It’s been quiet here mainly because I’ve been busy with freelance work.<\/p>\n

I recently concluded a gig as a rigging TD over at Huhu Studios<\/a>; that was for about a couple of weeks. It was a good place, though a tad bit quiet and people generally keeping to themselves. It was good to see some familiar faces, however; there were a good number of folks there that were my former students, and they were always great to be around with. It’s good to see them working, too.<\/p>\n

More recently, I’m working for a post-production outfit called Toybox<\/a> working as a generalist on some commercials. Very cool and professional people; I like the atmosphere a lot and the pace is a bit more my liking: always on-the-go. But living up in Snells Beach is a bit of a bother; I get by car-pooling with a friend who actually works in another CG facility across the street. If my gigs get more regular in Auckland, it may be time to consider moving down, I suppose.<\/p>\n

I’ve also been working on Janus <\/a>ever since I managed to make it work for the Mac. Funny thing is, I’ve been trying to get Janus to play nicely with the Mac ever since I released the product. It was only because I had to optimise the Janus GUI recently that I had revived my hope for running on the Mac, having suspected a heavily-laden GUI to be the source of the trouble in the first place. But at that time, I couldn’t be bothered to revamp the GUI because Janus had other issues to contend with.<\/p>\n

Just before I got busy with Janus, I completed development (for final release) a LightWave to After Effects utility, which was commissioned by a fellow professional LightWaver who is based in Malaysia. LW2AE, as it is called, is not yet released, but I’m hoping to suss that out when I release Janus for the Mac.<\/p>\n

Despite being in the middle of all this, I hope to get one ongoing personal project out of standby-mode soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
