:: Comments ::
shash: For the first time in 13 years, we actually finished a
production way before the deadline! After last year, I
was not very happy with the visual results, so I wanted
to push the limits regarding the kind of realistic lighting
you can do in 4k. Specially I was interested in tackling
outdoors lighting in a realistic manner, as the last time
I tried (in The Stone Pavillion) the results were kind of
lacking. Also wanted to push the 'glow' effect I used in
Soleu, and finally, my main concern with Soleu: more
textures, with higher quality. It's been a brutal project
(pun intended).
So, I would like to thank Itziar: her input on architecture,
materials, proportions, lighting and cameras has been invaluable.
As demosceners we are used to a lot of weird things, and having
input from an outsider is invaluable. Also invaluable were
Merry's comments, input, discussions, and willingless to
always help. This year he was able to finish his 8k, which I
don't expect to be anything short of awesome. Finally, I would
like to thank slack, who put up with rebooting the music five
days before the party, because I didn't like the first iteration,
in the end creating the awesome track in this 4k.
slack: Another first for us: not only finishing way before the deadline,
but also collaborating across continents and way too many
timezones. I'd like to thank Merry, as the 4klang instruments he
created for The Stone Pavilion were a very nice starting point for
this one, having to reboot the music in a few days and all that.
Maybe some day I'll publish the alternative soundtrack somewhere
(but of course you all know I'm lying, I never follow up on my
post-party promises :P).
So, this weekend I'm sofascening very hard, and wishing I was
there (watching the Demovibes Live concert right now, special
greetings to jeenio!). I hope to be able to make it there next
year. Anyway, thanks to the Revision team for the hard work, both
on site and on the remote party experience :)
Thanks to Vane for her support. Greetings from California!
Enjoy more,
