29 Mar 2006Woo Hoo! Im off to London tomorrow (Wednesday) for two main reasons, well 3 really, the first is to see my Girlfreinds sister who lives down there, the second is for an informal interview type thingy with Escape Studios (http://www.escapestudios.co.uk) to see wheather im going down there to study 3D in a few months, and 3rdly to see the Pixar Exhibition! I got access to an 'invited guests only' showing only on Friday!! The actual exhibition doesnt open to the public until Saturday!! Things couldent be better!

31 Mar 2006What the?!... Well I'm in Bangkok (actively running away from London! LOL) So I don't see what all the fuss is about... Oh... the Pixar thing... Oh yeah, and the girlfriend's sister is a bonus too I guess!
Have a good time mate! -
03 Apr 2006Hi all - im having a spot of trouble linking pictures here - they appear massive, i resize them in photoshop, but it seems like its doing nothing at all. Any suggestions?

03 Apr 2006LOL @ Global.
Everyone who hasn't eaten pizza should at least try it out once to see what all the fuss is about!
Iest: you having trouble resizing them filesize or dimension wise?
If filesize, go to save for web, and choose jpeg high that should help out a bit. If dimension wise, weird, resizing should work in ps. Just upload em to the server anyway and link em in. -
04 Apr 2006Thanks Cam - that works fine.
I'll upload them tonight when i finally get back to my humble home, back in North Wales. -
04 Apr 2006Hello all - I'm Back safely guys!! And boy was it good!
I had a great time over at EscapeStudios - and im going there in January of next year and i can hardly wait! Awsome!!
As for the Pixar exhibition!!!!! If you're ever in London - i highly recommend it! It's very well put together and the artwork itself is simply awsome! at the VIP thingy was Pixar's Chris Ford, Pixar's business director for RenderMan!! Not only did I get a photo oppertunity with the chap :
But I also engaged into a good chat about what he does at Pixar and how he sees renderman, and he was also very intrested in what i had to say - a really really nice chap, i could have spend hours talking to him.
As i promised, here are a few pics from the exhibition, my photos doesnt really do it justice im afraid, you'll just have to go yourself! but hopefully you should get an idea of what was on show, it was a really, really good show:
I hope it's okey to post these pics. Sorry, no pics of the GF's sister
