This aerial shot from one of our drone operators last night is just fantastic. I still can’t believe we timed this shot just right with the 🚆! Our team put so much love into the way that moon spins, and how the shadow could work, and it really paid off in the end. Massive..yet serene. A perfect #LasVegas nightlight. 😍 🚁🎥: Ben Ellington #spherevegas #msgsphere

"As if Wes Anderson ran amok at Aardman: Harold Halibut, the visually stunning puppet adventure game" - dev took 14 yrs. Instead of limiting vision to tech, devs waited for tech to catch up to the vision. #games #adventuregames #gamedesign #puppets theguardian.com/games/2024/a…

The American people want healthcare, good education that doesn’t sink them into debt, the ability to afford housing, and the ability to retire at a reasonable age. All we get is war.

Noticed today: As deadlines inch closer, the scale your team works at increases on the miro board. 🤣

Before sphere launched Aura sat across from my desk for a week or two, and lived in the sphere test space in Burbank. Was truly in awe of Engineered Arts system for the easy animation tools, and for their amazing chatbot scripting. Their team is phenomenal.
This blew my mind The little girl was shy to talk to the robot. But the AI quickly turned that around 1/4

In a world where everyone can make digital things, being a maker might be one of the most important skills. To bring people something truly novel now, we must construct beyond.

The deers in Netflix’s #leavetheworldbehind were worked on from scratch - drawing on our Melbourne team’s widespread creature and #animation skills. Watch the full breakdown of our true-to-life, ominous-looking deers here: youtube.com/watch?v=ziIoU_Vt… #vfxbreakdown #vfx #CGI

Jensen Huang is clearly one of my favorite founder / CEOs ever now. This guy’s interviews are top tier.

A few fun shots from our @sxsw @Framestore workshop on realtime AI workflows. We created a custom Lora based only on needle felt materials, which we could reapply to various inputs, like our #UE5 Gaussian Splat scene (thanks @LumaLabsAI) and NDI live streaming camera feed.

Huge props to Johannes Saam for pitching this workshop earlier in the year to SXSW, and for jamming on this with me, and thanks to @karlwoolley for making it all happen!

We focused on the nuanced control and styling of #austintexas and of the room we were in, and then we turned the live camera onto our audience, and they chose to become 🦖.

We wanted to show how artists can use these kinds of techniques in a way that’s beyond casually prompting images, and dive into it from a more controlled level. We’re really excited about leveraging game engines and ai in tandem. 😍
