The Daily Workflow: Workflows for filmmakers and media professionals

Pablo just wrote about this interesting website about workflows and digital cinema equipment  http://www.wolfcrow.com .  In Pablo´s own words: "there are plenty of articles written with huge reasonableness, and away from the "spec whore" mentality found in the majority of webs". Readers of this blog might like to have a look at "VFX and CGI Workflows" ( http://wolfcrow.com/blog/vfx-and-cgi-workflows ). Have a look at the "About" section too, where you will find that the author, Sareesh Sudhakaran, lives in Mumbai, India, and that " Wolfcrow (or wolfkrow) is workflow spelled backwards. Yikes! "

Jeffrey´s "CG 101 For new Producers"

Jeffrey Dates posted this recently in a newsgroups and h e kindly allowed me to repost it in this blog, you can check more stuff at his personal site  www.kungfukoi.com " So a short time ago, I was asked to give a 'boot camp' for some freshmen  and sophomore producers on what exactly happens during CG production.  Just  a basic, basic oversimplification of CG production with visuals. It went over really well, and sort of went viral around our studio. I just wanted to share with you guys. I hope you get a kick out of it also. http://kungfukoi.com/files/onset/CG_101.pdf Cheers, Jeff."
