Stefan Ihringer<p>I took another look at the progress of xSTUDIO, the media player and review application for <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/VFX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VFX</span></a>. Seems like development is taking place not on their github but at internally at <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/DNEG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DNEG</span></a>. There is a development branch that got a few massive commits this year to sync it with their internal codebase.</p><p>Has anybody tried it yet or managed to compile it? It would be great to replace the Foundry's Hiero/Nuke Studio or the dog slow RV player...</p><p><a href="https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/xstudio" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/AcademySoftwareFoun</span><span class="invisible">dation/xstudio</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mograph.social/tags/xstudio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>xstudio</span></a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/ASWF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ASWF</span></a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/VFXpipeline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VFXpipeline</span></a></p>
Lucas Janin 🇨🇦🇫🇷<p>Trim, trim, trim… <br>My demo reel for 2025 is now more dynamic. I reduced the duration from 4:26 to 3:28. Removing some sentimental shots was challenging, but I feel better about it now. I made basic sound edits to ensure the video and audio are synchronized. It will be online soon.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vfx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vfx</span></a></p>

It was Windows ME, so even more infamous than 95. Everything between NT and Windows 7 is a muddle mess in my mind.</p><p>Lookat those dumb flying boxes! This *looped* while it installed apparently.

Brian Tatosky<p>We did what we needed, over delivered and made it look good, probably taught them all kinds of basics on how to get CG projects done and everyone was happy.</p><p>We never heard from them again after that project.

Brian Tatosky<p>It quickly was determined they had *no* idea what they were talking about or doing, and further discovered they had gotten this project through a contact at Microsoft, intended on doing it themselves, but didn't know how and then came to us. And didn't want Microsoft to know it was us executing and not them</p><p>One was frat boyish and the other explained all things with sound effects and gestures. so we called them "Sparky and Sonic Boy" behind their backs. </p><p>(2/3)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/VFX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VFX</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/CG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CG</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a></p>
Brian Tatosky<p>One of the strangest CGI project I've worked on was footage that played during the installation of Windows 95 on you computer. Animating and moving Windows logo elements. I assume it played millions of times, but probably watched by no one as they walked away and waited for the OS to install.</p><p>Two "producers" approached Rhythm and Hues with the project, as if it was a very prestigious thing and asked us all kinds of questions like "what format would you make it in?"</p><p>(1/3)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/VFX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VFX</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/CG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CG</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a></p>
