Siggraph 2008 LA August 11 - August 15th

I am so glad that Siggraph is in Los Angeles this year. I don't have to travel or get a hotel! Also, the new staff for Siggraph seem to be working very hard to make the show more accessible to artists and broader than just the white papers and the usual techie stuff. The theme EVOLVE for this year's show couldn't be more on point.
I love the new perspective on what the show should be about, in light of the evolution of the medium and more and more artists working in visual effects. CG Society has a great article covering many of the new things Siggraph is exploring this year...Check the article out! It's looking like it might even reflect more of what Massive Black has been doing in San Francisco with the show Insomania.

The show is actually Monday through Friday (August 11 - August 15th) this year, instead of the usual starting on a Sunday. This is really better for the exhibitors since most people just are not there on a Sunday.
Last year, I was working for Side Effects Software. I got a real "behind the scenes experience" of what it's like to be an exhibitor for Siggraph. It's exhausting, so be nice to anyone you see working the floor and bring them a water or buy them a beer if you see them out at night. Especially Leyla Tirgari or Cristin Barghiel - they are going to need it.
As far as speakers, it's no secret I am a HUGE fan of Ed Catmull. last time I had the opportunity to see him speak in person it was 1995 at NATE and he was talking about the revolutionary new tool - NURBS. Wowsie Wow, that was a whiel ago. Anyways he is on fo the featured speakers and I just might have to be a little under the weather that Monday morning for work, if I am not allowed to attend.

SIGGRAPH 2010 Conference Chair Terrence Masson says to prepares for Siggraph this year: Ask your vendors for Exhibit passes as always ... but Basic one-day passes are only $45 (deal of the century IMHO), one day Computer Animation Festival passes are also only $50.

Okay, Maybe I have been working in commercials too long...
but this is really funny. I wish THE CLIENT was included.

Brylcreem Ad by the Mill
This one doesn't really involve a whole bunch of CG, animation or even characters, but it sure is brilliant for "all-one-take" in a room of varying degrees of light!
The new ad for Brylcreem starring Sam Veale, featuring the music of Scottish indie rockers B Raymond and the Voicettes. Do these folks at The Mill Sleep?
To see it HIREZ click here.
Since there is no CG or real animation in that one...here is a sweet CG commercial (also by The Mill) for Heavenly Sword. I still haven't had a chance to play this game, but it really looks hot. I love the female lead, although I am pretty sure after this last fight...she would have given herself a bit of a haircut.
How excited the concept artists must be to see it all come to life?
