Computer Graphics World - Home. SciTech Oscars. Sun 9th Jan 2011 | News The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced that ten scientific and technical achievements represented by 22 individual award recipients will be honored at its annual Scientific and Technical Awards Presentation at the Beverly Wilshire on Saturday, February 12, 2011.
Unlike other Academy Awards to be presented this year, achievements receiving Scientific and Technical Awards need not have been developed and introduced during 2010. Rather, the achievements must demonstrate a proven record of contributing significant value to the process of making motion pictures. The Academy Awards for scientific and technical achievements are:Scientific and Engineering Awards (Academy Plaques) To Tony Clark, Alan Rogers, Neil Wilson and Rory McGregor for the software design and continued development of cineSync, a tool for remote collaboration and review of visual effects. cineSync has become a widely accepted solution for remote production collaboration.

With Frank Beau I call my approach "technobole", i.e. an investigation into the theoretical and epistemological foundations of the technology. The first part explores the various techniques as they are employed in the production process. Digital Images: Properties deals with fundamental aspects of the various types of digital image production. Modeling describes various techniques for constructing 3D objects and scenes - polygon, procedural and image-based modeling as well as 3D scanning - and examines their use and properties in certain films, while at the same time delivering insights into the fundamental differences between these processes.

Fission bombs use an element like uranium-235 to create a nuclear explosion, the fuel must be kept in separate subcritical masses, which will not support fission, to prevent premature detonation. The two or more subcritical masses must be brought together to form a supercritical mass at the time of detonation. To bring the subcritical masses together into a supercritical mass, two techniques are used; Gun-triggered and Implosion. The bomb known as Little Boy (left) was the first nuclear weapon used in warfare dropped on Hiroshima by the B-29 Enola Gay.
It was a Gun-Triggered Fission Bomb where one subcritical mass of uranium was fired along a tube into another subcritical mass of uranium that had an explosive force (or yield) equal to about 20,000 tons of TNT. The Fat Man bomb was the second nuclear weapon used in warfare and was dropped on Nagasaki in 1945. Fission bombs worked, but they weren't very efficient.

The Rorschach test uses the same process. This can build a better bridge between the conscious and the subconscious. Working with Chaos is (IMHO) a good way to work on surrealism and dream representation. Al.chemy is an open-source software really well designed for helping me create a rich 'chaos' (with different value of gray, geometric and organic shapes). Chaos can be interpreted in many ways as I described previously. I wanted to place my Alice in the center of my composition. Adding a human element is important in my workflow. . - A perspective space information, with the grid.- A relative scaling, with the human silhouette of Alice.
With those rules, the Chaos starts to inspire other elements, and the process of 'underlining' them with painting is simple, really funny and distracting. 3D World – The Magazine for 3D Artists. Animation World Network.
