Re: Sci-tech 2014 Oscars shortlist announced
If ZBrush doesn't outright win this one there's no faith to be had in it anymore, none whatsoever. Not one item on the list has been as singularly influential and transforming for the quality of VFX assets in the last ten years, and not one of them has the same singular point of inception that ZBrush can claim in Jamie.

Re: Sci-tech 2014 Oscars shortlist announced
I'd be honestly surprised if it wasn't! What stands out to me this year is that 2 Autodesk products are currently nominated: Mudbox and Motion Builder. Personally, I'd love to see ICE nominated as well. To me it still is one of the most innovative and influential things that have happened in CG for the last 5 years. Hopefully fabric and splice will be on this next year :) On 21 August 2013 01:43, Stefan Kubicek s...@tidbit-images.com wrote: http://www.studiodaily.com/**2013/08/academy-releases-** shortlist-of-14-sci-tech-**oscar-candidates/http://www.studiodaily.com/2013/08/academy-releases-shortlist-of-14-sci-tech-oscar-candidates/ -- --**- Stefan Kubicek --**- keyvis digital imagery Alfred Feierfeilstraße 3 A-2380 Perchtoldsdorf bei Wien Phone:+43/699/12614231 www.keyvis.at ste...@keyvis.at -- This email and its attachments are -- --confidential and for the recipient only-- -- - Stefan Kubicek ste...@keyvis.at - keyvis digital imagery Alfred Feierfeilstraße 3 A-2380 Perchtoldsdorf bei Wien Phone: +43 (0) 699 12614231 www.keyvis.at -- This email and its attachments are-- -- confidential and for the recipient only --
Re: Sci-tech 2014 Oscars shortlist announced
It seems to take many years of professional usage before a new technology even gets nominated, which explains why some stuff on the list has been available solutions for years now. I wouldn't hold my breath for Fabric to be nominated next year. It will probably take a few years before they are even considered... but that's just my observation based on previous nominations.

Re: Sci-tech 2014 Oscars shortlist announced
This is not an award given for stuff people think looks cool. It's an award that companies can submit themselves for to get recognized for discoveries and innovations have contributed in significant, outstanding and lasting ways to motion pictures, and then there is a peer process to validate them. Maybe ICE or Fabric can get some Vimeo award or something. Softimage|3D got a Scientific and Engineering award in 1997 for the Actor IK module It seems to take many years of professional usage before a new technology even gets nominated, which explains why some stuff on the list has been available solutions for years now.
