hello to all the members. i have to learn this one. very nice.

Is Squint just a rendering firm or do they actually design as well? Their animations are pretty amazing but it doesn’t seem practical for anybody outside Hollywood to spend that much time and money creating such comprehensive animations.

the mvdrv visuals are certainly very well crafted, but what i appreciate more in squint opera’s and sla’s visuals is that they convey athmosphere, a sence of place and they “tell a story”, they are charming and especially the second one of squint opera evokes a fairytale. they make me wonder and curious ot learn more about the project.

for next…[Read more]

hahaha. well i guess i wasnt doing it correctly. im a dork of dorks.

Jim is absolutey correct. What is there process. Let’s find out and post it. maybe some of our European friends can call them. Utube demos would be great. One more thing, we should try to get some of these people to NDSU.

Michael if your on land8 right now call me

all you have to do is print screen michael… all you have to do is print screen. I agree, squint/opera wins. I would like to know what there whole process is in post production. It would be interesting to find out what is 3d model, and what is put in afterwords.

honestly im not sure of the landuse protocol around turbines. I think you have to give up a little space for infrastructure but beyond that youre golden… but in any case i like the mvrdv rendering too. Squint/Opera just has so much depth and richness in their renderings, they are like pieces of art. Stinks that i cant theive the pics off their…[Read more]

Squint/Opera takes the prize every time. Very talented, however, I think Till Nowak might give them competition. I really like the rendering with the turbines by MVRDV, although I think that mechanized machinery might disrupt the plan come harvest time.

Regarding Salco, they are one of the large Landscape Contractors in Saudi, I can not comment, if they are a good employer or not.
I am personaly looking for a Landscape Architect ( Not an Architect) for my office in Jeddah ( 3-5 years experiance, moer experiance can be considered) if any body interested please send CV to: aa.algilani@gmail.com

links work. it gives me something to do and makes me feel important. ill take a look.

thanks for the link. pretty talanted people, its interesting to see how they tell a story and the proportion of graphics to images and overall style. Once you start to use these programs you begin to understand the amount of work that goes into those productions.

for those interested in animations, the imagina awards

im leaning towards rendered images but if its something closely related i guess that would work too. they dont have to be your own. just something you think is worth everyone looking at. its not like “hey look at me” its more “hey look at this” and james there isnt any judging, its whatever.. i dont think im going to get enough images where i…[Read more]

These are rendered images? Do they have to be our own? Or can they just be really good renderings we find?

Who is judging?

this is a callout for images of the week submissions. please send them to my university account. michael.vanbeek@ndsu.edu. if you are unsure of an image’s relevance send it anways, ill check it out. hopefully there is interest for this out there. if you have any other ideas post them up i would appreciate it.

Has anyone had any experience with the tree Saraca indica? I am getting conflicting information about its size from various refrence materials. I don’t know if it is a large tree or a small tree/shrub. Can anyone help? Thanks!

im going to put up a new “discussion” called image of the week, ill post it on mondays because its everyone’s favorite day.
