these are some recent graphics done in
blender, lightwave, and after effects for
FOX 59 in indianapolis, IN.

don't laugh too hard!
this is the ongoing FOX 59 NASCAR.
i think it's come a long way since its first post.
i realized just recently that there's a bar
extending from between the bottom to the top of
the window frame, ha!, just like in real cars. hehe.
that'll be next on the list of add-ons.

Well they certainly look like news graphics, hehe. I say congrats on getting your stuff on the air. I remember my first commercial that aired, I had a hard- on for days, and it was a pretty lame spot but still made me feel like Speilberg. Anyhow, agian congrats!!!

i've actually been
workin' in News Graphics
for about 2 years, so getting
my stuff on air is pretty normal.

with the fat time limits, though.

Hey I noticed you are using a Les Paulish :shame: looking guitar in that graphic of yours. I should inform you that Fender Electric Guitars:applause: are the most KNOWN guitar in the world and would be recognizable by more of your veiwers, therefore making you guys more veiwer freindly. Just an observation :thumbsup:

You're not saying that just because you work at *cough* Fender are you? ;)

flying V's are stupid looking, but les paul's kick ass (as do gibson and ibanez) - i think telecaustic was only trying to make a point, which is probably true, and not trying to say fender is better - just more recognizable to the general public....

Heh, I think he was just being silly. If it can be figured out to be a GUITAR, it's recognizable to the general public..like most of them know a Fender from a Blender. :D

P.S. Cool stuff, keep plugging away at the car..for some reason the 'ugly' with the bag on the head is great comedy :) And yeah, doing weekly TV was stressful enough, I can only imagine daily/hourly..ugh.

Hypercube, I was being kinda silly, I do work at Fender and you still couldn't be further from the truth. Fender IS the most Recognizable guitar in the WORLD. For the record, Gibson doesn't do HALF the business we do or a fraction of the advertising (though admittely they have a pretty sharp campaign). I actually don't like Gibson at all, I think the Les Paul "looks" like a 40 year old guitar, it is WAY to expensive for what it is and the headstocks break, and they are too heavy. I think a Strat is a PERFECT design, still looks very modern, it is the MOST copied guitar in the world, that says alot when it come to the design. So in the end MORE people will recognize a Fender Guitar, cause the shape is indicative to an electric guitar (we made them first remember). Plus, I make insane amounts of money to be a corporate tool, hehe, yeah right. So if Fender DIDN'T exist, you might wonder what I might pick up, a Gibson NO WAY, it would probably be a PRS and/or an Ibanez. In the end it is the same argument as Maya Vs MAX, Ford Vs Chevy and Pepsi Vs Coke.
