[nickmarshallvfx]

Yep, another one here for Olivier Ponsonnet! This request shouldn't make ur eyes bleed quite so much tho ;)

Nick

[SquirrelEmperor]

Should get some Japanese artists like Tetsuya Nomura.

[tleisher]

I really want to see a few directors of animated films.

Someone like: Lee Unkrich, Andrew Stanton, Joe Ranft, Pete Docter, Rob Letterman, Mark Osborne, Mike Mitchell, Chris Wedge, Carlos Saldarha, Jimmy Hayward, Steve Martino or Tim Johnson.

[tleisher]

Can we get Brad Bird?

Seconded... or.. *gasp* John Lasseter (would make my lifetime if you got him)

[kevline]

Syd Mead, Church, Gabbana, Jay chuster, Tiemens

[PierluigiAbbondanza]

I really would like to see a deep view in Marko coloring process.
He's working for Marvel comics as cover artist at the moment plus many other freelance project I think!
It would be great to see him here!

[Trimatrik]

[SpaceTik]

I'd love to see a texture/lighting artist share their tips as well! :)

[DemolishMan]

I would love to see Andy Lee, the artist behind the trilogy The Lord of The Rings.

He made drawnings for almost half the movie, for the set details, armor details, weapons, elven forest, and a lot more. His drawnings are awesome.

[suitepeas]

Grzegorz (Gregory) Jonkajtys
He is an amazing artist, who develops everything from writing scripts and drawing storyboards to directing short films and all the 2d and 3d visual effects in between. He has been in the visual effects industry working on feature films for several years. He is my greatest inspiration and I admire his dark and passionate style as well as his determination to create amazingly beautiful works or art. He also did very well at Siggraph last year with Ark.

Beach water scene animation/ palm tree artist. (Low poly tree)

[ShekemUrShekem]

Luis Royo, who is probably the best 2d guy there is.

[hackett]

one of my good friends wrote for family guy and created duckman... he'd love to speak here if you guys were interested.

[tyciol]

I'd like to see artists who are working on upcoming features. The new MK vs DC game looks like it's going to be great. Games and movies both benefit from CG.

[Poever]

If we get someone from a low-end studio like Vanguard, I'll give 'em a battle but good

[DemolishMan]

Luis Royo, who is probably the best 2d guy there is.

Hi Kaustav,


CGSociety and Ballistic see a lot of work from Fred St-Arnaud being submitted both to the regular Galleries in CGTalk and some excellent work has been accepted into the Ballistic books. He's a great artist and I was lucky enough to meet him last year in Montreal.


Also, Alp Altiner, as you may know authored one of our books, and we featured an interview a couple of years ago with him, linked from the Ballistic site. Here it is (http://www.ballisticpublishing.com/articles/alp_altiner/index.php).

[joyisaac]

I was going through the replies and gone to some sites to see the works of artists. It was a thrilling experience. What all an artist can envisage? I was wondering, as I was going through the sites, if Raja Ravi Verma of Kerala was present in this time and was sharing his works in Fourms what would have been all of us have to tell about him.

DanielWray - I agree that although its great to read up on artists etc. getting the perspective of producers, managers and even TD's more aimed at behind the scenes R&D/Tool dev and pipeline management - I find there's so many fascinating areas in the CG industry that are kept a little in the dark because they're not hand on pushing pixels

I'd really like to read a Q&A of Marek Denko, but more so, I think many people would. I think the level of his work is beyond 98% of people in this field and he pays so much attention to detail that his work is unrivaled. I am currently a VFX student about to graduate. The one commonality I've found with students from all around the world is they all know about Marek Denko. Every time we look at his 2006 reel "Moving Stills" our eyes light up in anticipation and awe...that reel still stands despite how quickly the technology advances every year. Moreover, it just goes to show that quality work is quality work, irrespective of when it was made. Technology can help you but that man has raw dedication and a keen eye.

I would really like to see interviews with artists that did not get into art until later in life. Such as their mid thirties or later. Most interviews are with people who have been drawing all of their lives and I fully understand why that is, but I think it would be interesting to see a different perspective.

I would really like to see interviews with artists that did not get into art until later in life. Such as their mid thirties or later. Most interviews are with people who have been drawing all of their lives and I fully understand why that is, but I think it would be interesting to see a different perspective.

Watch CGSociety over the next week. I have just interviewed an interesting artist who spent most of his working life as a neurosurgeon, and then a motor mechanic. Now he creates the most spectacularly real architectural building creations in 3D. His name? just wait.

A legend, inspirator and artist.
Show and set the future with marriage of Pin-up and science.
I hope he will teach someday more as he do know.

Even though Feng Zhu is really awesome, he is very much featured in his YouTube videos, would be nice if there was a slight chance of doing something a bit more rare...

I'd love to meet here the artist Maciej Kuciara to learn more about color and lighting, he is a master on it! The other thing that surprises me is his textures and brushwork. Just take a look in his works.
