Cool interview. This is the first I've heard of them. They sound like a great Co. :thumbsup:

It's amazing how many great companies doing bad a$$ work there are out there....That's one of the reasons I love all these user profiles that are poping up all over the net....:bounce:

I think they rock! Their Demo Reel is amazing and has some really great work on it. You should go to the site and check out some of their animations!

Thanks proton once again for giving us more useful insights from people who work behind the tv and pc screens.

These stories are practical to anyone working with 3d visual media.

Yeah, actualy I am from Murfreesboro, I currently live a little further out, off of 231, but was working in Nashville at one time so driving does not bother me.

I am not sure if you saw that Allens Air care commercial with the dog, about a year ago in the winter? Where he got stuck under the couch, I know it was bad, but I did it alone in 1 month from concept creations to broadcast, as well as working on some websites during that time.:D

[vangaans]

Wow! Now this is a place where I'd like to work....

Great read Proton and thanks for opening your doors Magnetic Dreams.

Downloading the showreel now...:applause:

IN THIS POST ITSELF...NOTICE THE *******CUTE CG smiley****
in user: Juggernaut's REPLY... love it... i tried looking for it... couldnt find..:thumbsdow :rolleyes:

[boxcrash]

just right click over the smilie and "Save Picture As.." somewhere on your drive, then upload it somewhere. Then when you want to use it select "IMG" tag and place it in there, the URL for the smilie.

Or over in the Smilies just use the "Get More" hyperlink at the bottom, under Showing: 25 of 39. It is in there.:scream: :deal:

Or you can use :d-eal: without the - .
