I’m almost up and running… just need to install a few more libraries before getting my last full night sleep before the weekend.
High Quality Cinematic Studio
might be a bit sketchy since I haven’t actually done any work on my home computer yet,
also no hotkeys yet.
Nice rig! But I’m also prepared… ehm… I put an old gtx460 in an even older dusty Computer to get me one more Rendernode (besides the Gpu in my workstation). A little Spider lives in there, so I hope she can help… turning fans a little faster. Hope the Tech doesn’t explode. 
We launched the sprint II of the challenge last night…
You guys are welcome to join us…
SPRINT 2
TOPIC: Sand
PROP: A Red Crystal
COLOR : Blue
PHRASE: (If you have Dialogue, from a Robert Frost poem):
“Have you ever counted the grains of sand,
That swiftly flows through the hour glass stand?”
FXWARS Challenge: 41 - 3 Day Cinematic Challenge! SPRINT-2 “Sand”
When all is said and done I will be promoting the entries that enter this Sprint of the challenge on the CGSociety facebook page.
Sprint III will be next week.
I’m still in recap mode,
also I have to work over the weekend,
also you should do it.
edit: also, I’m tempted too.
SPRINT 3
TOPIC: Water
PROP: A Green Leaf
COLOR : Green
PHRASE: (If you have Dialogue, from a Robert Frost poem):
"Larger and smaller waves in the spread of the ocean yearnfully flowing,
The wake of the sea-ship after she passes, flashing and frolicsome
under the sun,
A motley procession with many a fleck of foam and many fragments,
Following the stately and rapid ship, in the wake following.
Walt Withman
