THE IP INCUBATOR CLUB.

in·cu·bate

/ˈɪnkyəˌbeɪt, ˈɪŋ-/ Show Spelled [in-kyuh-beyt, ing-] Show IPA verb, in·cu·bat·ed, in·cu·bat·ing.verb (used with object)

to sit upon (eggs) for the purpose of hatching.
to hatch (eggs), as by sitting upon them or by artificial heat.
to maintain at a favorable temperature and in other conditions promoting development, as cultures of bacteria or prematurely born infants.
4. to develop or produce as if by hatching; give form to: His brain was incubating schemes for raising money.

Welcome to the IP Incubator Club
The idea behind this Club is simple

POST MONTHLY UPDATES of Original IP that you are developing. Hopefully IP that can eventually help the creator generate some income.
Also you should provide CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK to the work posted by other posters of the club.

The idea of this “Incubator Club” is to get away from the gloom and doom and provide a lifeline of support for our fellow artists.

The artists will have at their discretion how much they wish to share on the projects they are working on, what program they will be using and the medium . But the IP HAS BE AN ORIGINAL CREATION.

DEVELOPER CO-SPONSORS
[size=2][size=2]The idea is to match developers with individual sponsors. People whose responsibility is to monitor the progress of a specific project. The sponsors would be fellow developers. It would be their responsibility to provide support and provide guidance to the developer from an outsider’s point of view. I’m not advocating “mentor ship” where there usually is an imbalance of expertise/knowledge between two parties. Rather, I envision sponsorship to be a vehicle for peer support, for consultation between and among artists who each have valuable tools, experience, and knowledge to share. Sponsorship is method for both parties to learn and grow professionally and perhaps personally as well.[/size]

[font=Verdana]
The Concept[/font]___________________________
Ok so lets recap:
[color=white]The idea behind this IP incubator club is to provide a cool hangout place for IP creators. [/color]recap…
Weekly threads will be posted, to provide encouragement for developer to keep working on their idea.

On way to see this is to think of us as a spotter on your local gym.
You use your WIP thread to post your regular updates, But ONCE A WEEK you post on the IP INC thread a summary, based on the forsmat posted blow.

I’ve been developing concept art and story for a little game for awhile and now looking for a chance to create the game itself. Please have a look.

Luna
action stealth platformer game

A travel through the child’s imaginary world.

The story:
Luna and her younger brother living in a little town with their parents. Luna’s brother has a very strong imagination. He spends his days in forest playing alone, exploring imaginary landscapes, fighting imaginary monsters and talking to imaginary creatures. Luna and her parents don’t pay much attention to the little boy’s strange behavior.

But one day the boy disappears. Luna goes to the forest where he usually spent his days, but surprisingly she finds herself not in an ordinary forest but in her brothers imaginary world, filed with strange creatures, creepy monsters and magic.

She now has to enter the unknown, find the way through darkness. save her brother, learn to fly and find the way home.

WHAT WENT RIGHT THIS MONTH:

It has been almost six months since my last update! Since then we’ve been hard at work on a brand new website, a new look for the show, and a lot of improvements on the back end.
All this work culminated into this:

Be a kid again and go play with our website

WHAT WENT WRONG:

We had to learn a lot of PHP, JavaScript, Video codecs, and HTML5. Some of our biggest struggles came in supporting the myriad of devices out there. Ultimately the site works well on devices about a year or two and newer + most desktops (Sorry Windows XP :|)

WHAT WENT RIGHT THIS MONTH:

Not much in way of the project. The rest of the month was a blast and exciting but not project related. It was an eventful, fun month with friends. Now I get to rest up a bit.

WHAT WENT WRONG:

Another let down. I find a good modeler. We can work together. I can afford and then boom! Something happens which usually amounts to them getting a job. Yup if you need a job in the industry come say you’ll work for me but then 2 days later you will get a job at your dream studio or dream project. This is number 10. All 10 got jobs.

On a side note my Kickstarter was a complete failure. I hate not being able to do what I want to be able to do. Oh well. Que sera, sera.

@ilovekaiju All things considered that is one very cool image you shared! Pretty dynamic.

CGIPadawan · 2014-07-10 20:42:25 UTC

@ilovekaiju: I don’t recall anymore how large the scale or scope of this concept was. But… have you thought of making it really small?

Like maybe a very simple short film first? like “Laser Man VS Lava Monster”…Something to get it over the hill?

ilovekaiju · 2014-07-10 21:05:54 UTC

It is as simple as I can make it. Even if I did a versus like you said that is still 2 characters.
The other series I am working on only uses 3 base models and still having an issue getting that done.

I can model to some degree I just don’t want them to look crappy. Even going the route of using premade Daz style models with morphs is quite expensive…so trying to evaulate what I need to do.

Honestly for my series “I Love Kaiju.” I really need an anime head for a guy and one for a girl.
The rest is easier to do. But I need a really good head.

CGIPadawan · 2014-07-10 22:38:48 UTC

Which kinda explains why the guys who have fit your bill are guys “between jobs”.

You’ll have to do this the old-fashioned way and go door to door on the internet to find someone.

I assume you’re paying of course?

You can still shrink it some more… At it’s most extreme? ONE character… fighting in a city made really out of 2 or 3 re-instanced buildings (rotate for variety)… and make instead a bunch of little tanks and planes and helicopters…

Sure… that’s probably not the concept anymore… but you need something that “goes over the hill”… Something to show people.

Also I was thinking you could go with “Ultraman faces”… basically simplifying it to a hard surface model/helmet design.

Even the girl can be done this way as with below’s Threezero redesign for Aphrodite from Mazinger Z:

And while we’re on the subject of Mazinger Z… can you possibly re-format the concept in some way so that it is about Giant Robots instead of organic creatures?

Cause compared to what you wanna do? Giant Robots are dead easy. And in most Japanese material the Giant Robots can do stuff the Kaiju and super tokusatsu can.

And before you say “What are you suggesting?!?” Note that the hit HBO series Western DEADWOOD was originally pitched as a “Roman Empire Drama”… HBO wasn’t ready to do another show like that because they already had ROME… so the pilot was re-written into the Western we now know as DEADWOOD.

You wanna make it happen? Sometimes you gotta change it up.

Grrrrrrr · 2014-07-11 03:30:23 UTC

Hi guys,

I’ve made a thread over at the collabs forum with my sci-fi short film called “Alone”:
http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?p=7853432#post7853432

I will just paste the content here as well:

Hi there,

My name is Vladimir Teneslav and about a month ago I just finished filming my 10 minute short film called “Alone”. You can check photos from the shoot here:
http://what-we-make.com/Alone-gallery.html

Synopsis:

Earth was destroyed and all its population was wiped out in the Dead Hour war between the outer colonies and the great rulers of Earth, the Nine. All is left now are the ruins of the great cities of Earth that bear the mark of time and the expired machines that survived the blasts and are now cursed to wander the planet in search for energy.

Andrew is the only human on Earth that, with the help of his special A.I friend called Yona, is in search of a mysterious place that could potentially change the future for a better one. However, a great enemy may come searching for him and Andrew will find himself in great danger.

Now, the filming is over but the post processing is up next and there are lots of effects shots that require attention. I decided to make this project collaborative and reach out for artists that like the theme and really want to take part of a team project.
This page will be better presented in the future, but for now it features the project’s progress:
http://what-we-make.com/Alone-join.html

If you have the skills to tackle on any of the jobs in red then please contact me here or on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/WhatWeMakeIs) or via mail at what_we_make@yahoo.com.

To list what help I need with the most pressure:

concept artist;
3D hard surface modeler;
3D organic modeler;
mattepainter;
rotoscope artist;
particle simulation (effects in general) artist;

Thanks, I will be at your service to answer any questions. The website will be updated with lots of news, behind the scenes clips and more, I just need time as I do all of these…alone.
