No, on the CA boards I’m just “fattkid”. I think “that fat kid” is my long lost evil twin though

hey peeps…thanks for the support. The workshop stuff is starting to pick up steam. Microsoft, Ubi, Bioware and a host of other studios are coming to recruit and some will present. it is going to be a great show. the new workshop site should go up this week if i can keep from being swamped with clients at mb. it is a busy time with e3 coming up.

as far as the dvds…we have begun production on 24 dvd titles (one series on game development through massive black and the other series will be boxed and sold through conceptart.org to support the non profit community). the first will be a character concept dvd by marko djurdjevic and a concept/maquette sculpture dvd by smellybug petey konig. these dvds have already been filmed and are in the patient stage of editing. We are pushing past the current standard/style of dvd’s on the market which put most of us to sleep …even though they are full of great info. we are hoping to have the first two on the market by workshop time and will release others as they are finalized. There are some heavy hitters on the dvd list and we are excited to be doing it. thanks for the interest.

We also have two art books in the works. One of which is near content complete and awaiting final layout. We simply need to choose a publisher at this point.

I hope to see you all at the workshop. Montreal is an awesome city and we have quite a lot planned for the event.

best,

Jason

Which means the first two DVDs should be ready (hopefully) by June.

Splendid news! I’d love to see a full blown Marko marvel comic, but he probably hasn’t got the time!

[Denart]

Awesome! Marko at Marvel!

[Sept13]

Marvelous Marko, really Too bad I can’t afford the montreal workshop, I’ll do my best to attend the european one. By the looks of it, it was great last year.

[Ego]

DVDs, Euro Massive Black, these will be excellent. You go Jason!

Anyone know about a recent thread on one of the forums featuring a large selection of MB’s work? There was one particular thread that was fantastic but I seem to have lost the link. I checked conceptart.org but couldn’t seem to locate it.

Thanks,
Devin
