One of the video game properties we will be featuring on Instafilms.com is Heavenly Sword. Here is a quick test movie I did with the assets. We’ve added in tons of sword-fighting animations, so I will have to make another soon to show that off.
We continue to build out Instafilms.com for a Q1 ’09 release. While most of the site focuses on video game related content, we are launching new and original shows as well. Here is a sneak-peak at one of the new characters and environments for a show we call “Menlo Park.” I wrote this very quickly as a test to see if the new assets are working properly, and also because I am bummed I can’t buy peanunt butter right now due to a selmenella scare.
My latest project is in rapid development right now, and I am truly excited about this one!
The site is called InstaFilms, and allows you to make a high-end CG (3D) animated show instantly! The tools are really easy to use, the technology utilizes “text to speach” so you simply type in what you want the characters to say, and they speak them right away. Choosing camera angles, sets, characters, animations could not be easier.
We will be importing high-end video game characters, sets and other assets. If you are familiar with the quality level of these assets, you start to get an idea of what these movies will look like. Now, anybody can be making their own Pixar-like shows.
Please sign-up to be notified of our Private Beta Launch in January 2009. We will be rolling this out to the public during Q2 2009.
