5 years later...

Hello all,

Remember this blog? I'd forgotten about it, but just realized it's been 5 years or so since we were split up, so I thought I'd say "hi" for the occasion.

For those of you not on my facebook, here's a brief update...

I'm still at Disney -- now Walt Disney Animation Studios. I initially worked on the 2D pipeline and especially production management tools (using GDI|Explorer) for Princess And The Frog, Winnie The Pooh, Goofy's How To Hook-up Your Home Theater (short), and The Balad of Nessie (short).

For the last couple years I've been working on tools for the 3D shows (especially Tangled), including Sequencer (multi-shot editor-like sequence workflow within Maya) and now Figaro (accurate interactive 3D lighting and shadowing in Maya using the GPU).

I miss working with you DTSers, but I'm happy I ended up with another good group of folks at WDAS.

I'm still living in Studio City, and still happily with Jeannie.

How's everyone else doing? Reunion lunch sometime?

David

P.S. I'll be at Siggraph and High Performance Graphics conferences this year.
