-HSM will be %90 3d animated with none of the remaining %10 being stopmotion animation... So there will be no stopmotion character animation in this new animated feature film...

- The film will be 120-140 minutes long...

- Str8nime will not be used in this new film... a new technique is being developed instead...

- A 3d "We are the Strange" sequel episode that will follow Rain and Ori is planned for release with the DVD of HSM...

- I will be releasing 2-3 new music videos for various artists over the next 5 months...

  1. I really like the stop motion, but you got to follow your muse.

    Fantastic news about the WATS sequel being included on the DVD. Thank you!

    Looking forward to following your production diaries as I'm going to be working with C4D as well.

    I like computers, too (also pencils)

  4. Well right now I'm working in Blender, since I can't uhh...aquire Cinema 4D yet. I posted a few things on my blog about what I've done. But when C4D 11 comes out I'm gonna give it a shot and see how I like it.

    Either way though I'm joining the 3D club xD

  5. 120-140 minutes?! That is mega hella awesome.

    I downloaded the C4D 11 demo, and began messing around with it. I've never used any animation program before, but your tutorials and the C4D Cafe have been very helpful! Maybe one day I will be able to make my own animated film...once I get a powerful enough computer and the actual program, haha. But anyways, awesome news, I look forward to upcoming Mdot videos!

What format should I render out of Cinema 4d with?

UPDATED 2_27_13!  RENDER USING EXR Lossy Zip16! Since I'm working on a new feature film that will generate over 1500 shots made up of image sequences I need to make sure I choose the right file format to render to lest my hard drives explode. What I need from my format is  at least 16bit, an alpha included and preferably small size. I rendered out a frame from my film tallied up all the file sizes here- their all different types of codecs listed from smallest file size to largest. The render includes an RGBA pass, Depth pass, and Material Luminance pass because thats what I always render out. 1.00mb 8bit-Photo Jpeg %100 1.27mb 8bit-PNG 4.65mb 16bit- EXR lossy ZIP16 5.75mb 8bit-PSD 6.23mb 16bit-EXR lossy PLZ 6.44mb 16bit-PNG 7.94mb 8bit-TIFF 8.50mb 16bit-EXR Lossy 24 9.05mb 16bit-EXR Lossy Run Length 14.6mb 8bit-TARGA 22.4mb 32bit-EXR ZIP16 24.6mb 32bit-EXR Zip1 25.6mb 32bit-EXR PLZ 29.3mb 16bit-TIFF 29.3mb 16bit-PSD 40.0mb 32bit-EXR Run Length 58.7mb 16
