* I will be giving 2 presentations at this year's "End User Event 2009" May 28th-29th in Utrecht, The Netherlands. The first will be the Pixar related talk "The Sets Of Wall-E: Trash Planet" where I will discuss some of the challenges the Pixar sets team encountered making a giant world of trash. The second talk will be called "Shading And Texturing Hard Surface Models", which will be a non-Pixar talk where I show a number of techniques I use in my personal work when shading and texturing hard surface models. While 3dsmax will be my primary example platform, theory from this talk can be applied to the 3d app and renderer or your choice. For more info, please visit here.
* Also added 2 new simple Photoshop tips, Converting A Grayscale Image To Black On Transparent.
* Added Changing A Photoshop Layer's Color To A Different Color While Keeping Transparency.
