Jurassic Park Short Film

[teckman02]

I started working on a Thinking Machine CM-5 replica panel a couple months ago, I can probably finish it up before you need it. If you even want to use it. I think they were Cray's in the book, but TM's in the movie.

any pics of what you have done so far?

Nope, all I've done is a bit of circuit board design. It's gonna be pretty expensive to have random LED's, but could be alot cheaper with just a few random ON/OFF groups. There's 1664 LED's per panel

That would be wonderful. I've looked into the Cray XMP design, seen here:


I think the reason they went with CM-5s in the movie is they are much more visually appealing. All the LEDs really lend a sense of computer power. Where as a stock CRAY just kinda looks like the support structure for a McDonald's playplace.

Would LOVE to see you do a CM-5 replica for use in the short!

I wanted to share a couple of Jurassic Park Jeep images with you all. As I have mentioned Julien, the CGI lead for JP:Origins, has been re-working his JP Jeep 3D Model to make an incredibly accurate version for use in the film. Forum member RailTech has assisted by providing high-res images to create a detailed model. Here's just a couple of images of Julien working on the model...

These are of course just preliminary. He already has some more detailed shots but has asked me to wait to share them until they are a bit more refined. Can't wait to show you all more!

Just wanted to share a couple of new image renders from the JP:Origins Project. The JP Jeep is still a work in progress, but Julien is quickly making progress on turning it into a photo-realistic 3D model. Enjoy, and don't forget to check out our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/JPOrigins

Hey everyone, I need your help. I want to try and get Julien's new dinosaur demo reel as much exposure as possible and help spread the word about JP:Origins. I have posted a link to Julien's new reel on reddit.com. Please take a moment to follow this link http://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments ... ien_romeo/ and "upvote" the link on reddit if you like it. If you would, please have your friends do the same. If we can get this to the front page of reddit, it will probably get 200,000+ views today. !

I hate to say it, but does the Jeep look too long?


Don't get me wrong, looks fantastic....but seems a little long.
