Read online the walking dead







Hey guys, just spreading the word here! Aaron Sims, the guy you all love for his amazing work on recent hit movies like Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Clash of the Titans (still one of my favorites) has his new Directors site up, where he shows the projects he directed himself. You should definately check out the trailer of his upcoming short Archetype. On the site you will also be able to watch his full short Paralyzed.

Aaron is a character designer or conceptual artist and digital effects artist. He has worked on all the major Hollywood blockbusters of the last two decades. He worked with Rick Bakers Cinovation Studios and Stan Winston. Working with SoftImage and Photoshop, and combining his knowledge of computer technology with his experience as a sculptor made him the lead character designer on Spielbergs Artificial Intelligence, which changed the the industrys design process. He co-created Stan Winston Digital and led the studio, working on films as Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow and Constantine. He now runs the Aaron Sims Company, which worked on films such as The Incredible Hulk and 30 Days of Night. Among his team are Jerad S. Maranz (lead artist), Alex Mandrajiev (concepts/storyboards), Tsvetomir Georgiev (main modeler) and Joel Chang (head environment designer).

If you like to learn more about Aaron Sims or his approach to creature design, you should definately check out the training dvds he did for Alex Alvarez Gnomon Workshop. They include demonstrations with Photoshop, XSI (SoftImage), Deep paint and Z-brush. Excellent stuff!
