hmmmm..it was fun, it was crazy..too much bling..but it was really informative and I ended up making contacts with a lot of industry people.
SIGGRAPH 2012 was in Los Angeles this year and it attracted around 30 thousand people. That is a big number. This was my first SIGGRAPH and it felt really nice to be meeting so many people from the Industry. You see, Im not used to that. As soon as I step outside my studio at the end of the day Im usually trying to come up with an answer to “What do I do for a living?“ An answer simple enough for a layman, for the guy at the department store.I was overwhelmed to meet so many people from the VFX industry.
Anyway back to the point. What did I get from SIGGRAPH?
- A lot of business cards.
- a big pile of swag.
- an urge to learn Python.
- An insight into the new technology.
- a lesson. NEVER TO GO AS A Student Volunteer again. Missed almost every good talk :(
- Bumped into Nick Campbell(the Gorilla)
