Understanding of How The Consumer’s Brain Works

Not much machinima happenings around the wired world (or unwired for that matter). There is an an interview with Chris Burke the writer, producer and director of This Spartan Life over at katundu.com. Its a quick read.

Also, AlienThink.com has released a “CG Character Design” Instructional Film via Google .

“'CG Character Design' is for Mastering how to draw state-of-the-art characters for Next-Generation Video Games using High Level Thinking and Design. This new way of Thinking gives CG Artists a deep understanding of how the consumer’s Brain works, allowing them to draw original character designs that connect.

Ya, that 'gives CG Artists a deep understanding of how the consumer’s Brain works' is apparently in there, in Zen format. If I had that info I wouldn't be using it to sell CG Character Design. At 2hrs and 20 minutes, the video can be found here.

Finally, off topic, I came across this image for Appleseed 2. The CG film titled as "Appleseed Saga Ex Machina" will be directed by Shinji Aramaki and produced by John Woo. I'm looking forward to what they pull off with this sequel.
