    I think it's all a matter of HOW it is done, if we hire actors and actresses and put them in mocap suits, throw them in a greenscreen room and capture it then yeah we could do this all day long AND we could do it NOW!

    I remember years ago when I told people that Disney was scrapping their animation dept and going to make NOTHING but CGI movies, this was AFTER they announced it publicly and people STILL said I was batshit lol.

    WILL cgi "REPLACE" humans NO! but you are 100% correct that within the next few years humans will co-exsist with CGI models in movies.

    Hi there, good to see you are doing doing well
    I have not forgotten about beowulf of course but i think smigel (Lord of the Rings) is a
    even more impressive example. Still, shooting a porn movie with actors and then replacing
    them with artificial actors.... don't know. Aside of the expense i seriously doubt that
    traditional motion capturing methods would work in a hardcore scene :D

    Regarding the price of 3D porn work... i think a lot of ppl simply underestimate the
    expense. I use poser, a rather cheap prog that allow fast results and a big base of
    affordable props. Still i spend a few $100 on props each month. That pic i posted took me
    almost a day to finish. OK, on my new box (quad core, 8Gig RAM, Vista64) i would have
    been a few hours faster. Still i hate to sell my renders - even semi-exclusive, so i usually
    don't do custom work... maybe some single renders for fans, but that's it.

                Expenses aside, I know of artist producing the same or lower quality work as I do and they are attempting to charge 10X what I charge lol

                as for the monthly props, on average I've been spending at LEASE $500 for new toys but then again as I texture allot of my own stuff these days it really balances out quite nicely

                I can pick up a nice moprh/texture package and turn it into at least 10 unique models so I make my money back no prob.

                My biggest issue these days is I have well over 200gigs of shit to sort through and then re-sync all my render boxes, I know I have more dead weight then even I want to sort through lol.

                    As long as you're gonna keep actors that are alive, you are biting your own leg. Let's see how good It does without riding on the names....

                                I must be among the small percent of people who actually saw this one - and it was actually quite good. The concept was intriguing.

                                    Great potential... we'll see how the technology progresses over the next few years.

                                        Hmmm... what does an animated 17 year and 11 month old vs. a 18 year old look like?
