Hey, Lumen here to give a status update:
I've not been posting as much content as I'd like. Mostly, it's been Research and Development which to be honest, has been incredibly difficult, but fun. From the Rayleigh-Tyndall effect to particle simulation, it's been one hell of a year(2013). However, I haven't really found myself trying for a team which has been bewildering tons of people. Don't get me wrong...I love the idea of working for a team, but there are just somethings that I must overcome so that I might be of use.
This year is all about refining the skills that I've gained, rather than learning a multitude of things so it's going to be practice practice practice for me. No, I'm not some gifted prodigy. I've just been using a lot of the time that I've been given to understand what it is that I really want to do. I've done modeling, lighting, rigging, programming, volumetrics, animation, etc and they're all interesting areas. For now, I'm diving more into Volumetrics with a subset of rigging, animation and modeling so let's see how that goes.
Good luck! in gaining more knowledge regarding Research and Development :P ! just stumbled upon ur profile out of nowhere and started viewing ur works and kinda read ur blog hah.
Holy crap. I'm so sorry to have missed your reply. Appreciate the read. : >
