OCTOBER 2000 JOINT MEETING
Computer Graphics Film Show: SIGGRAPH Video Review
Featuring "Bunny," the Oscar-winning
Animation from Blue Sky Studios
Jeff Posdamer
For the twenty-first year in a row, we are kicking off our
season of meetings with the very popular computer graphics
film show. This will also be the fifth year for our current
graphics speaker, Jeff Posdamer. Jeff will be showing some
of the latest and greatest of the computer generated
animated films that were shown at recent ACM/SIGGRAPH
computer graphics conferences.
Jeff will show a variety of technologies: scientific
visualization graphics, commercial graphics used in
television and movies, and some examples of current computer
graphics research. The films include everything from
state-of-the-art supercomputer technology to graphics
that can be done with today's personal computers. Come
see why this is the best attended meeting we have all year.
You can preview the SIGGRAPH 2000 trailers online at
http://www.siggraph.org/s2000/conference/caf/trailers.html
This year we also are pleased to be presenting the 1998
Oscar Award-winning short film "Bunny." As the first film
to use an advanced ambient lighting technology known as
radiosity, Bunny set new standards in cinematic storytelling
for the computer animation industry. Written and directed
by Chris Wedge, a founding member of Blue Sky Studios, Bunny
has a warm, photorealistic style that belies the computer
technology that made it possible.
