DESCARGAR DESDE AQUí

You can view the movie here.

Saiu na Internet saiu no motokando.com, mas esta conversa da nova Honda CG 150 Titan 2009 não dá para publicar aqui no site como sendo uma verdade absoluta. Confira na fotografia divulgada na internet, não será necessário analisar profundamente a imagem, a suspensão traseira é monoshock, caso a Honda lance mesmo a CG 150 Titan com esta suspensão irá concorrer diretamente com sua Honda CBX 250 Twister, ou seja, será uma motocicleta muito parecida com a Twister, com  rodas de liga leve, um motor de menor potência, maior econômia de conbustível menor preço e visual inovador, ou seja, vai disputar mercado com a twister.

Lançamentos de motos para 2009 - O mercado vai ferver!

So I'm fit enough to do my duty. After lifting rope bags above my head, rolling around the floor (like a grunting ballerina), having noises blown into my ears and being weighed amongst other things, I passed the HM Coastguard fitness check at 'Technician Level'. The nurse taking the fitness check was firm but fair and wasn't a red head, Wenley will be saddened to hear.

So in theory I'm fit enough to descend cliffs with stretchers, wade into flood water and walk around coastal areas for hours and hours. Getting out of my bed in the small hours of the night after doing a full day's work on shift is another thing however!

Due to work commitments I didn't manage to attend the CG rope rescue assessment with the team recently. The team passed the rigorous assessment and we were declared 'operational' with the new kit. On Saturday the lads had a cliff callout to Strathy Point and might have used the new gear for the first time? 

My ex-team is keeping very busy with callouts, having averaged almost a callout-a-day in the past 2 weeks. Keep up the good work lads.

一想到星期一要OT到8點就覺得人生沒了意義…

Enough to warrant the design of a simple, hierarchical classicifaction system?

Err ... sure, why not?

You may have noticed the absence of a category for crystal clear, non-hoaxed footage of extra-terrestrial spacecraft. I'm afraid that's because I've never seen any footage that would warrant the inclusion of such a category. Find me some and I'll update the system, otherwise I'm sure whatever you've seen could easily find its way into one of the pre-existing categories.

Here are some examples:

Type 1-Ai - 1, 2, 3,

Type 1-Aii - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,

Type 1-B - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,

Type 2-A - 1, 2, 3, 4,

Type 2-B - 1, 2,

I'll keep adding links until there are at least ten for each category. If you want to nominate any, just let me know and I'll do an update.

Now, I'm not saying spacecraft flown by extra-terrestrials have never been filmed by humans; only that I've never seen any conclusive footage. All the high-quality UFOs videos I've seen have been hoaxes or artwork.

Why are there no high-quality videos of the real thing? I know what Occam's Razor would have us conclude ... but that's no fun. I'd rather believe the government has seized all the best footage and kept secret our regular contact with extra-terrestrial civilisations. Bastards!

I'm probably coming across as skeptical to the point of being close-minded but I'm not. Honestly. I would love nothing more than to be provided with unassailable proof of the existence of advanced extra-terrestrial civilisations; it's because I'm so taken with the idea that I can't settle for lousy footage of some tiny, blurry shape in a distant cloud. Nor can I settle for eyewitness accounts because I have no way of knowing whether or not people are reliable / honest / capable of distinguishing between oil refineries and flying saucers. There's a huge difference between seeing something incredible with my own eyes and merely wanting to believe the testimony of an eyewitness.

The reason I brought this up is that I've decided to create CG footage of a UFO (or two) at the You Yangs. I'm going to make the entire video CG and strive for photorealism but I'm not going to try and pass it off as real. Mine will be Type 1-B footage; a project undertaken so that I can learn more about visual effects.

I'll post blog entries as I complete each stage of the project. Partly to keep you, my loyal reader, in the loop but mainly because I'd like to receive feedback and ideas throughout the video's development.

Sound good?

Realidadetotal "Emily" é a nova personagem para o foto realismo para video game e filmes, diz o criador dela, Image Metrics. Metodos já utilizados anteriormente para animação de faces é colocado pontos em uma face humana e observar o jeito que esses pontos se mexem, mas a Image Metrics analisa movimentos faciais em um nivel por pixel individual no video, até mesmo as subvariações minimas, assim mesmo como a pele se comporta ao redor do olho pode ser analisada.

Achei o movimento da boca ainda um pouco artificial porem muito avançado do que conhecemos como nossa "Eve" que apareceu a um tempo no fantastico.

Aunque cueste trabajo creerlo, la cara de la mujer del vídeo (Emily) no es real. Se ha creado a partir de un modelo en 3D y animado usando la técnica de Image Metrics que permite capturar y recrear el más pequeño detalle de una expresión facial.

Es bastante diferente a la técnica Motion Capture que se ha estado utilizando hasta ahora para animar personajes virtuales (Gollum en El Señor de los Anillos es un ejemplo). Con esta técnica no es necesario dibujar puntos en la superficie a animar (en este caso una cara) y seguir con un software especial los movimientos de estos puntos para imitar las expresiones y tampoco son necesarios sets de rodaje especiales. Solo con un vídeo el ordenador es capaz de capturar y reproducir la gesticulación del actor.

Al final del vídeo, sobre el minuto 1:30, podéis ver a la Emily real.

Seguro que alguno al ver el vídeo experimenta el conocido como efecto Valle Inexplicable.

Although it certainly conjures up some potentially naughty holodeck scenarios, what's cool about this as relates to voice work in the real world is that it opens up all sorts of possibilities for voice actors, especially those who can sound like other celebrities.

Extrapolating out this technology's usefulness to, say, 50 years in the future, it could be used now to build a library of Harrison Ford's facial expressions and subtleties, for example, which could then be used to create a CG copy of him, which could be used to make lackluster Indiana Jones sequels (ahem) for decades to come. All that would be needed at that point would be a very lucky actor who can perform Ford's voice well enough to marry to the CGI and, presto, movies with actors who aren't around anymore or who never even existed.

Even if that never comes to pass, this is still amazing tech.
