There are four CG artists in our team: Royal Ghost, Gamlet’s Mother Shadow, Briz, Oburets. In creation of the film we use mainly 3DS MAX. Also we create textures and sketches of the models.

Aim and lead time

It’s difficult thing to create a short film of high quality. If we take into account that the film is created in our free time it’s quite understandable that the work can be stretched out on a few years. Creating our film we are trying to reach the level of such a cool cinematics from games as: WarCraft 3, Resident Evil, Warhammer 40000. We like our work and get pleasure doing it. ;)

Royal Ghost (RGhost) : CG Artist/Founder

Before “Veda project” I had headed demogroup “DDt Ent.”, which I set up in 1995. There were six members in the group: two artists (include myself), two musicians and two coders. For five years the group succeeded in Russian demoscene. The most important for us was mega-demo “The Chase”, which has been most considerable project ever released on Russian demoscene. In 2001 it was transformed in a short animation film “The Chase” which is now presented on our site.
My basic work as CG artist in studio is creation and development of character Veda and creation 90% of animation.

Gamlet’s Mother Shadow (GMS) : CG Artist

“Comrade Spook! How goes estimation of my works? Maybe it is worth to send you some other my works?” And without a reply the author (GMS) sent me them ;). The letters of this kind I received in reply on my want ad, which I placed in some Russian forums. There were more-than 70 applicants awaiting to participate in the project, but only in letters and enormous amounts of works of GMS one could feel enthusiasm. It was main reason, why he was accepted in studio. And what’s especially pleasant his enthusiasm doesn’t die down through the years of teamwork.
GMS has been working on broad variety of models, which includes: weapons, vehicles, buildings and so on.

Briz : CG Artist

Complicated tricks in our short animation film Veda performs on motorcycle. We needed a specialist who could explain us details of engine and motorcycle driving. Unlike cars where engine is invisible motorcycle is much more difficult in 3D modeling. While creating animation of motorcycle I need to know how correctly to use transmissions and other special things. Briz not only knows all these details but excellently drives his own motorcycle. Motorcycle for Veda at which Briz has been working already makes good impression and undoubtedly will speed up our work over the film.
Also Briz plans together with me to create motorcycle ammunition (helm, back defense…) for Veda.
