"About the project specs : Created on an Intel i7-990X hex core 24 GB RAM,
and and i7-920 quad core 12 GB RAM. It took about eight months to do the
animation. The models and character puppets have been a work in progress for
years prior though.
Autodesk Maya is used for the all 3d modeling,
animation, hair and cloth simulation. Z brush is used a bit for additional high
detail model sculpting of the characters. Mental Ray is used for rendering.
Adobe After Effects is where it's all composited and sequenced together. I've
done additional editing and audio track overlays with Sony Vegas. (For
questions regarding the sound design and music score creation, contact
Francois, his info is below) All these programs are great but you can do
similar stuff with similar software.
During this production, I didn't
always have access to both workstations so that is partly why it took a few
months longer than it should've to complete. Also I've been working full time
job while making this, and haven't had the time I'd like to put into it. I hope
to be able to take time off work for the next project and have it finished in
the summer some time."
