I heard you can't use more than 10% (?) but this is the most specific (and simple) info I could find. But generally, you cant (re-)use things or parts to sell products, and sources need to be clear,

Not too versed in the lingo either, but… just go for it. Popular vote shouldn’t always go before artistic value and expression and ability - or even just memory and a way of archiving? If all else fails - and you get the permission from those who made the content - just edit it and put some

Thanks for the positive words! Problem is that you'd obviously need the cooperation/consent of the content producers and their help figuring out what's recent enough. Greetz Leendert -- Leendert A. Hartog AKA Hirazi Blue Administrator NOT the owner of si-community.com

If this gets off the ground, we'd be happy to provide tons of material with AnimSchool's Malcolm rig, made in Softimage. Most people use it in Maya, but it was all authored in Softimage first and converted. On 9/24/2014 4:27 AM, Leendert A. Hartog wrote: Well, I'm not particularly versed

It's actually trivial for you or any individual not working for a studio to put together a video on youtube that's a collection of any clip you want. People do it all the time. Nearly impossible if you're part of the chain that had anything to do with any of the clips. On Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at

This is just like the Reels that AD / Avid used to do for Softimage. Companies would submit stuff then there was process for verifying rights and all that. It was handled by someone who was paid to do it. I don't see this happening if it's not through AD. And we can all assume they won't care

At least we don't necessarily need tons of material to make a catchy edit, but I think it's that I would have liked to have stuff in there that people could actually recognize or have some the greatest hits done in Softmage in a fan-made collection clip. On 09/24/14 13:46, Eric Thivierge

It would be easy to make an edit (with credits on each shot) from the "Great things made with Softimage" thread, softimage.tv and or the ICE vimeo page. You talked about more recent things, but it could also include some of the "classics" like some "wouldn't it
