That would be “Mechanique du Coeur”, in production at the studio Walking the 
Dog.
Animation is ongoing, as well as lighting, comp, fx and whatnot.
I posted here a while ago for ICE FX people. (hint hint – perhaps there is 
still a spot open)

As for this thread - don’t throw away those Autodesk licenses just yet...

Subject: Re: MOMA - Modo for Maya

There is an animated movie, currently in production (at render stage in 
Bruxelles). Pipeline was Maya to Modo, Yes Modo seems not made to handle large 
scenes, but the guys are developping tools to handle that. So on in on it is 
coming.

  In a nutshell... Modo has a great renderer and Allen Hastings is the heart 
and soul of Luxology.  That said it's not a great heavy lifter , it doesn't 
handle large and complex scenes well and lacks a lot of the 
refining/optimization tools that it should have at this point.   

  I tried to use it in production but it was difficult and not enjoyable when 
time was of the essence and predictability and stability mattered.  As an asset 
creation and lookdev tool it is brilliant and flexible, just not in midsize to 
large pipelines.  It's a shame because the tech does so many other things well 
but is being hampered by the tools surrounding it. 

  Maybe the Foundry will have a positive influence in this area, I hope so 
because there a lot of great things about Modo and its renderer but it hasn't 
yet realized its full potential.  Let's see how 7 turns out.

    once modo has a proper api for it... probably. the amount of work jacobo is 
doing to make this work is staggering as is any renderer integration/plugin. i 
know, i tried to do it for thea render but realized how much time i put in was 
no where near what i was going to get back for it.  

    i couldn't find the moma to sitoa comparison, i saw a moma and mtoa (maya 
to arnold) comparison. i am surprised though, someone who has worked with 
arnold before (at zinkia on pocoyo) he should know mtoa integration might not 
represent arnold standalone in the best light. since he does have experience 
with arnold, i am also interested in his opinion of it versus arnold.
