A few things:
1) I am a generalist, but have good modeling skills and lighting/rendering
skills.
I am also a Nuke user, and could help composite.
2) Happy to also lend my story for the "Life afterXSI" doc of being a
longtime Maya user, who co-authored the first book about Maya
http://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Maya-Complete-Perry-Harovas/dp/0782125212
back in 1999, but chose to switch to Softimage. Now, being forced to chose
between moving back to Maya or moving on, I am going to move on (unless we
can save Soft!)
to a new uncharted software app. Which won't be easy considering I am 46
yrs. old and have 24 years of all types of software floating around in
amongst the cobwebs in my head!
3) Dan Pejril and I are actually right across the hall from each other, and
can at least lend some consistency to our part, whatever that part is,
since we are physically in the same location.
4) We are located on the a East Coast, and it might be a good idea to get
our time zones on that spreadsheet, so we know when people are available as
well as what they are able to contribute.
5) I have a bunch of students who started learning both Maya and Softimage
only 3 months ago (having never used any 3D software before) and were
REALLY upset when they heard
that they would possibly be forced to use Maya. They all said how much
Softimage was more of an Artist tool, cleaner, more stable, better
organized, more flexible, easier to understand, etc.
Perhaps their POV might be valuable for the "Life after XSI" thing?
