If you think you’re able to create some great textures for a 3D movie, here’s your chance to get noticed ! This is, to my humble knowledge, the first time ever that producers are launching a public invitation to designers to participate in the texturizing of a movie. Nice evolution.
Orange is an animated film project in the making to be licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 license, made with Blender, open source software for 3D modeling, animation, rendering, post-production, interactive creation and playback.
The producers have put out a call for textures. If you’re a computer artist, accept the challenge. Rotten fish textures sound harder to me than grunge maps, but I’m no computer artist.
From the Orange blog:
Well, the translators have had their turn (and there will be more news on that later), but we’d also like to give the opportunity for more people to contribute. Part of us are now within the final materials/textures/rendering phase and are working on textures now ourselves. We had a nasty and unfortunate theft in the studio last week, and three of our cameras were stolen, so especially now, we could use some help with textures from outsiders – from gathering source material to final, lighting-corrected, tileable textures.
