WINGS: Flights of Courage Trailer

A short trailer for the motion simulator ride film I'm wrapping up.

Network Rendering Issue with Modo 801

I've been having this issue for a while, 5 Macs on a Thunderbolt network (tried with Ethernet LAN also): master and slave machines render differently.

More Stills from Wings: Flights of Courage

Mostly done with MODO, with additional lighting in After Effects and Motion.
