The first non-refundable deposit must be in by May 1. The second payment must be made in the month of June. The final tuition balance must be settled by July 7, 2010. The Comix Academy is brand new, but it addresses an old question: "How do I make it better?" From comics storytelling to concept art, fantasy illustration to storyboards, digital imagery to oil painting--learning, growing and improving are the watchwords of serious professionals and students. The Comix Academy exists to help any who love to create pictures and/or tell stories improve and polish their current work. We only have six days, so Comix Academy students will be expected to hit the ground running; professionals will present their work and/or methods through talks and demonstrations and students will show their current portfolios to faculty members. Then the fun begins. The serious student learns best by DOING--taking direction, problem-solving, implementing new techniques. Therefore, students will be expected to polish and refine existing work and/or create new presentation pieces while attending. Through interaction with working professionals, seeing what they do and how they do it, Comix Academy students will leave more informed and inspired than when they arrived. They will develop camaraderie with their fellow students, gain "the inside scoop" about the industry through their mentors, and find the confidence to go forth and make their dream projects a reality.

| Digital Storytelling 2010: Visual Effects - Into New Dimensions is coming back to Oslo Posted: 23 Mar 2010 09:17 PM PDT
 According to CGtalk The Digital Storytelling three day conference is the fifth annual seminar on the creative use of technology in film and television, focusing on visual effects and digital set design in feature film and television. Speakers from the Norwegian, Scandinavian and International film community will gather in Oslo to present their work. The program begins Wednesday April 14. Digital Storytelling and The Norwegian Film Institute invite VFX artists, producers, directors and writers to this year's seminar and workshop on the use of visual effects in film and television. The impact of the blockbuster movie 'Avatar' on the filmmaking process and the movie-going experience can hardly go unnoticed. In order to keep pace with the cutting edge developments of the industry, the focus of this year's seminar and workshop is the phenomenon of stereoscopic 3D. The keynote speaker, Oscar winner and Co-Production Designer on 'Avatar', Robert Stromberg sets the stage for a journey into this new and exciting universe. The theme stays on Pandora with presentations by Theodor Groeneboom (Framestore, London) and Canadian Colin Doncaster (Weta, New Zealand and Storm Studios, Norway) both having contributed their VFX talents to 'Avatar'. Swedish director Ted Kjellsson challenges conventional filmmaking with his new film project 'Tompta' (produced by ZentropeRamBuk, Denmark). 3D Cinematographer & Filmmaker Kasimir Lehto (Los Angeles) will talk on how 3D should be treated and used in a narrative context to support the storytelling and cinematic expression.

| World’s First Water-Cooling Solution for Fermi GPUs Posted: 23 Mar 2010 09:02 PM PDT
 NVIDIA's new generation graphics cards based on Fermi architecture are coming pretty soon, and Inno3D has prepared a water-cooling solution for it. From en.expreview.com we can see some photos and informations : "Perhaps you've noticed that the waterblock already made a debut at CeBIT 2010, but we was unaware then it's designed for Fermi.   As you can see, the water-cooling system is much smaller than the company's GTX295 iChill Black Edition.  Though we don't have accurate information yet about the power consumption of the next-generation GPU, we're quite sure that it would be power hungry, especially considering it has up to 3 billion transistors, which is 40% more than ATI Radeon HD 5870."
