Hi,

 This is Revathi Pradeep, the  business developer and  media in charge for
the team introduced below.

 Mr. Shankar is working as a systems manager for a 3D Animation and Gaming
house in India.  Being tuned daily to BBB project, an idea struck him
which sowed a seed into this project which our team has initiated in mid
2008 and which has got into shape to this stage now…

He has been following BLENDER site and open movies, Games and now the Durian
project which he is eagerly keeping track on with the updates. He had first
heard about your site from a close friend of ours in 2006. It is a truly
amazing and appreciative effort, especially, bringing Blender to this
level.


We are also planning to do our project as the open movie using mostly open
source tools. But at present we have decided not to release any working
files on open source Format. He has conceptualized the project and also the
Project realization.                              .



*About the Project…*

It has been the Global recession and lack of funds which made us to plan
out our production in a unique way.  We are planning to develop a short
movie on the same lines as of Blender open movie but ONLINE we would like to
use Internet as our Platform. This will help us to engage & involve the
Blender community taking it to a new level of experience and bring new
dimensions to Blender software as the name suggests. We would like to blend
a  lot of creative minds and bring in the best output.  We would like it
mainly to be developed on Blender. The other open source software &
knowledge of MAYA, Photoshop, Fusion, and Shake are also of great
advantage..


.
Supported by Blender community involving & engaging of professionals and
amateur artists of all ages, locations and areas.

More info can be see from the site http://iysys.org/studioO/

Please let us know for any more info to be shared.


We are in touch with Mr. Ton Roosendaal and we are very thankful to him, who
in spite of his busy schedule is helping and guiding us through mails.


 *Our  expectations from you all...
  *

You all are experienced in Animation industry and also some have been part
of some Blender open movies. Your experience is invaluable to us for such a
project.

 We are well aware that most of you would already be pre engaged and
committed to your ongoing projects,We are sure that many of you work as
freelancers. but this might bring interest in you as you don’t need to
relocate yourself or discontinue your ongoing projects for this…


 We would be  very much interested to involve the experienced blender user
at every area (Technical, project pipeline,scripts,Bug fixing & production
wise)  for such a complex project we don’t see anybody better than you all
who are experienced and have already involved some open movie for
creation of a small team Like open movie projects Consisting of (10 Artist &
2 developers)..

1. We would like to have a team of Volunteers (dedicated and self
 committed ),  multi-talented personalities with a wide range of skills  in
several areas like Blender open movie projects, selected from Blender
community. They would be having the best possible creative freedom in
creating it.                                                 .

2. Support & Guidance from Blender team,community at every stage.


3. Mr. Ton’s  experience  and  guidance is  invaluable  to  us  especially
 because of  past  movie experience...

4.Everyone joining this group would be working  as Volunteers during the
early stages, but could receive share from any profits received...

At present we cannot commit on the payment part at present  as  this is our
 first  project to be attempted on such a unique way and the funds we have
got are as of now only for the project resources and we would commercialize
the product at some stage to raise money to benefit for the hard efforts put
by the team.


 As we know (Ton & Blender Institute) are now completely engaged with DURIAN
Project, we are expecting help from him in  guiding us at every stage. In
addition to that we are approaching you all. We have also posted a formal
request for *Call for participation* just like done for Durian on blender
community for choosing the team and right kind of approach & guidance
(Technical & production wise) and specialist support like yours is required
from time to time..


 This is our first project and that too an attempt on a unique Platform. Our
existing team of 3 is well experienced in commercial production using Maya &
other commercial tools and are still working in some of the reputed studios
in India & Asia..

We are planning to start our pre-sales only after reaching Animation stage
as we will have some shape to project to attract more users...

We are very optimistic on realizing this project, if not all some of you
might be interested to be part of such a challenging amazing project such as
this and hope to hear a positive reply from you soon to work together...

 If you are not interested in this project but can find potential and
suitable  person to be part of this  from your contacts/network, please do
forward this to them and we would be thankful to you for doing so…

Revathi Pradeep.
