Today I was looking through my old notes and found something special I wanted to share.
I can't believe I saw this Vimeo video more than 2 years ago. It feels like yesterday - one of those experiences you remember where you were.
My friends reacted the same way. It was a boost of energy which pushed some to become virtual worlds content creators, many others to work on related technologies.
If you haven't seen it yet, find a few minutes - it worth it. Watch to the end.
To my surprise, I just realized that we haven't heard about the filmmaker, Bruice Branit, again. And I have been following everything related to virtual reality very closely. So what happened to the creator of the iconic World Builder?
After a bit of digging...
Apparently the industry was as impressed by his talent as we were. Here is a short fun show-off video summarizing the praises dated 2 years ago. Wonderful!
Looks like Bruice chose to capitalize on his success by focusing on making special visual effects for Hollywood filmmakers.
According to this fresh interview to Kansas City Star he has demanding bosses who "expect a lot". Well, I am sure he delivers!
By the way, what is going on in Kansas City? I know quite a few artists who had moved there lately from California and New York. They say they love it there, they say they are very happy and ... then we never hear from them again.
And Bruice obviously loves Kansas - cheap, no traffic, free parking, etc Plus Google is going to install there super cool fiber optic cables and turn everybody else into snails.
Overall I am happy for Bruice. It is always a good news when a wonderful artist actually finds a financial success.
However, I am a bit surprised they didn't even mention the World Builder in the interview. I wonder if the reporter knows that Bruice can make not only special effects but short movies powerful enough to make thousands of people reach for something new.
Most importantly, I hope Bruice, himself, remembers he can. And I hope one day those superfast Kansas cables will be busy passing to the world another inspiration.
Because once a builder, always a builder.
