He Is My Master: Karauchi Anna 03

he is my master cosplay - karauchi anna 03 from comiket 2010Contrary to Anna's own belief, Sawatari Izumi is not interested in having a relationship with another girl. Anna’s misconception was derived from Izumi’s relentless efforts to keep Anna away from their master, Nakabayashi Yoshitaka. Although she is the third girl to be hired as a maid, Anna cannot cook proper meals, which is the subject of many jokes in the series.

Beautiful cosplayer from Comiket 2010! I really love all the ruffles and details she put into this cosplay. Thanks again to Edward for sending this in!

Kuroshitsuji: Ciel Phantomhive 05

kuroshitsuji cosplay - ciel phantomhive 05 from comiket 2010Although usually appearing to be emotionless, Ciel occasionally expresses his concern for the well-being of those who are close to him. He sometimes portrays himself as a happy person especially when undercover, but soon returns to his true self. Ciel is highly reliant on Sebastian, his butler, and does not appear to interact with the other servants of the Phantomhive Household as often, although they are all devoted to him.

Beautiful cosplay! The attention to detail is stunning and I believe this an artwork from the series’ soundtrack or drama CD. Thanks to Kuro-chan for sending this!

evangelion: 2.0 you can (not) advance cosplay - makinami mari illustrious 03 from comiket 2010The beginning of the movie immediately reveals Makinami Mari Illustrious to be a pilot of the Provisional Evangelion Unit-05. She was sent to destroy the resuscitated skeleton of the Third Angel in its attack on NERV’s arctic Bethany Base. Mari was able to successfully defeat the Angel by self-destructing her unit,and ejecting at the last minute to avoid her own death.

I guess Evangelion’s 4-part theatrical remake really made an impact on the con goers this year. Thanks again for the contribution, Quince!

Unknown Entry 066

unknown cosplay 66 from comiket 2010So many great cosplays from Comiket this year… I don’t think I can keep up with my emails any more.

In any case! I’m wondering about this particular photo. The first character that came to mind was Tosaka Rin from Fate/Stay Night. I think she wore a maid uniform in Ataraxia or Zero, but I think her skirt was a lot longer in that series.

Anyone have a better idea? Thanks again to Bennihime for sending this!

Reviews Of The Top 3D Animation Software in the Industry












Information Technology (IT) scene is one of the areas which witnessed a radical development and quality leaps over the past years. Stimulated new discoveries and inventions in the field of developments in the field of computing. In view of what can be done by a computer at the present time, there are many programs that have been built to enable the best designers and animators to get around their functions in each design, animation and treatment of routine procedures in the animation.

In this piece take some time to review your plan of what we know from some of the top animation software in the areas of design and animation. Before going further we need to correct this misconception that computing technology replaces everything. This is not true and this is what you need to understand that as far as I'll deal with the computer and to facilitate a lot of work in the process of design and animation that does not throw away the fact that you need to have the basics in place and give yourself a good basis for further development.


What you need to do to determine the best animation software good for you to find what is the leader in the industry and how they built their reputation. One of the big names in animation software is Adobe Flash. This program is a pilot, especially in web applications. The program has achieved great success in areas such as computing, it has become a trend that computers should be facilities of Flash movies approval.

The transformation program loaded up front and this goes to show the reputation of this application. In 3D Studio Max is also the major programs that will be coming through the good you are in the animation and vocational education. What has brought this program to fame is the fact that used widely in the development of a video game.
The program was also used in the production of popular games such as Grand Theft Auto and GameCube This is the tip of the iceberg.

What will also note that this is the beginning of the program, but to leave their mark in the production of the film. What made this program a standout is the fact that the software has control of the tremendous dynamics and various shading and lighting, as well as realistic. If you want to carve a good career in animation has just begun with a simple program which will take you through the basics and then you can upgrade to the real stuff.

Unknown Entry 065

unknown cosplay 65 from comiket 2010This cosplayer's outfit is certainly unique. It reminds me of a captain’s uniform in the Gundam series and a futuristic French maid of some sort. Maybe the fan she’s carrying holds some kind of clue to her identity?

The illustration of a girl behind her looks scarily intimidating as well… Anyone have a good guess? Thanks to Wendy for sending this in!

Touhou Project: Hakurei Reimu 04

touhou project cosplay - hakurei reimu 04 from comiket 2010

One of the main characters of Touhou Project, Hakurei Reimu is easygoing, curious, and somewhat dutiful. She is the Shrine Maiden of Hakurei Shrine which probably explains why is is sympathetic towards many people. Reimu also tends to be overly optimistic, and her shrine has become a popular hangout for some of Gensokyo’s more interesting females.

Cute cosplayer! Certainly a rival for the previously featured Reimus. Thanks to Zero Haven for sending this!

The Future of 3D Animation - The Virtual World on Steroids and Life As Simulator







The future of the movement is nearly upon us, is where it becomes your own in the virtual world, interacting with characters and become one yourself. Let me explain, a few years ago I met a gentleman backy interesting in a café, Robert V. Reese, was named. Bob Lee expressed that he feels our experience of life was nothing more than a really good simulation, which puts us in the bodies of the organic experience of the Kingdom and the ground to test our resolve and strength of character in a variety of situations.

And went on to say that we interact with other simulation is the same. We talked for hours and theories seem somewhat far-fetched, although it did not go to a long scientific explanation of how this can work. He explained our progress of artificial intelligence, simulation, electronic games, as well as recent films such as Vanilla Sky, Matrix and Fight Club. We discussed the Ministry of Defense-centric, net Battlespaces where the goals came in the augmented reality and how you see the night and eye tracking systems of the human mind has become the eye and the mind interfaces with the world 4D silicon in the world where you can see below, after 360 degrees.

The models of space and time and mind. Brought In addition, so I other concepts that have helped in the conversation, and the concepts of NASA ten screen simulation of air traffic control, visions of science fiction author Ben Bova on the future of the planet Mars and space tourism and entertainment, and investment Bill Gate at Six Flags Magic Mountain and the DARPA research with the appointment of a human life study experiences and e-mail messages, movies, conversations and events from birth to death.

The debate continued in fact through the technologies of simulation driving trucks for the first responders. It was clear to me that even if the experience of life is not a simulation, and also with the technology is rapidly approaching, and certainly it can be. We also discussed the issues and one in the state of animation, where their bodies did not move but remained in the case of simulation of life, which had been chosen, and their bodies were turned and I saw a biometrically to prevent the universe; similar to the movie Coma.

We decided it might not be such a life as bad as you have chosen your dream or simulation, rather than face reality. The idea of another conversation that is interesting and this is the use of the collective rights of the minds of those who were currently in the simulation of their own. Since many of the areas of the brain can not be used will be hooked together at the quantum level and work to solve problems and to fully exercise while participating fully in other parts of the brain in the simulation. In fact we are determined to prolong dreamtime of the participant and we can extend their lives by borrowing and ten times is still some of the ability of the brain, while the putter body.

We are also supposed to be able to use the simulator in the brain during times of demonstrating their dream and take to the frequency of 1-5 Hz for healing, super body's immune and blood filtration and cleaning of ion treatment. At the same time, while working at low frequencies such as this mind that what we consider to extend the time. Can send, and others in the simulation of short visits to ask questions to the participants to learn how to simulate their lives are going, and interact with, and then submit a report on the results and possible futures, which pulled even on their brains.


When a person wakes up they will feel younger, in perfect health, be many years ahead in their actual lives, and then return to a society free of psychological problems, and health issues in the future. But those who volunteer for this? Perhaps even the ones who pay for this purpose. We offer condolences to anyone dying from a disease, a person can not handle, any person who felt that they were living in the wrong time, or any person really wants to experience life in the extreme. Is extreme pleasure, and adversity or challenge-seekers will be worthy candidates, as it would be great for the rehabilitation of offenders in the community or in prison because it would be the brain's ability to contribute to collective projects, important, and learn a new lesson, can be cured of their behavior and disruptive so on.

Ended our conversation abruptly as he noticed that he needed to get to the top of the airport catch the plane back to the UK, although I have not gotten his e-mail address for further dialogue to continue this dialogue, and perhaps to me passing it to may be just as good. I think in this regard for me.

Being a chef, he believes a chef’s hands are his most prized possession, and because of this belief, he uses only his kicks when fighting an opponent.  He is also very chivalrous and will never harm a woman even if it means his own death.

Awesome cosplay! It’s almost creepy how similar he is to Sanji. Thanks again to Chloe for sending this!

Traditionally, animation has always used to be done by hand. The most popular method adopted was to create a series of animated films, which were then combined into a movie. Another method was using physical models, which were placed in a specific place and the image was captured, the model was then moved and another photograph, and the process used to continue.

But it has conventionally been replaced by computer animation. Computer animation, which is part of computer graphics technology is the creation of moving images using computers. It is created by 3D and 2D computer graphics. Computer graphics is also referred to as' computer-generated imagery ". The image is displayed on the computer screen, which creates the illusion of movement and it is replaced by new images that differ slightly from the previous image. Sophisticated computer animation concerning the movement of the camera or objects in a more subtle way in which the laws of physics to achieve this goal.

Software

Computer animation may be created using computer animation software. Cinema 4D, Amorphium, Poser and Ray Dream Studio, are some examples of animation software. Many software options are available and prices vary depending on the complexity of programs.

Computer animators, artists are using high-tech tools to achieve their creative excellence, but the ultimate reason for them to achieve their creative vision.


Forms of Animation

There are different types of animation available in:

Scripting Systems was the first system to control the movement as a computer animator writes a script in the language of animation. One such scripting language is an actor Script Animation Language.

Proceedings of the animation (which defines the movement over time), using the law of physics to generate movement. For example, consider the motion, which is the result of other actions, as in the case of a sphere, which, if thrown toward the house, hits the concrete object and causes it to move in any direction.

presentation of the animation is a technique in which the object changes its shape during the animation. It is sub-divided into three categories - articulated object animation, soft object animation, and morphing.


the stochastic animation, which controls a group of objects such as fireworks and waterfalls.

the behavior of animation, where a group of objects behaves according to a fixed pattern, as indicated in the animator.

Computer generated animation is used in various different fields such as movies, television, videos, commercials, games, web page design and many other situations. Due to its wide range of applications, computer animation has seen the growth spurt in the last few years.

Viewers around the world, especially young people, which deliver extreme graphics and sound effects, which were introduced in TV programs, movies, as well as in commercials. Use a multimedia presentation is even more attractive and effective.

Unknown Entry 064

unknown cosplay 064 from comiket 2010See what I mean about school girl uniforms? This is the second unknown cosplay today, and I'm still as clueless as I was this morning!

I actually thought she was from Full Metal Panic! or maybe even Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu because of the overall color scheme. Now I’m not so sure because I think their uniforms had a red bow instead of the green tie she’s wearing.

I think her shoes are really cute though. Thanks to again to Viki for the contribution!

Baka to Test to Shokanju: Kirishima Shoko

unknown cosplay 63 from comiket 2010 - baka to test to shokanju cosplay - kirishima shokoI'm beginning to wish school girl cosplays had IDs to go with them.

Just who is this purple haired bishoujo with the black and red uniform? Knowing who the cosplayer is would almost be mission impossible as it goes with these large conventions, but hopefully someone will comment and reveal which character she’s cosplaying as.

Thanks to Sammie for sending this!

EDIT: Thanks to Reryu for commenting about which series this is from! I was able to do a bit of research and found she is Kirishima Shoko from Baka to Test to Shokanju! Thanks again, Reryu!
