Gnomon approached me to work on another project for them. This time it’s a Student Reel for them to run during SIGGRAPH this year. I wanted to tackle this right away, but I have to say after I used Handbrake to rip the digital video off the DVDs of the students’ reels. It was really [...]

Steven Larson's Blog
Welcome to my personal blog, where I usually mention what I have done, events I have been to, stuff I have seen or possibly a thought or two. Its like my personal journal I keep for myself, but if you want to check it out, look at the pictures or watch my videos — feel free. My blog is mostly in a visual form with a little description tagged along with it, as I am not much of a writer.
Enjoy... though beware your about to enter the world of Steven Larson's Mind!
