Sleeping Dragon

The short film Sleeping Dragon is co-founder Stefan Minning's side project and testing ground of sorts.

Many of our proprietary technologies are created specifically for this film and continue to be tested here first. For example, our PANDA renderer was developed to draw the fancy backgrounds in the Chinese ink style and the ideas for Normality and Celulight were born while working on Sleeping Dragon's protagonist, Tatsu, seen below.

All main assets for the film are completed. However, only a few shots have been animated so far, as other more important work usually keeps Stefan from working on this project.

We keep it around because many of the techniques devised for this film lend themselves well to our other projects and have become essential parts of our pipeline.
