Project Peach blog starts
Posted in Production by TonHi everyone!
And here’s the start of the official portal for project Peach (Furry & Funny), where we will update everyone about our progress, discuss ideas, ask for feedback, and so on.
Information about how to cooperate online will be added here too, but probably not until after the pre-production workshop end of august.
Currently we’re mostly working on (and waiting for) the first incarnation of a script. This is a hidden process (to protect vulnerable creativity you know!), lead by a very inspired Sacha, and using the combined creative power of the Peach team.
We’ve also got offers in from many talented – but inexperienced like us – writers to help or to review scripts. Some of them we’ll contact later for a script review and feedback.
My plan is to seek at Siggraph an experienced 3d movie animator and director who’s available for script feedback, and for helping out with storyboards (or do a workshop here for it).
This time we’ll have a great & funny script before we start. Promised!

Good luck! I can’t wait to see the result. If the graphics are going to be as good as the little teaser on top, I’m sure you will have no trouble raising donations for this project. :-)

Fantastic website/blog/thing! It’s brilliant to see that Jan will be doing the music & sound again!!
Hope everything goes well. I’m sure Sacha is capable of creating a brilliant & funny concept!

Enrico Valenza RuleZ!!! Great team, great power. I hope all this effort will result in a tremendous Blender development this year (and a great movie, of course).

Getting some external feedback from an experienced animator/director sounds like a very good idea to me.
Good luck with the project!

I hope this isn’t a take off of the squirrel from Ice Age trying to get the acorns… If it’s not, cool, can’t wait to see it. If it is, the writers should come up with something original and start over, it’s just that the picture of the animal reaching for the peach looks just like the squirrel reaching for an acorn.
July 29th, 2007 at 8:46 am
Good luck. This should be a brilliant film :)
July 29th, 2007 at 10:57 am
I hope you match, double or triple the success of Elephants dream!
The 3D world magazine almost has Blender stuff every issue!

Just for the sake of clarity: the header graphic is just for fun. Chances are close to zero we use this for the movie.
July 29th, 2007 at 4:32 pm
Good luck with the project guys :)
Hope you have tons of fun while you are at it!

Good luck to all team members. Have good inspiration for the script. It is great that this blog has started. During Orange one it was very interesting to watch the progress and process.

This is great, I like the minimalistic look of the new site. One thing though: the site renders incorrectly in IE7. Safari/Firefox/Opera renders it fine.
Anyways, hope the project goes well!
July 30th, 2007 at 5:05 am
Thank god! I will be watching close to this one.
July 30th, 2007 at 9:38 am
Very cool!
I wish you all the best of luck and have a lot of fun with the project too!
Personally I’m really looking forward to see the fruits of the developement of Hair/Fur tools in Blender, that will be welcomed by Cute-Bald-Critters everywhere.
The trick would probably be *really* fast fur/particles so it can be used by single computers rather than relying on huge farms (which most people can’t afford anyway)…and make the particle engine support Duo/Quad-core’s for ultrafast operation.
Anyway – best of luck, and have fun!

i’d just like to say that I liked the openness of Elephants dream script, although it missed some of the conventions to make a thrilling/touchy story. I hope that something non-conventional and “more than PIXAR show” will also sneak in this project. :)
July 30th, 2007 at 7:02 pm
Great, ED seems like just yesterday…glad the header critter is not a final critter cuz the fur is disappointing. haha what am i thinking, this is gonna be GREAT super high quality stuff. Sacha…just that thought makes me smile, so its got to be good.
Just please let the community know when we can help. even if you completely discard ALL we do for a particular need, but it could be a good brainstorm for you guys. best of luck

ok something’s weird with the comment system. after I typed in the confirmation letters it said “your coment has been approved” but it STAYED THERE. I had to type peach.blender.org to get back. IE7 xp
July 30th, 2007 at 7:08 pm
ok apparently it was a one time thing to have to type the code, but still, hope other first timers wont get stuck at the “approved” page. that would be…unprofesional. If it was just my silly computer, then sorry for all this.

Congratulations!!!

It’s gonna be cool.. G’luck.. We are waiting for the result… :)

Well, judging from the picture on the banner of this site, this movie looks absolutely wicked! Love the style, and think it’s great to be doing something funny and cute.
Can’t wait to see your progress, and eventually the finished movie, because I get the feeling this will be even better than Elephants Dream.
Nice site by the way.
Good luck.

The first image looks great! I know you will do the best and do it your own original way!!! Good luck Ton and to your team. Greetings from Czech Republic.
Hi
August 1st, 2007 at 12:05 am
imagine that hairy animal that you can see in the header singing, dancing, joking… I am so sure that funny&furry fit´s perfect as some kind of subtitle!
I am sure you all do very well! Good luck @Ton and the others… If I could pre-order a dvd I would do it immediately!
Greetings from Munich, Germany!
