What's going on at IxDream? This is the right place to get the infos.

[15. January 2005 2:54]
there are two new galleries now showing pics of my new neighbourhood.

[07. January 2005 15:01]
Uh, i'm so sick of excusing each time that i dont have time to update this site ;)
anyway.. it seems to be this way and it wont change. some important news anyway!
i founded a company together with a friend. its PiXABLE STUDIOS where he is the salesman and i'm the man behind the scenes. this site now is regulary updated with new stuff, movies and pictures. so i abandoned the iXDream projects gallery in favour of the PiXABLE one. you can watch some nice new stuff over there now. also i moved to france, for personal reasons... and i like it! so, at least some more pictures coming soon :)
stay tuned

Lots of work, no time to put it online... arg... but i'll try, promised :) One reason for my lack of time may be also my next short visit in Syria.
You can watch the pictures in the new photo gallery.

[20. January 2003 15:30]
After coming across of Robert Changs website, and his inspiring work,
i decided to add at least a small section of some photography of mine to the website.
you can have a peek at the photo galleries at some pictures i like.

[26. December 2003 17:01]
Added the Auric gallery to the website. Also changed the menu structure a bit so i have now more room for some character animations to add. so, watch out :)
beside this.. peaceful christmas to everyone

[13. December 2003 16:53]
Just completed a new project. Was a product presentation for an hearing aid company.
the gallery will go online shortly. beside my 3d job i just took a job as a photographer and so i document a local meeting of architects and masonary specialists.
and as the next projects are in the developement, it seems the xmas time isnt that silent and relaxing :)

[11. November 2003 17:17]
The all new Bugatti-Diamonds gallery went online. I was simply too busy to update my site regulary.
And the next two projects are already in the pipe....

[10. November 2003 16:51]
One month in Syria. What a time! I'm back again in Germany with lots of priceless impressions and experiences in my head and heart.

[13. June 2003 23:45]
hey, got unhurt over friday, 13th :) seriously, i thought about writing something useful into the pipeline after a pause. actually i'm doing character animation (cinematics) work for the upcoming x-files game for the x-box / ps2, so no updates are possible in the near future. i simply have no time.....

[26. April 2003 16:16]
looking through my server log files i just found out that i'm mentioned at
"3dgrafik.celebs.cz" as an inspiring artist. Thanks :)

After seeing my image "Dancer" on raph.com last year, Darren Brooker offered me to use it for his new book "Essential Cg Lighting Techniques".
Now, the book can be purchased at amazon. On page 60 I got full page without borders.
Thanks Darren.

[25. March 2003 15:13]

[7. February 2003 16:37]
As promised a new gallery updates comes along. Go for the character animation gallery for new footage.

[20. January 2003 01:59]
After a long break I update my site again. I had much to do with some smaller jobs and I taught 3dsmax beginner classes again.
Take a look at the compositing gallery, which is filled with new stuff. Next thing that will be online soon is some character animations.
I did some heavily research in character rigging and animation and I'm very pleased with the results.

[20. September 2002 22:31]
"Fade" -- Currently under heavy production, is my first personal short film project.
Together with some friends we'll get a stunning piece of film running. Here a sneak preview. All affinities with my dancer image are completely accidentally ;)

A new Gallery went online. The ESG-Project is successfully completed.

[18. August 2002 02:09]
A horrifying week lies behind us. A flood, never beeing so high, came over my lovely hometown Dresden (Saxony, Germany).
33.000 evacuated people, infrastuctural damage around 5 Billion Euro, unbelivable sorrow for the ones who lost everything.
The only thing i could do this week was filling up sandbags to figth against the water.
Now the river Elbe begins get down. From the all time high level (9.40 meters) more than 4.5x of the normal level (2 meters).
We will do everything to get the city up and running again.... however... I afraid we lost too much to get every scar away... Please, help the ones who have nothing left than mud and water in their houses.

A greater contract kept me bussy most of the recent time.
After nearly completion I hope i will find some spare time to work on personal projects and on the page :)

I just gave my first 3ds max classes.
Originally planned for the start at mid june, I had to replace an other teacher.
I'ts long time ago that I had to bring knowledge to my students. It's a nice variety to the production process.

[10. April 2002 2:41]
A new Gallery went online.
For Ostendorf and 2ndFace I produced SEVERAL minutes of a multi projection video.

I just found out that the Raph Gallery accepted my "Dancer" image.
This is a really great honor for me and yes, I'm really happy about that.

[1. February 2002 02:30]
Some greater Contracts will keep me busy trhought this month. So no essential updates are to be expect.

[14. January 2002 22:00]
3DCAFE accepted my "Dancer" image for the gallery. Nice for me, as the picture got the platinum award.

[8. January 2002 22:00]

Args, this hurts......
Hello,
After looking at your submission, we do not believe it is befitting the contest assignment or topic. Your image depicts an attic which is clearly not a Junkyard, because of its purpose being different from a real Junkyard. It is true that attics might contain throwaway objects that people put away, but their location and purpose serve single individuals, while Junkyards are well known as locations where anyone could put their abandonware or come and scavange for such.
Please in the future read the contest assignment more carefully and if you have any questions or concerns inquire ahead of time.
Thanks

I've just uploaded my contribution for the contest at 3dLuvr.com
I caught the deadline and hoping that the picture will make it trought the censors at 3dluvr team. :)

[9. December 2001]
After got familiar with spline modeling (gallery page 1 - boxer) I just took a real approach to organic box modeling.
Some nice tutorials and a day of pushing vertices, at least, lead to reasonable results.

Sneak preview at the eMesh section posted.

Take a look at the composing gallery (page 5).
It took me 4 days to fullfill my first freelance contract. (only 1 out of 3 clips posted)
It's pure composing (color correction, tracking, stabilizing, effects).
Thanks goes to Kristin for being a perfect model.

[28. November 2001]
Intersport Bründl Gallery just went online. Be patient while loading the movie, but, it's worth. ;-)

[25. November 2001]
To overcome the last month as an employer I choose to take part in the 3dLuvr contest.
This time under the title "Junkyard".
A nice idea and a challange in all aspects of creating such a piece of work.
I've got the picture inside my head, the only thing thats left is to render it :)
I hope to meet the deadline at 12/16/01.

[22. November 2001]
I canceled my employment with media project GmbH on 11/22/01.
The time to go seperate ways has come .
At 01/01/2002 I'll be a Freelancer. Yipiee
First contacts are established so I hope that I look into a bright future.

ciao & thanks for reading
