Eldorado
September 22nd, 2009
After a while I’ve finally finished my new personal project called “Eldorado”. The soil was originally made for a commercial print but the client refused this version asking for less violent soil and so on and so on… We all know how these clients/studio stuff work. I kept the soil scene and decided to use it for my own project since I liked it pretty much. I added lots of extra features like grass strands, roots, leaves and other small bits here and there. At the beginning I wasn’t really sure what will be the hero of the shot. I was thinking about tennis ball, golf ball, pack of cigarettes, bottle etc. but at the and one little toy car won.
Digital Art Masters Vol.3 - Free Chapter Making of Hektor
July 6th, 2009
Folks at FocalPress and 3dtotal.com decided to make chapter I wrote for Digital Art Masters Vol.3 - Making of Hektor free to download. So I #8217;m not really sure if it #8217;s that good or that bad but since I #8217;m thinking from time to time I would say it #8217;s kind of promotional move so to be humble it has to be really amazing chapter. Well ok, end of jokes #8230; Here is the link to download the chapter (Enjoy it!) and here you can buy Digital Art Masters vol.3 book. I have all 3 volumes of DAM in my library and I can say it #8217;s really nice reading! Besides #8230; my 2 years old son loves it even more.

Buggy series
May 5th, 2008
I #8217;ve recently finished my latest personal project. It is one of those bigger and I started to work on it in January 2008. It was shortly after I’ve seen Mad Max trilogy again. I love those fallout vehicles in the movie and I remember like I loved them when I was just a kid so I’ve decided to make at least my own one. I spent on it parts of my free time (about two to three weeks) during 4 months.
Softbank commercial
April 20th, 2008
I spent over 5 weeks at Blur studio in Los Angeles working on commercial directed by David Fincher. Project supervisor was Kevin Margo from Blur. I worked together with Peter Sanitra. Our task was basically everything starting from modeling, lighting, rendering, rotoscoping to compositing. We did computer generated branches on the trees, flying cars, sparks, existing logos replacements, motion blur reconstruction, basically everything what is flying in the air. We used 3dsmax and Vray for 3d job and Fusion 5 for compositing. Tracking was done in SynthEyes by Matt Merkovich. We had a great time in LA. Thanks to all at Blur, its a great place!
So finally commercial is online so I #8217;m proud to show it, click here to watch.

What took you so long!?
July 8th, 2007
I #8217;m happy that after months of working on a lot of professional projects eating all of my lifetime I found some time and I started, worked and I finished next personal artwork again. I call it #8220;What took you so long?! #8221; and it is environment inspired by one of Pragues districts where I #8217;m living and working now.
Name of the street on the plank is kind of ironic #8220;Osloboditelov #8221; which is in Slovak language and it means in English #8220;Liberators #8221;. Picture is dedicated to my wife and my colleagues from imagesFX.

Sunrise of the 80 #8217;s
January 16th, 2007
After the end of the year 2006, I had more free time to spend than usual so I started to work on my new personal project. I call it “Sunrise of the 80’s”. It took me about 3 weeks of work, mainly during the nights and creative moments of the short winter days and long winter nights. In the beginning it was planned as night street scene but during one week of playing with lighting and testing I reached sunrise once again like in my previous work “Street of memories“. I hope that people who know these kind of housing estates sceneries will agree with me that they have a particular charm. Thanks to all folks for supporting and helping me with good critique and to my wife for patience. I hope you like it.
