- Hey guys, thank you very very much. It was hard work but great fun to do this. And yes Gloom: you are absolutely right: Pro added so many new features to the engine that i was like a little child overexcited which "toy" to "play" first with. "And now this is possible and that and ..." :D The next time we do a demo I will do my best to be "grown up" - calm and focused to make it all of a piece. This will be the greatest challenge for me :D hope to see you soon. bp was soooo cool.

- Hey guys,
after doing some sports my mind is free again after a shitty day with the german telekom and a broken iphone.
Ok. Things are never as bad as they seem. We are all grown-up people and can talk about this in a calm way.
I dont think that the price for this application / the fee per year is high. I think its ok.
I would even pay a 50 bucks for it.
But, and this is the main point for me which gives me an unwell feeling:
I worked for several big TV shows and for some animated movies as a 3d and
gfx artist. But not I was the one who get the big money out of it but the businessmen inbetween.
I do gfx for a living as a artist and its really hard these days to get the right job
and most of all well payed. we all can experience this fact these days.
A lot of people come to me and say: "hey you are a good gfx artist - can you do
this or that for me ?" a tattoo, a airbrush concept for my car etc.
but if we come to talk about money theres the point where the separation between the weat from
the chaff begins. They want it mostly for free. I dont say i am the best gfx artist in the world. far from that. but they come to
me and like my work. so why shouldnt i get well-payed for my hard work ?
to get to the point:
If i´d be asked i´d like to do demos all day long. for a living. That would be my dreamjob.
no boundaries - no limits in taste, genre or message. just art !
The guys from dtv changed their hobby, their passion for the scene into their business.
But not with demos, art or content but with the publication of it.
Like all "businessmen" do these days.
My problem with all this is, that IF EVER a big sponsor or someone deeply interested in the scene comes up or "discovers" US, the scene
(NOT DTV) because of entering "itunesland" with this app to show the rest of the world what we are creating, what we are able to do, our skills, to show who we are. THEN i hope that the people who create demos like we do get a little peace of the cake and not only the people who are marketing it.
I am not thinking primarily about money. no. i am talking about respect, acceptance and recognition.
to get THE job, the gratification i am dreaming of.
Sorry, i simply had to many bad experiences with "businessmen" who are just using my stuff to make money from.
I made the experience that its often not the message or the meaning or the quality of something that counts but if something can be sold.
Remember bp2009 ? where we had high hopes on a BIG ! sponsor who let down the scene in the end for saving their own butts.
and bp was almost cancelled.
I dont want money for my demos/content. use it - share it - enjoy it - hate it - whatever.
BUT DTV: if IT happens (and i have high hopes in you - you guys are cool - good luck) that the scene suddenly
gets THAT splendid boost in publicity because of your app, that every coder every gfx or soundartist of us can really do
what he/she is made for - for a living. not creating shitty ringtones for mobile phones or crap thats sold as games for phones,
or content for stupid tv shows
THEN ! dtv don´t become like the sponsor we all know who let us down last year.
now is the time that we are supporting you. someday you can return the favour.
Because its not the app that will bring you there nor some businesskills or tactics but the content the scene is creating.
kind regards
Cosmic

- Yes, i totally agree with scamp, h2o and tobé. I know what dtv did for the scene for the last years. and these guys have my deepest respect for that. thank you. BUT if there is a non transparent way of making money with FREE ! content including MY content i created in my sparetime and not knowing what this money is used for i am going to inform dtv that my demos have to be removed from their servers. Apple on the other hand gives a SHIT bout my 1 year old iphone wich is broken and the warranty is exhausted now. the idea for your FREE app is great. I think there are other ways to get the money together like donations etc. keep it so or lose my content. greetings comicollie/nuance
