We’re very happy with the production quality and ease of working with you. The video summarizes the operation of a quite complex system very well.  We’ve got it linked on our website and routinely have it running at all our trade shows. The video even made it to a TV broadcast on a science show in Chile!  Thanks again. We’re looking forward to our next project.

“DreamLight Constellation has quickly made itself an indispensable part of my workflow and pipeline. With the SNUB Launcher I am able to fire up the render nodes and be ready to go in very little time. Combine that with Mike’s excellent customer service and communication, I am certain that DreamLight will be my go-to for years to come.”

Facebook Review

“I am pleased to recommend DreamLight Constellation for LightWave network rendering management. I found it easy to set up and Mike’s support is great!”

“Cross Platform network rendering has never been easier with DreamLight Constellation/DLI-SNUB-Launcher! When setting up complex scenes to render I count on DreamLight’s render tools to not get in the way especially when it’s 3am and all I want to do is press the render button.”

“Great work by Mike as usual. We provided him with a lot of technical information and he transformed it into something interesting and comprehensible.”

 About Time There Was a How-To Book on Animated Shorts!

“I don’t often write reviews, but this book, Creating a 3D Animated CGI Short: The Making is the Autition Archives – Fault Effect by Michael Scaramozzino, left me no alternative. First, there are very few books available to the independent filmmaker – especially when it comes to animation. This book by Mr. Scaramozzino fills a large void and is most definitely welcome. And second, it is a well-written detailed account of this project.

 The BEST book on creating shorts (and Indie Animation) with Lightwave.

“I own and have read a lot of books on various topics in computer animation, and this book is the most meticulous, practical and easy-to-follow resource I own for creating short films without a big team of employees. It appealed to me specifically because I needed a book that discusses using Lightwave 3D in an indie-scale pipeline. The book does that but also covers much more.

“We were very happy with the resulting animation.
The Animation was a HUGE hit. Thank you so much!”

“I really wished I’d filmed this… I’m already rendering !!! I literally got the license a few minutes ago …. that was the quickest time I’ve ever set up anything…

ScreamerNet has literally brought me to tears in the past – in the fetal position on the ground… I cannot believe how simple this was, how it gives you enough control to know what’s going on and shows you what it’s doing… wow..

“DreamLight Constellation is a really fantastic Lightwave Screamernet controller. It’s also really great to have one that works so well on Mac OS X. It’s fast and very easy to set up, and – most crucially – seems very reliable, even over my less-than-perfect office ethernet connections. I can’t recommend it highly enough. It’s very reasonably priced too, so you have no excuse now not to set up your own mini (or not so mini!) render farm.”

I don’t think there are many professionals who could cover an introduction to 3 different software applications, including LightWave, in such an effective way.

“Mike did an amazing job producing a high resolution rendering for use on our new 20′ trade show display.  We introduced a minor design setback halfway through the project, but Mike did a commendable job addressing our concerns and saw the job through to the end.  We made our deadline and the new 3D trade show graphics definitely contributed to the success of the show.  I would say that the best part about working with Mike is that he always made me feel like my project was a priority.  Not once did I ever feel like I was just one of his many customers.”

Dear Phil,

Again, I want to thank you and your staff for taking a fairly bland concept CD project and turning it into a vivid, high-impact marketing presentation. I appreciate how closely you and Barbara worked with me to understand my needs and desires and then effectively translate them into the dynamite resulting show.

Dear Phil,

I wanted to send you copies of our completed automotive brochure and thank you for making it so easy to get our illustration fine-tuned. You and Barbara were very patient as we kept asking for more and more changes but the result, in our minds, is one of the most targeted pieces of literature we have ever produced. All our salespeople love it and only regret that we didn’t have the piece in our sales arsenal earlier!

Certainly if we have future projects involving illustration, we will be coming back to DreamLight.

Very truly yours,

Dear Phil,

On behalf of everyone at Delphax I want to thank you for the great job DreamLight did in bringing the Output Factory™ to life. It’s an understatement to say that we couldn’t have done it without you.

“You made me look good on this project.”

Dear Michael:

Thank you very much for your work on the “Sunglasses” illustration. You went far beyond the call of duty not only in creating that image, but also in ensuring that it would work on our hardware. In everything from suggesting improvements to our original concept, through carefully creating a seamless image and then making last-minute changes to that image, to loaning us the appropriate hardware so we could transfer the drawing to the printer, you made sure that the job was done right.

Dear Mike:

I’d like to let you know in an “official” way how much I appreciate your hard work, dedication and talent on the recently completed “Bose Car” illustration.

When the concept for this campaign was approved I was faced with what seemed to be an insurmountable challenge… produce a photo-realistic image of a car that is unlike any car on the market today. An image that is absolutely unrecognizable to our target audience: the very knowledgeable automobile manufacturer. In other words, create an image that gives the impression that Bose has designed, manufactured and photographed an actual “Bose Car.”

We haven’t heard much from the laundry lately. They have been courting manufacturing partners and investors. The prototype laundromat with the interface graphics is still running in Salem; they have had very good customer acceptance. We get a call for service once in a blue moon.

Dear Mike and Eric,

I thought the UPC graphic looked terrific, and so did the boys at Goetz Custom Sailboats. The graphic is now on the hull of the last of the Americas Cup boats, and will be on its way to San Diego soon. We hope the press and sailors there will get a great surprise when they unwrap the boat.

Dear Mike:

We are very pleased with the automotive logo.

Overall, we were very pleased with your work.

Dear Mike:

Thanks very much for a job well done on the illustrations for the Sprague Energy brochure. At the outset, I anticipated great problems in converting intricate, technical site plans into clear and concise illustrations … let alone colorful ones that would complement the feeling of the brochure. I was also a bit concerned at the potential cost of such a venture.
