Čeněk Štrichel's 2008 animation '''"Killer Tux ( Linux vs Windows )"''' is awesome, and it really inspired me to think about 3D animation as a possibility. I have emailed Čeněk to see if he might be interested on collaborating on the project, but have not yet received a reply. The I thought about how FOSS teams organize themselves to collaborate remotely online to build software application, and I thought it would be worth trying to take a similar approach to make an animation. Even though I don't have the capacity to learn 3D animation software myself at the moment, I do have lots of other useful skills I could bring to a creative team, so I decided to attempt to bring together a team to have a go at making a 3D animation. I thought the best starting point was to storyboard some ideas which could stimulate the creative process, but I am actually open to any ideas that will achieve our aims. |

Thanks for your interest
The Video Intro Segment Project is MOMA's first major project to be undertaken using remote collaboration. This page is an attempt to bring together the necessary information and online resources that will be necessary to enable people to collaborate on the project from wherever they are situated on the planet.
The aim of the Project
The aim of the Video Intro Segment Project is to create a short, catchy and impressive video segment that can be edited into the start of all the official MOMA videos in order to (1) identify them as MOMA videos, (2) to give a sense of what the Museum is, and (3) to convey a spirit of the place so that the viewer feels that they have arrived.
Some initial ideas
My first idea was to start with the stylized gallery image that adorns the landing page of this wiki, as I stared at it I thought of Tux the Linux mascot penguin, and how cool it would be to honor and promote Linux which I see as the foundation of the Free Open Source Software (FOSS) movement - something that is so dear to me hear and my politics - to me it epitomizes community empowerment in the digital age.
As I went on to research Tux I came acrooss the video below, have a look:
