Special Effects

List of special effects we will need to research, consult Hooi Ling and study :

- Explosions - With Variations, from the mushroom to vehicle explosions
- Liquid for Liquid A & for U92 fishbowl
- nCloth(?) - for Denver's Pockets
- Smoke - after effect of nuclear & pollution from factories.
- Electricity - Power plant scene if we still have it & Liquid A's background
- Debris / Dirt(Blastcode) - This is for the after explosion, and also a nice touch to have here and there.
- Fog
- Strong dusty wind thingie, usually occur when an explosion takes place. Amir mentioned this, only thing I could suggest is using planar planes with textured wind / dust.
- Glass, oh yes, glass, cracking. Yes, cracking. o.o
- Glow - For U92
- Flying Ranina ranina.(Google it if you don't know : D)

P/S : If I forgot to list anything else please inform so I can re-update.

Voice Actors
Denver voiced by SpeedJolt is facing problems with the lines for Denver. He suggested that we get on skype to listen to him voice act. Wen San has just asked when he'll be free for this meeting, so will further update later.

No news from other voice talents.


End of Update.
Thanks.
Shon.
