Realtime Graphics at the Film Show

Getting into the Computer Animation Fesitival at Siggraph is a big deal. I have been involved with projects that made it in 3 times over the past 20 years - each time I held my breath while the clip played. I found it strange to be so nervous as the clips were pre-recorded and I must have watched them 50 times before.

Imagine the rush when the film show started with a special emphasis on realtime computer graphics, and the first example was. . .. Flower! Yeah! Way to go thatgamecompany! I have no idea how John Edwards managed to breathe while playing the game - live of course - on stage in front of thousands.
