"Artificial Intelligence is a new and very exciting way of manipulating motion, for the last 10 years we have been putting key-frames, but I think there is a huge new field in front of us now with animation, on a higher level." -Jordi Bares, 3D Supervisor, The Mill
| "Massive is a very helpful tool and, with the way schedules and budgets are going, Massive capabilities are definitely an advantage." -Kim Wildenburg, Producer, Method Studios |
"I wanted to make sure we had the firepower to show the sheer number of ants. We had tons of crowd scenes that you could never have animated by hand. If we did, we'd still be working on the film five years from now." -John A. Davis, Writer & Director, The Ant Bully
| "With the help of the Ready-to-Run Agent Library I was able to easily complete 5 shots in just 1 week. The efficiency and ease of Massive is changing the way we animate." -Phil Hartmann, Massive Supervisor

“In our Bud spot, I showed the client placement and overall motion of the crowd in Massive, and instantly made adjustments based on the client’s direction. Advertising agencies are actually storyboarding and notating shots as ‘Massive scenes’.” -Craig 'X-Ray' Halperin, Image Movers Digital | "We were looking for an off-the-shelf solution we could drop into our pipeline. Our Golden Gate crowd scenes called for numerous characters and we weren't planning on doing a motion capture session. Massive provided a good set of pre-built agents with motion capture actions and the ability to have them respond in their own ways to their surroundings." -Craig Lyn, Visual Effects Supervisor, Framestore CFC |
