“Meline” is the name of the young girl created for a short animated film Sebastien Laban and Virginie Goyons are working on in their spare time. Started back in late 2006, the film’s release date is still unknown, but from the looks of the pictures below, the wait is well worth it. I highly suggest visiting the Project Meline blog for more pictures, videos, information and project updates!

Sebastien Laban is an impressive individual, having worked on projects such as the “Superman Returns” film and Eden Games’ “Alone in the Dark”. Also working on “Alone in the Dark,” Virginie Goyons is doing the modeling and texturing for Project Meline.

Muxicall is a web-based Flash project by Diana Antunes, a student at the University of Aveiro, Portugal, designed to “explore artistic concepts related to the phenomenon of collective composition & improvisation.” Users are given a selection of 3 instruments (Piano, Drums and Strings), a chat window and a “shared space of musical creation” - all the tools needed to create music however they see fit. I’ve sent an email to Ms.Antunes requesting more information about her project as well as any planned updates. If I receive a response, you all will be the first to know.
