Have you stayed in contact with the rest of the team during the motion capture shoot?asked by [Uncredited]
TL;DRRoberts says the company is already built for distributed development, so during the shoot he stayed in touch through fast connections, video conferences and email, working very long days, and some team members visited.
[86-minute special with Ben Lesnick - Summary Transcript]– CIG are already built to be a distributed development company. Teams in Austin, Santa Monica, Frankfurt, Manchester, then outsourcers in Montreal, Denver, etc... They already deal with being separated by time and space. Everything is already online, and they use Shotgun to pass things back and forth. When Chris went to shoot in Eyling, they set up a fast connection for him.– Shooting days were from 8-6, then he'd do video conferences with the UK and Germany, and with the U.S. Lots of e-mails, lots of online comments, all of CR's waking time for the shoot and the weekends was either directing the shoot or managing the project. Part of the reason Chris didn't do much community stuff, he was swamped. 16-17 hour days.– Also brought people down to the shoot, lots of the UK guys came down and some U.S. folks went over as well.– Ben tried to search for how many e-mails Chris has had in the past 3 months on Outlook. It broke the search.
