Just because milk is white doesn't mean that clouds are made of milk.

Joe was so great to work with, and he was able to get clearance for a *lot* of production images and *video*. So for anyone who has ever wanted to see more behind the scenes of how Terragen is integrated into some production workflows, this is a great set of articles!

I like that in the final product, a lot of effects, such as clouds and stuff I would write off look great. Goes to show what ambience can achieve and draw you away from or complement other stuff you may necessarily on its own do differently.

I found this article to be super inspiring. To see Terragen in action as a very important component in the shots was very impressive. Does anyone know if there are tutorials to shape the clouds like they did (in an illustrative manner) or work with the landscape in those very distinctive ways that really give the show an signature look?
