The winner can compete in 200th.
He/she will not select the topic.
It's looking like it'll be a week long.

Just like every topic, interpret it as many ways possible. Only Dream Theater the band would be too limited (though it's a possibility).

I might be able to put something together, although it's not really my style.

Place holder.

EDIT: Aagh! I'm [flabbergasted/dissapointed/amused] that I was not able to make an entry in time, because I was [kidnapped by gypsies/busy with other things/overcome with sense of apathy]. However, I look forward to [competing in the 200th challenge/practicing my juggling act/watching a porno] next week.

That's interesting. Driving home today I was listening to some older Dream Theater and I was thinking that there was some good imagery in the music. Not trying to limit the topic, like you guys were saying... just a strange coincidence.

I was planning on skipping this one but I just saw Cars and now I can't leave my machine. <Placeholder for a non-music related dream theater bit>

I had PLENTY of extra time this weekend. I took "Dream Theater" and flipped it around a little bit. A device that can output what your dreaming into a PC monitor........ Hence "Dream Theater"



There's still some things i can tweak and add, but i got kinda bored with it. I've been Blendering for the past 5 hours........ Anyway, This is a PURE entry, the only thing not pure is the border and title made in GIMP.

A boy's dream job!
This scene shows a boy dreaming about his dream job (hence his eyes are closed)



Modelled in Blender 2.41, about 5 hours to make and 54 mins to render. I also added a little blur to the seats in photoshop.

This is a newer version to my last image which has a white cloudlike effect on the outside and extra blur on the charactors to help with the dream theme. done in photoshop

NOTE: If this is classed as to much post-processing then please don't count it. (sorry for the confusion I'm new to this and not totaly under stand the pure/open thing)
