1. Hugh Laurie as Dr Gregory House

- Part 1, 360 turnable presentation, full modeling, texturing and rendering, using Lightwave 3D and Softimage|XSI
- Rigged and animatable
- Part 2, Walking test with cane, for demonstrating cloth simulations on blue shirt, suit and trousers, using Syflex in Softimage|XSI
- Part 3, Close up, emphasis on fast skin shader (SSS), hair modeling and shading, and geometry displacement (Zbrush maps) With facial morphing test for animation, and showing the synchronization of the skin layer and the facial hair layers, like eyebrows and beards.

Animation/effects:

- Originally the animation is an entry for the VFS-Youtube Scholarship Competition 2008 – “What Matters to You”, later renamed the animation as “A Simple Leaving Story”.
- Dick Ma worked as a Director and he is responsible for the whole part of animation productions.
- Full modeling, texturing using Lightwave 3D and rendering using Softimage|XSI, emphasis on using Toon-shader and Ink tracer for the styling.
- All sceneries are build up in 3D and rendered as 2D toon, with post-production effects.
- Beautiful transition effects from one scene to another scene.
- Various animations on the main character and the cat.
