Update of the Year
Wait a minute, that sounded as pretentious as the movie title The Tree of Life. I should probably just call it a yearly update instead. So, here it is.
After working on three games for three years at High Impact Games in Burbank, I'm now working on a PS3 Title at SuperBot Entertainment, a startup games studio in Culver City. Since the game's genre is new to me, I feel like I'm back into the student mode, which is soooooo refreshing!
If you're wondering what ever happened to the short, then so am I. It's as of now on hold, coz it became a bit ambitious for one person to fully work on it to see it finished. Now, who is not surprised?! If anyone is interested in collaborating on this one, shoot me an email at skadloori@gmail.com, and maybe it'll get made someday.
Also I'm thinking of sharing some of my old Norman mods, but not sure how relevant those will be, when there are so many feature quality rigs available for free! I'll put those up in a day or two.
Till then, Ciao!

Update on updates
For those who drop by this blog once in a while, I want you to know that I won't be posting any new stuff anytime soon, as I'm preparing to do a short, which I don't know will take how long! It could be 6 months, or a year, or forever like always. No idea. So, for time being, you can forget this blog exists, or you can subscribe for the RSS feed to remind you, in case I have some update for you guys!
Now, going into hibernation mode, 3....2....1....

Movie files are back!!
Thanks to Ratul Sarna, I got almost all the Quicktime files back which I had lost yesterday. I uploaded all the files now, so the blog is back to where it was. Awesome! Thanks Ratul!!
Website down
My bad! I just renewed my domain and hosting for my website from GoDaddy.com for 3 more years. It had a Auto-renewal thing ON which I didn't like. I navigated to the Renewal options, clicked on Cancel, and it cancelled my entire hosting account including the 3 years I purchased 5 minutes ago. Who puts a Cancel button, which actually cancels the account, in the Auto-Renewal section!!
Even though I called the GoDaddy guys right away, they were unable to help with the lost files. They told me there's a $150 fee for retrieval of files. No way I'm paying that! And when I asked them if I could atleast get the hosting account back without the files, they told me I had to purchase an additional 3 months to get it back!! Wow, they must have put the Customer Rip-off number in the Customer Service section too.
Now I have a new hosting account, again with GoDaddy, but my files are all gone! I'll try to find if I have any copies of them on my Computer and try to put them back as soon as I can. But I don't think I have any files from my old blog posts! I'll see what I can do.
So, if any of you have a website, just get a back-up guys! You never know which Cancel button cancels what! Or maybe I'm just a dumb guy and I didn't know about it!!

Modified Norman
I sometimes get emails with requests to share my modified Norman rigs. Though I'm not able to share the specific character rigs at the moment, I use a modifed Norman, with a body which I grabbed from another rig called Nart, as a base for my characters.You can download it by clicking HERE
Boss
I have nothing to say about this one. I just hope it turned out good, as I've absolutely no idea how it's looking. Drop a comment if you see something that's odd or sticks out. I'll try to address those sometime later.
