\N2\P2\C2\LN\LF\CT\F6\C3STAR OF TOMORROW\C2\LF\LN\LF\F1\FU\C1\BFRAW\NM will each issue pick out a very promising dude on the scene and name him " STAR OF TOMORROW ".\LF\LF This first time we choosed Sauron / Static Bytes. We picked him out because of these nice works he has done:\LF\LF \C2- 1.place in the gfx compo at Gathering __92.\LF \C2- 2.place in the gfx compo at Hurricane __party.\LF \C2- Some very neat graphics/design in the __Equinox demo " Hydrocephalus".\LF\LF \C1All this in the year 1992. We in RAW are sure that Sauron/Static Bytes is a name to look out for in the future.\LF\LF We hope this award will inspire those who get it, so we can see even more work from them.\LF\LF If you know about a very talented dude that is not so much known, don't hesitate to contact RAW.\LF\LF Now let's go on to hear what Sauron have to say:\LF\LF \F2\C3You have been awarded RAW'S "STAR TOMORROW" What do you think about it?\LF\LF \C2First of all I'm very grateful for it. It is the first attention I get from any part of the scene, and as I'm not too active in the demo scene I am also quite surprised! Thanks! It's a good idea, by the way!\LF\LF \C3You have done it extremely well this year. Have this success motivated you to keep it going?\LF\LF \C2Yes, very much indeed. After I won the compo at "The Gathering" I contacted the Danish company Interactvision as I suddenly got some more faith in myself after the surprising placing.\LF\LF \C3You quit Equinox and gave Static Bytes a go. Is it because you moved to Denmark, or?\LF\LF \C2Yes, I had and still have good contact with the other members of Equinox Norway. But as I moved to Danmark I'd rather join a local group (although I haven't had as much contact with the rest of STB as I'd like to)\LF\LF \C3Static Bytes is the new authors of well known Eurochart. Will you do some graphics for the Eurochart?\LF\LF \C2YUPS! I made the gfx for the Nov 92 editon. It was supposed to be used in the the previous edition, but I fucked up the deadline.\LF\LF \C3As many groups is of need of good graphicians/designers, you will be nice target for the BIG groups. What will you say if Anarchy or Silents got in for you?\LF\LF \C2Hrm, Well I have been asked by some groups (SCX, Andromeda and some others), but none of them were located near Silkeborg and I got to know the guys in STB quite good, So.... I'd still say No!\LF\LF \C3You won the Gathering 92 Graphic competition with the picture Beauty and the Best. Do you think it's IMPOSSIBLE to win graphics competitions without drawing a naked girl?\LF\LF \C2No, But it's helps!!!!!!\LF\LF \C3Iridon / Shining says that horses are impossible to draw decent, do you agree? Are there certain things you think is difficult to draw?\LF\LF \C2They are not impossible, just difficult. Forests seen at long distance are difficult, I hate them!\LF\LF \C3What is so fascinating by drawing pictures ?\LF\LF \C2Being creative, and to see yourself improve!\LF\LF \C3Who do you think is the most under-rated graphician in the scene?\LF\LF \C2It's HOF. No doubt!\LF\LF \C3- Best picture:\LF\LF \C2Uno's 2nd place-picture for the compo at a Dexion X-mas party. A cute dragon in a desert\LF\LF \C3- Best logo:\LF\LF \C2J.O.E.'s TRSI logo. It's made of RED-HOT METAL and looks marvellous\LF\LF \C3- Best designed demo:\LF\LF \C2Hardwired\LF \C3- How would you compare Facet/Anarchy vs. Uno/Scoopex?\LF\LF \C2Facet has a more personal style than Uno. Uno draws everything perfect. I like Facet's style a bit better.\LF\LF \C3We know you are drawing pictures for a company in Denmark. Could you please tell us some of your projects.\LF\LF \C2Mc-game for Psygnosis, Pinball for Infogrammes, Heli-sim + civ.sim from Infogrammes. After that in SAR-seach and rescue sim from Electronic Arts + other games.\LF\LF \C3Do you think that you can improve your drawings even more?\LF\LF \C2Of course. I know that if I could redraw my old drawings they would be better. When you stop improving there is not much point in drawing anymore.\LF\LF \C3Have you ever tried anything else than graphics? (E.G. coding , music...)\LF\LF \C2I have tried both coding and music, but no serious attempts. I did some swapping until I realized that graphics was a lot funnier!\LF\LF \C3Last Words?\LF\LF \C2Thanks a lot! BUY QUALITY SOFTWARE The amiga is getting killed by console! If anyone for any reason shuld want to contact me write:\LF\LF ATT: Sigurd N.Kristiansen\LF INTERACTVISION\LF Norreskon Bakke 14\LF 8600 SILKEBORG\LF Denmark\LF\LF \C3At the end RAW wish Sauron / Static Bytes all the Best in the future.\LF\LF \F7In Next edition there will be a new "Star Tomorrow" award.\XX
