Hello
Following this article
In the case of Glassworks, it was really just an unfortunate oversight
that they were not pre-briefed. We have personally contacted Alastair to
apologise. Last year we pre-briefed Glassworks on other strategic projects
and it was a simple error on our end that they were not on the list this

Hi Maurice
Maintaining the status quo is not going to be a recipe for success either for
ourselves
how does that not include Maya? That's the ultimate in status quo surely?

here is Autodesk's response
So they're saying that they want to push over new technology with Bifrost
and virtual production.
Bifrost ( correct me if I'm wrong ) is still in development and it wont be
ready for a while
Virtual production is a couple of years that is already used, and in order
to shoot live video together
it was really just an unfortunate oversight that they were not
pre-briefed.
as if all this was about lack of pre-breifing..

I liked this statement in the article constant creative innovation.
In the case of Autodesk, should be changed to
constant creative acquisition, stagnation and degradation.
Looking elsewhere, and this response has only solidified that decision.

That's not a response to the open letters. No word about how XSI is an

bifrost cannot be a replacement for Softimage.
One thing I would like to know :
Why is it not possible to buy SI after the fatal date (march 28 ?) ?

Honestly small shops and individuals are really a bit harder to make big
investments than bigger shops.
It is like.. if 100 licences are really like 20% of monthly income for big

It's people like us that are going to get hit the hardest, not the big
shops. Retraining whilst still trying to keep the work going through, is
going to be very very difficult, dare I say, almost impossible. But hey, we

That's not a response. That's just an another announcement.
It's really shame that Maurice only put excuses without mentioning a real
thing.
And what an ignorance. They approached other big Softimage studio to
consider Maya or Max from year ago bug Glasswork? because Glasswork might
be smaller
I think it would be insane that XSI users have anything with AD, after all
this. I know that many do not have choice but jump with Maya... I would
invest these two years to push developer of MODO, Houdini or Fabric than
give anything to AD.
