Re: Compositing app choice

Yes, i think The Same about the compositor in Blender. So nice and

Re: this is the end......

[Javier Vega (Elástico)]

Yes, this is the end, but I’m still using it in some projects when I need to 
work more fast and quickly. Anyway, the users of this list which software are 
using right now? Just curiosity. I know that you, Jordi Bares, are still using 
it. In my case, as a freelance, I switch it to Maya for some projects and I’m 
touching with a lot of satisfaction, Blender.

See you!

Re: Need your opinion to improve Maya Outliner/ Attribute Editor

[Javier Vega]

Well, for me the idea is that Outliner will the most close to the XSI Explorer, 
just that. The XSI Explorer is one of the most productive tools.

 It is not overstatement that SI explorer/outliner sister is best out

 Softimage scene explorer is one of main workhorses and not without reason 
 so be sure to see what was done there in any case.
 Not holding any fingers ofc but just an idea..
 There will always be comment make it like SI so that is completely

  quite popular here for that purpose.

 FYI chaos group is promoting a deal on Vray for freelancers in the US worth 
 looking at.
 
 Discussion... I wish Arnold was even available at any kind of reasonable cost 
 for freelancers. 
 
 The majority of the studios I encounter use one or the other and I am 
 noticing a trend where boutique
 studios which would like to use Arnold instead turn to Vray simply because of 
 the high cost. I'm sure 
 SolidAngle has their reasons but I note that ChaosGroup is making very 
 serious efforts to be
 competitive and has gained some traction with this kind of outreach. Vray is 
 quite a capable
 renderer which I've enjoyed using, I just wish the price difference didn't 
 become the basis for choosing
 between the two.
 
 All that aside, kudos to ChaosGroup for their efforts to support Softimage 
 and the freelance community!

 Hello there Tim
 
 I have nothing against the IT department, apparently, and from what i have

 this is only my second day on the job so lets take that with a pinch of

 contacting autodesk, given he being the head of IT should in theory have at 
 least some means of contacting them, to which he answer No I'm not going to 
 bother navigating there fucking website
 
 if you have used softimage in production you would doubtless realise that 
 one does not ease back so redely into maya. like using a hammer when you are 
 used to a scalpal i only ask for the right to use the tool i purchased is 
 this what it has come to? cause i think that if this is so you can all pack 
 in your notions that this package will endure.
 
 as for my resellers, i bought on the official autodesk webpage for EU and 
 ireland.
 
 I am an artist, my tool is softimage, i use it to model characters, and i 
 provide my own license, i should not have to be bulied into another widely

 This is not obtuse but boringly difficult to setup
 
 do you really think this is a valid excuse for a trained individual not to

 I have nothing against IT, but i just spent 6000 euro to relocate to belgium 
 for this compagny but since i had the temerity to but hope I could use the

 I am a young artist, this may not seem much to other people but to me its my

 Hi Sebastian,
 
 
 be glad you have IT. Please understand the legal consequences for the
 administrator when installing a software and making it available to
 use (via the network) to others than the registered user.
 
 By the book, it would indeed be neccessary to verify if this is a
 license that has to be restricted in access, e.g. even if it is a
 network license, it may only be legit to be used by the registered
 individual but should not be available to other users and therefor
 not show as a desktop link or in their start menu.
 
 This is not obtuse but boringly difficult to setup and maintain in
 a multi-person-multi-machine-pipeline and brings the risk of ending
 up with files either unacessible to many or even illegal to edit.
 
 I would think that your reseller should be able to provide proof of
 purchase or at least help you with the license transfer to the machine
 that will run the license server for the duration of that job.
 
 The documented license transfer to the new machine/MAC ID could be
 regarded as legit proof of purchase/usage. I would recommend asking
 your reseller for a temp license, thought.
 
 It would be easier to wrap the job without leaving the license behind.
 
 Long story short, that´s hoops you have to go through due to Autodesk´s
 licensing policy and it would most likely be seen as helpful if you would
 support your IT guys and client in a calm and pro-active manner.
 
 You could at least look into using Maya for the modeling, the asset will
 most likely have to be delivered flawlessly as a Maya scene file anyway.
 
 If you see benefits in using Softimage, make the benefit felt, especially
 if there are stupid licensing problems to start your job with...
 
 
 
 Cheers,

 You are correct. :-)
 
 This would be a good time to introduce Vince Baertsoen, VFX Supe here at The 
 Mill in NYC. He's the bearded fellow who appears at 1:25 in the video, and I 
 believe the main architect behind the feather system, along with David 
 Barosin.
 
 I've been working with Vince since the beginning of the year, a super nice 
 fellow who really should be more visible in the community, especially 
 considering The Mill here in NY are using ICE like crazy and are on the prowl 
 for talent.

 Hi all,
 
 I gave a presentation about emFluid on Tuesday at the SiC London event. It 
 was fun but also very noisy, making it difficult for anyone other than those 
 sat right next to me to see or hear what I was saying.
 
 So I made a Vimeo version of it which is much longer than the talk I gave

 forward.
