Re: Softimage Creatives London - next event Nov 13th

Just wanted to congratulate all the organisers and presenters at the 
Event. It was a really good evening. Fabric's presentation helped 
clarify a lot of issues; Anna's gave a great insight into the creative 
workflow involved in making a short; and I liked The Mill's presentation 
- particularly the insight that the Flame Ops discarded most of their 
passes in favour of the beauty. Genius.


Following on from the nVidia presentation, we stayed up late last night 
and installed racks of pervy GPUs into our farm (I'm sure that's what he 
said!) and now we're all working from home. Cool.


Congratulations and thanks to everyone involved.
Julian

I hope I can visit the next event. Now that I'm a freelancer again I really
should be at these things :)

For us that couldn't be there I really hope someone can find the time and
write something about what have been shown.

best regards
stefan
