Stephen and Guillaume were inspiring Autodesk staff, and I feel certain I will continue to be inspired by them both in the future wherever life takes them.
Autodesk certainly hasn't impressed me with this move, or in general over the last few years. But despite my griping I'm still bullish on Softimage and have high hopes for the guys in Singapore. We'll see what comes, and if the software has legs to thrive despite foolish AD decision making. If not, as others point out there is a lot of potential competition brewing. If I had to make a guess about the state of things 5-6 years from now I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of us weren't using multiple smaller packages as opposed to an all in one solution like we do now, perhaps custom tools made by TDs for each studio, using something like fabric. That's not a bad future to contemplate. On Aug 31, 2012, at 4:10 PM, Alan Fregtman <[email protected]> wrote: > Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?! Laforge too?? Sad day. :( > > I will greatly miss you both.
