There are superb examples scattered all over. The problem is, they're
scattered all over. Perhaps we should start a thread for Maurice
featuring the best of the best so he has something to easily pick from.
I always think of this one
http://www.subaru-global.com/news2011n001100.html as one of the most
memorable.

i really think the MOST important way to build Softimage is getting

One area I would like to get feedback on is how do we get the right
things happening on facebook? Advertising is way beyond our budgets in
general and not very effective unless we have a very specific call to
action (e.g. upgrades), as a result most advertsing is driven by sales
promos. However I actually think there are better and more viral ways
of getting the word out. Recently we have been having more success
with SM. We have had a lot of success with our Softimage page (now at
over 20,000) as well as the Digital Media page
http://www.facebook.com/AutodeskDigitalMedia , which for the reasons
described here, is becoming a bit of a second Softimage home.

That's great to hear! I'd have to agree, SI is a fantastic and very
complete solution for small to mid size shops. Hopefully, there is
some targeted advertising in this area.

It's a fully featured, node-based compositor that's built right into
the app.
