"I've been working a long time now in the CG Industry doing 3D animation, and special effects. When I look back at those years, I just can't hide how lucky I feel to have had the privilege of working with some of the most talented people on the planet, who unsurprisingly, have ended up being CG supervisors of world leading studios today. However, I still remember the time when we were struggling trying to get the most out of commercial packages to improve our images. I still remember how frustrating it was to devise complex workarounds to get things done, both in quality and in time. Why? Simply because the tools were not there, and sadly, years later, they are still not there... We've always wondered why, until someone came up with a brilliant analogy: who on earth would ask to an engineer who has never driven a car to draw and design one? That was it, the issue was in fact simple. Indeed, as it's quite easy to learn how to drive to get a license, yet, it's very difficult to learn how to create industry standard images: first, it requires at least an ounce of talent, and second, years of training. Instead of being consumed by frustration, here at Isotropix, we've spent the last few years working on this issue and we are now really proud to come up with a solution finally supporting the way images should be created. Embodied in our Clarisse product family , its new approach and its technology frees production artists and plugin developers from the same technical limitations I've shared when I was working in production. From now on, the next few years will be really exciting. Every day we come up with tons of new ideas on new workflow that'll ease users' lives and offer new creative possibilities."
