Center for New Media Studies and Steve Wright are pleased to announce the addition of RFX as a Silver Sponsor to the growing list of sponsors for Steve Wright’s upcoming free webinar titled “What’s so Hot About Nuke?”
This free “how-to” webinar, scheduled for January 26, 2010 at 10 PST, will lift the hood of Nuke to reveal those unique features that make it the hot new power tool in the visual effects production pipeline.
“Nuke is moving the boundaries between the 2D and 3D departments so that more and more of the work is being done in the 2D department where it is faster and more cost effective.” stated Steve Wright, senior digital compositor, Nuke trainer, and the webinar presenter.
“In addition to the great content that Steve Wright will present, The Foundry will also be giving away one free Nuke license plus a year of support valued at $4500 during the webinar.” stated Marcelo Lewin, Founder and CEO of Center For New Media Studies, the producer of this webinar, “All of our sponsors have graciously donated many prizes to give away during this webinar and we are extremely thankful to all of them for doing so!”
“As part of our long standing relationship with The Foundry, RFX is committed to supporting compositors.”
To date, the sponsors for the webinar include The Foundry, Pipeline FX, Smith Micro, AJA, RFX, GenArts, Sony Creative Software, RE: Vision and Phyx Inc.
The list of giveaways at the webinar include a full Nuke license, PipelineFX Qube Package, 2 copies of Poser Pro, an AJA IO Express PC Interface, 2 copies of GenArts Sapphire plug-ins for Nuke, DE:Noise by RE:Vision Effects, Sony Vegas Pro 9, Sony SoundForge Pro 10, a copy of Phyx Keyer and Steve Wright’s two books on digital compositing.
