Animator Quote of the Day

"The tool or technology is not what counts, it is the layered performance of the character who must elicit emotion from the audience and move the story forward. Good animation is all about acting."

~Pierre Perifel (Dreamworks Animator)

NAIAD Fluid Dynamics or Realflow


Game changer, maybe but realflow 2012 is looking good. Now if they only had a student rate.
