The first meeting of NEDAG on May 26th was pretty cool… With about 50 or so industry pros in attendance, Gustavo had an attentive and interactive audience. His presentation on his design workflow with Rhino, Modo and T-Splines was superb, and being able to pass around his prototyped goggles was like show and tell. Nice. Thanks again to Ezra Cove @ Mt. Ida for the location and Great Eastern for the food & drink. Join the mailing list for info on our next meeting – games focused, probably early September…
Great Eastern will be an exhibitor, with Steve Rodriguez demoing ZBrush, the Cintiq and maybe more… come by and say “hello” if you are going to be there.
