NOVEMBER: Wacom Workflow
NOVEMBER: WACOM WORKFLOW Send it to a friend: http://dmala.eventbrite.com
Do you still use a mouse to draw in Photoshop? You may want to rethink that method. Come and see what kind of work these artists are doing when they switch out a linear switch for a dynamic craftsman's tool. Whether you're a fan of Wacom or have never heard of them, chances are that you'll know the software these artists use. From Apple iPad to ZBrush, and everything in between, November's meeting will be one you won't want to miss. ANWAR MADRIGAL / DESIGN & ILLUSTRATIONS
Anwar uses several several different applications - from Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to SketchbookPro and ZBrush. He'll come to show how he uses his Wacom Cintiq to create character illustrations. Fifteen years of experience in the design industry working on licensed apparel development. Having created tons of top selling t shirts for properties such as Transformers, WWE, Cartoon Network, Disney and Star Wars apparel. generating huge sales at major retailers such as Walmart, Target, JC Penney and Kohls. A major part of Anwar's creative arsenal is the ability to illustrate characters, creatures and environments. Anwar is also a demo illustrator and 3D sculptor for Wacom and has shown the advantages of Wacom products at San Diego Comic Con, Long Beach Comic Con and many other events. RYAN SUMMERS / IMAGINARY FORCES / "PERSON OF INTEREST"
Ryan Summers worked on Person Of Interest at Imaginary Forces. He likes animating in After Effects, drawing on his iPad, and spends way too much time on Twitter. He's twice as excited as anyone else that there will be more Star Wars movies to see in theaters. Person Of Interest was a high-profile but quick turnaround project. With 4 artists and less than 3 weeks, the team busted out opening titles that would be on air in less than 24 hours of hitting the render button in After Effects. Along the way there were some important lessons to be had. You can see some of Ryan's personal work on his website: http://www.oddernod.com

What makes him so crazy dangerous is that he can make tools that he needs to get the job done. This month, he'll come to talk to us about his work in several areas, including design, processing, programming, and how all of these things come together as a single workflow. Plexus has been a big favorite in motion design houses around town - and chances are that you've seen it and might be usring it already. But there are always things left to learn there. (Did you know that there's a Rowbyte C4D obj exporter for plexus or for Trapcode plugins (Trapcode Form).

Leveraging more than two decades of 3D graphics programming innovation, R14 delivers breakthrough performance including a new, fully integrated sculpting system, camera matching functionality, exchange plugins to two key applications – The Foundry NUKE and Adobe Photoshop Extended – and improved integration with Adobe After Effects. CHECK OUT CINEVERSITY LIVE (August 1) for more on the software CINEMA 4D Release 14 Highlights: The following is a brief overview of the over 200 productivity-boosting features in CINEMA 4D R14, available for both Mac OS X and Windows. Digital Sculpting: Dynamic sculpting tools give artists complete control to create finely detailed models. A powerful layer system offers maximum flexibility. Complex sculpted objects can be “baked” into displacement and normal maps applied to low-poly meshes for efficiency. Camera Enhancements: The Camera Calibrator offers an integrated solution to match 3D camera images to a 3D environment – ideal for architects and matte artists. The Motion Camera, Morph Camera and Camera Composition Helper quickly frame a 3D scene following well-established composition rules. The Camera Focus Picker allows users to interactively set focal distances. Integration: Seamless integration with The Foundry’s NUKE compositing application allows direct export to a NUKE project with multi-pass layers, including full support for OpenEXR and FBX files.
