November meeting summary and next event

Hi all,

Thanks to everyone who came along last night, it was a great turn out, we even had to find extra chairs to fit everyone in, so that was excellent.

Special thanks to Jamie and Paul for their presentations and Digital Tutors for their raffle prizes of a couple of 1 month subscriptions to their online training library (I'll be in touch with the winners shortly). Lee Phillips from Bluegfx was also on hand to answer questions.

After 4 events in Cardiff, we'll finally be heading to Bristol for our next group get together. Date and location to be confirmed but provisionally we're looking at late February / early March.

If anyone has ideas for presentations they may feel would be interesting to the group please drop me an email at colin.hanford@arup.com and we'll sort something out.

So thanks again for coming along, have a great Christmas break and we'll catch up in the new year.

Cheers,
Colin

Hi all,

Our next meeting will held on Wednesday 26th November, again at the Cardiff office of consultant engineers Arup (4 Pierhead Street, Cardiff Bay, CF10 4QP), from 7pm - 11pm.

Please email me at colin.hanford@arup.com if you are interested in coming along so I can get an idea of the numbers.

Our main speaker will be Jamie Gwilliam from Autodesk.

"with lots of key announcements around Autodesks latest extensions for their animation products, including 3ds Max. This brief session will feature a round up of the news as well as a look at some of their recent acquisitions, including 'Shotgun' the established cloud based pipeline management tool, and how it helps everyone involved in production. As well as their recent games engine announcements.

As always, it offers a chance to ask any burning questions directly to Autodesk!"


Paul Grimston from Excitech, will be presenting about how BIM is evolving and what that means for modelling and visualisation.
 
 
Online creative and tech training company Digital Tutors are generously giving away some raffle prizes at the meeting as well.



Please feel free to bring your own visualisation content to show at the meeting, we'll make sure everyone who wants to showcase their work gets some time.

Cheers,
