Further Details on where to meet to hang out at the end of the day.
I wish I was able to attend this year. I’ve had a lot of fun the last couple years at siggraph meeting lots of people from the blender community and from across the industry. very fun!
and Tim, I look forward to your posts and hopefully some video to from this years BOF and show floor!
Paul,
Sorry you can’t make it this year hopefully we catch up at next year’s conference in New Orleans.
I really hope video coverage is good this year. Last year, BN becoming “official” also somehow meant less coverage.
I will be a siggraph this year(first time!) so I hope to attend.
Bmud, so you are telling me that six separate interviews and a tour of the exhibit hall wasn’t enough coverage?
I will be at SIGGRAPH with my laptop and if time allows showing some models used for presenting taxtiles animated or still.
Also I am working on a museum project using blender to build the whole building as well as the exhibition spaces, including the art installation.
See you then
