Lightworks Artisan
The latest version of Artisan will be demonstrated on the Lightworks
booth at SIGGRAPH. Lightworks Artisan provides focused rendering
solutions that can be simply integrated in OEM tools. The product is
designed to offer users pre-configured workflows and also allows the use of
‘drag, drop and render’ styles, simplifying the image creation process.
Also being previewed is the new Artisan Network Rendering option which
allows images created in Artisan to be rendered remotely and then uploaded
back onto the user's desktop once completed.
David Forrester, CEO of Lightworks commented: “Lightworks exhibited at
the inaugural SIGGRAPH Asia in Singapore in 2008 and we are delighted to be
supporting this year’s exhibition in Japan. This is the first time that
Lightworks has exhibited in Japan, and we are looking forward to this
opportunity of meeting directly with companies in this important marketplace
and to showing them some of the extremely exciting new developments that we
are introducing in this, our 20th anniversary year.”
