This is part two of an ongoing series dedicated to my favorite tools/workflows.  This time I cover Max2AE by Boomerlabs, an amazing plugin for 3DS Max that allows you to bring cameras, lights, planes, and even particles from Max to After Effects.   It rules.  Go here to get your copy of Max2AE.

Fusion CI Makes Liquid Breakthrough

splashtwist

Fusion CI has figured out a way to emulate thin sheet liquids without the telltale swissh cheese breakup that plagues most cg liquids.  This means that soon we could be doing beauty liquid shots that were once only possible with high speed photography and liquid wranglers.  Scary stuff.

Fusion CI has not said whether or not they will be releasing this commercially.  They could be holding out and only offering it up as a service but, hopefully they will package and sell it.

check it out here.
