Anime Genesis Podcast Teaches How To Make Anime
Date: 8/22/2006
Studio ArtFX today announced the release of Anime Genesis: How to Turn Your Anime Dreams Into Reality, a new podcast series that will continue in the Studio ArtFX tradition of showing how it was done. As a series created using the latest digital media tools, Anime Genesis, or ANIGEN for short, can bring users up to date information on the state of independent animation and the tools that continue to allow artists to create studio quality work without the need for millions of dollars or major studio backing. The show can be found on the web at (www.studioartfx.com) or in the iTunes podcast library where viewers can subscribe to the RSS feed and get regular updates when episodes are released. Focused on showing users the latest uses of some of the hottest new off-the-shelf tools on market, like Vue 5 Infinite, Sketchup Pro 5, modo 202 and Lightwave 3D, ANIGEN is set to help content creators everywhere maximize their visual art dreams. Far from only dwelling in the 3D world, though, ANIGEN will also cover the latest tools in the world of digital, paperless 2D animation, like Bauhaus Software's Mirage Studio Pro, and delve into drawing for manga, doujinshi, visual novels and comics. "I've always been committed to showing users how to get their visual art projects done," explains Terrence Walker, founder of Studio ArtFX. "Since the release of my previous works, the world of digital content creation has changed dramatically. New tools like Vue 5 Infinite or the Mirage Nomad have altered the way I create entirely. This series is going to take users far beyond anything I've done in the past." The ANIGEN podcast series is available entirely free to viewers on the Studio ArtFX website or in the iTunes music library. The series will begin with weekly episode releases with plans to make the jump to biweekly releases by the close of the year.
