At the booth, guest presenters – some of the world’s most inspired 3D creative professionals from leading production facilities and design studios – will reveal insights and share techniques on an array of 3D topics while demonstrating CINEMA 4D’s blazing-fast performance and workflow benefits on highly acclaimed film, television, motion design and texture painting projects.

Guest presenters currently scheduled to showcase work created with MAXON software include:
