PREVIEW REALLUSION iCLONE 6 PRO IS AWESOME SYNAPSE CIRCUIT

 SYNAPSE CIRCUIT
PREVIEW:
REALLUSION iCLONE 6 PRO IS AWESOME

Goodhour, Synapse Circuit Readers! I hope that you are well and that you had a great day! And if your day is still unravelling then there is time...

This morning I got up brighter and earlier than I normally do to see meet the wonderful people behind RealLusion... Read on...

#Reallusion #iClone6 #3DAnimation

ONE EXCELLENT REASON TO PURCHASE A WINDOWS COMPUTER!

I can give you a few more reasons however today what I saw was just jaw dropping amazing...


London, UK (March 12th, 2015) I met with John Martin VP Product Marketing and another RealLusion representative from Taiwan. Apologies for forgetting his name... After what I saw I could be forgiven for forgetting my own name!



I don’t want to bore you with technical details other than to tell you the following... Now pay attention...

Cost effective 3D animation and stills has really and truly arrived in the form of iClone 6 Pro. What I saw today was just mind blowing... Yeah, I know... .My mind was blown the last time I saw iClone (version 5) as no other software house is doing what they are doing.  I had wanted to get in to 3D almost a decade ago and when I researched the prices for courses in industry leading software I had to bow out with a whimper! I took up video production, graphic and web design instead; the rest is history as it took me to Germany and Holland where I had careers multimedia / new media production. However, I also wondered what could have happened had I gotten to do the course in 3D animation. Whenever I’m in a magazine / bookshop I have to glance at the stunning 3D graphic design / artwork in awe. If you, like me, feel so inclined towards 3D animation and stills then I can honestly tell you that manna has come down from 3D Heaven. This is what you have been waiting for! This is what I have been waiting for! I feel another digital vice coming on (no smut please)! Lol!

MAYA?
Yes, you may! Oooh, that was painful but I am telling you right now that the learning curve for iClone 6 Pro is going to be less painful!

iClone 6 Pro (there is a standard version that I did not see) has been reworked to produce the kind of results that you can expect from leading industry standard 3D software that can cost anything over £3K! These courses can cost more than the software! iClone 6 Pro is listed at £159.99! I have to verify this when it comes to the review! The review is coming!

BE EXCITED... BE VERY EXCITED...



No! I am not referring to that risqué 50 shades movie but the amount of options that is within the software and the wealth of video tutorials available. So, you don’t have worry about finding an obscene amount of money for a course in iClone and you certainly don’t have to worry about the cost of the program!

I left the demonstration a little dazed and confused... I must have looked like a buffoon smiling to myself on the streets! Lol! It didn’t dawn on me to take pictures... Jeez! After viewing what others have done with iClone 6 Pro... Gosh, almighty!

A review is coming soon... And in the meantime...
