>> CGW does not tailor articles to the advertisers. Adesk is the one that
decides to put ads in specific magazines and it does not influence the content
of the articles. <<
I am glad that CGW holds such a noble posture (no sarcasm intended). In my
town, it is hard for small businesses to get _any_ article in the press without
making an (ad) investment in the magazine/newspaper/whatever. I know this is
the case because I have been present for several of such deals and have even
made a few myself. Money has influence.
Quite honestly, I have no faith in the media these days. I take what they say
with a grain of salt. You may be right: perhaps there is no conspiracy against
3DS or PC animation. But how many 3DS productions have there been in the
Electronic Theatre at Siggraph? Why do some animators, including myself,
choose not to reveal the platform and software they use to their customers?
What started this thread?
Anyway, who cares? Lets just have some fun! 🙂
