There is just something about having a music track that makes a presentation just a bit more special.  I’m sure that some of you would like a different song selection.  The song (credits in the video) makes it feel a bit like a sports video.  What do you think?

This was a first for me…the opportunity to interview a 3D game character.  Okay, it was really Juan, but he personifies himself as a Space Marine.

Juan del Rio is one of our Community Managers here at 3DVIA.  Juan is an expert in the world of 3D, like so many on the 3DVIA team.  This short video gives you a glimpse of the amazing Juan – part man, part machine.

I will be interviewing other members over the next few months…Don and Emmy, you’re next…

More great material has rolled in from this years very successful GDC 2009 for 3DVIA.  Here is an excellent video covering how Little Chicken game company produced the Subsurface demo game in 60 days with a team of only 6!  Subsurface is the evaluation and demo game produced with 3DVIA Virtools.

The camera guy and source for the video is our very own Virgile.

Check out more from Kenneth Wong over at Desktop Engineering or on Twitter.

In short, Photoshop Extended allows graphic designers to incorporate 3D content directly into their 2D designs.  This gives you the ability to optimize the position and lighting of an element in your design on the fly.  Photoshop accepts .3ds, .obj and .dae files among other formats readily available for free right here on 3DVIA.com. 

If you do not have Photoshop, why not try a similar functionality in our own free 3Dcollage?  All you need is a Facebook account and the 3Dcollage app.  You can read all about it here.
