2d3 will be attending Siggraph in August and is looking for material for their showreel.

Do you have any footage that you have used boujou or bullet in and if so, would you be willing to contribute some footage to their showreel? The footage can be anything from commercials, film and TV to architectural visualizations, etc.

All footage they receive will be credited at the end of the reel. Siggraph provides a good opportunity to gain exposure to a vast community of developers, creators, educators and freelancers.

Their preferred formats for footage are Quicktime movie, AVI or frame sequence, but they can accept Beta SP/Digi Beta. Footage is needed as soon as possible with a deadline of around July 11th, 2008

If you have customers that would like to feature on our showreel please contact Elaine Ormes.

Alternatively you can mail footage to Elaine at the following address:

Attn: Elaine Ormes
2d3 Ltd
14 Minns Business Park
Westway
Oxford
OX2 0JB
UK

Footage can also be uploaded to their FTP site. Just email Elaine and she can send you the upload link details on request.

Available Now ...... more choice for professional matchmovers

Derived directly from boujou 4, silver bullet shares the same robust and accurate feature tracking and camera solving engines. silver bullet offers more functionality to more people than previous releases of bullet, while still providing the easy to learn, easy to use, single click, wizard based workflow of boujou bullet 2.

It also offers major enhancements over previous versions of bullet while maintaining the same levels of automation and ease of use. You can still solve most shots in a single mouse click. But now you also have advanced tools at your fingertips which allow you to solve a wider range of more difficult shots more easily.

While silver bullet has the same, complete import and export range as boujou 4, bullet SD is designed for those who don’t need HD support and have less demanding export requirements.

silver bullet: Regular price: $5,000.00, Toolfarm price: $4,750.00
boujou bullet sd: Regular price: $1,000.00, Toolfarm price: $950.00
