Editorial
Welcome to Issue 26. This month we have an interview with The Light Works, based in Germany. They produce sci-fi renders and much more for the sci-fi TV and film industries. We hope the interview will give you an insight into the kinds of paths that can be followed once you’ve learnt that 3D package and are looking for somewhere to apply your knowledge and skills. We have backed this up with a piece about Janne Hellmann’s latest product visualisation project for Mechanik Watches. Janne talks about his processes and his workflow in producing stunning photo-real renders for customers to build their custom watches online. If you’ve ever struggled organising a project then this is well worth a read as Janne has some really helpful hints and tips!

Plus, this month you have your chance to win one of 5 free 12 month subscriptions to 3DCreative by taking part in our quick survey! You can join the survey here: 3DCreative Survey. Another great issue, if I do say so myself! Enjoy!! Ed.
