We are excited to announce our GDC 2010 plans! See how Mixamo is disrupting the character animation process by attending our sponsored session or visiting our booth. Email us at contact@mixamo.com if you have any additional questions. See you there!

1. AAA-Quality Characters and Animations for Everyone

We are putting on a sponsored session with Evolver and FacePro - come check it out! Here are the details:

WHEN:
Thursday, March 11 from 1:30pm to 2:30pm (Room 302, South Hall)

SPEAKERS:
Jon Burns (Product Marketing Manager, Mixamo)
Brian Nilles (CEO, Evolver)
Rod Stafford (President, FacePro)

SESSION DESCRIPTION:
This session introduces attendees to the Accelerated Character Pipeline (ACP), developed in conjunction between Mixamo, Evolver, and FacePro to provide 3D game artists a faster, more cost-effective way to create AAA-quality character models and animations. Leveraging Evolver's character modeling, Mixamo's character animation, and FacePro's facial animation services in one optimized workflow, 3D artists can create higher-quality character models in motion than traditional processes would allow given the same budget and timeframe.

TAKEAWAYS:
Attendees will learn about each step of the ACP workflow through an interactive end-to-end demonstration of the technologies.

2. Find our booth at the Expo!

We will have a booth at the expo where we can demo Mixamo in action, answer your questions, and show off the growing number of customers using Mixamo. Here are the details:
