Costly. So, you were at DD for a while, Scott is an old friend of mine from the SF Bay area days. Can't remember the lead compositor's name - used to be at CIS - his business card read "visionaut". Never did get a chance to play with Nuke, but did like Shake - even though it seems to be going the all Apple way. Are they having problems selling that package?

I was at Digital Domain for a total of 8 years, so my package of choice is NUKE (www.d2software.com) Back in 94', we tested Cineon, but weren't too crazy about having to run the monitors 'hot'. It was very expensive per seat and the senior artists thought we could do a better job, writing our own. I ran FLAME for a few years, but got out of it, because I didn't like working in commercials. I've also used Shake, which is pretty good, although I think it's second to Nuke. > > The trailer problems could be the rush to get comps for the trailer. > Never > enough time.
