LightWave Digest - EP 11 - Luis Lopes

Welcome to another episode of LightWave Digest... Episode 11!!!

Today we talk about the two live events that LightWave Digital have held... May The 4:th and the first Sneak Peak Saturday. We get into some of the new tools/features that are expected to ship with LightWave 2024.

The guest is no other than Luis Lopes from Nymus 3D, who has a degree in biochemistry. We talk about his relation to computers growing up and the importance of the Amiga as a stepping stone for creative people. We also talk about his career before and after joining Nymus 3D and his love for biochemistry and how that became important for his current position and many other fun things related to 3D. Luis is currently working at Nymus 3D as Scientific Animator/Science Supervisor.

Enjoy!
