London, UK. August 6th, 2008 - There have been many
exciting developments at The Foundry during the last
twelve months, across all areas of the company's product
portfolio. Continuing development and support of Nuke,
the Academy Award winning compositing system, has necessitated
the addition of 15 staff, plus the company's expansion
into two additional floors at its Wardour Street HQ
in central London. Simultaneously, The Foundry team
is continually improving and refining the existing stable
of Academy Award winning visual effects and image-processing
plug-ins, and inventing new ones, in response to customer
feedback and industry demand. |
