 AutoCAD 2010: Autodesk Takes 3D Design and Documentation to Next LevelAutodesk announced the release of AutoCAD 2010 software, one of the world's leading design and documentation platforms.The latest release of AutoCAD introduces groundbreaking new capabilities to help users tackle their most challenging design problems, including free-form design tools, parametric drawing and enhanced PDF support, a top request from Autodesk User Group International (AUGI) members. AutoCAD 2010 provides even more power and innovation to help users document, communicate, explore and customize design ideas. With new free-form design tools, users can more easily explore ideas in 3D models to create almost any shape they can imagine. New PDF import and underlay and enhanced publishing features can improve two-way communication with the extended design team. In addition, the introduction of constraint-based parametric drawing tools enables users to define persistent relationships between objects, accelerating crucial design revision workflows. AutoCAD 2010 now also supports 3D printing, which makes it easy to produce physical 3D models and physical prototypes by connecting to on-demand 3D printing services or personal 3D printers. more www.aut...

 Tronic Studio Explores the Fabric of Skin in Film for Diesel's 55DSL BrandWhen 55DSL commissioned Tronic Studio to produce a short film to open its fall fashion show in Italy, and flagship store exhibition, they got a surprising glimpse into a future where "Your skin is woven in mine.""Diesel is a very forward thinking, creative brand and we were essentially given an open brief; the only caveat being that we work with a checker pattern, which is a central design element of the latest 55DSL collection," said Vivian Rosenthal, who founded Tronic with Jesse Seppi. "Otherwise we were free to interpret the patterns any way we liked." Give Tronic its creative freedom and be prepared for something entirely different. "We decided to explore the idea that someday patterns might be woven or imprinted directly onto your skin," Rosenthal continued. "The film exploits the theoretical conceit that our skin is our personal clothing and that future fashions might be embedded patterns or mapped on particles." more Tronic Studio Explores the Fabric of Skin in Film for Diesel's 55DSL Brand design directory Tronic Studio > Animation Design Studios added by Levent OZLER |
 Trollback + Company Unveils Opening Sequence for TED2009Trollback + Company, an award-winning creative agency specializing in branding and motion graphics, has designed and produced the opening sequence for this year's TED conference, taking place between February 3 and 7 in Long Beach, CA.This marks the fourteenth collaboration between Trollback's founder Jakob Trollback and the annual "Technology, Entertainment, Design" conference, whose diverse and always prominent list of speakers this year includes Bill Gates, Oliver Sacks, statistician Nate Silver and singer/songwriter Regina Spektor, among others. Celebrating its 25th anniversary, TED2009's theme is The Great Unveiling, so called for the fact that each speaker this year will be premiering something new and fresh. Trollback + Company created a branding package-comprised of an opening sequence and speaker slates-that plays off the idea of unveiling while conveying each of the conference's 12 different themes with a symbolic movement particular to each. "For the anniversary it was great to make a piece that, although modern, paid tribute to the traditional typographic TED titles of the past," said Jakob Trollback, who spoke at TED in 2007. "This time the floating typography exists in a meta-universe, where the type of the sessions perform a little thematic choreography, whereafter they converge to form the main conference credo: The Great Unveiling." more Trollback + Company Unveils Opening Sequence for TED2009 design directory Trollbäck + Company > Multidisciplinary Design Studios added by Levent OZLER |
