“Since the birth of digital art in 1984, I have used and taught over 30 digital applications. Maxon Computer is hands down the most efficient software provider I have had the pleasure to work with. The powerful and elegant software design is supported by unsurpassed customer service. After teaching Cinema for several years, I am amazed at how quickly students are able to master software with so many features and make the “creative leap” using digital tools. Maxon and the lively user base continually add to the awesome digital toolbox with exciting products like BodyPaint and a super-cool array of plug-ins! I especially love BodyPaint because it makes it so easy to put painting and drawing to work in the 3D world in an intuitive way.”
