Isotropix releases Mac edition of Clarisse iFX
Isotropix has released a Mac version of Clarisse iFX. Windows and Linux versions of the next-generation hybrid 2D/3D application shipped last December.
Somewhere between 3D renderer, 2D compositor and animation package, Clarisse iFX is designed to enable artists to develop complex, detail-heavy production scenes while interacting continually with the final image.
Isotropix claims that it as “reinvents the traditional approach of creating final images”. You can read more about what Clarisse iFX is and how it works in our original, longer story.
