Luxion Launches KeyShot 3D Rendering and Animation Competition
Luxion is excited to announce the launch of the 2012 3D Rendering and Animation Competition. This rendering contest is launched on the cusp of the release of KeyShot 3.2 with two seats of KeyShot Pro including Animation going to the entry for Best Rendering and Best Animation.
The KeyShot rendering competition is a chance for KeyShot users, and those interested in using KeyShot, to compete among each other, displaying their ability to create stunning compositions using KeyShot.
