Re: Getting started in VFX
Hey there! Always exciting to meet people interested in getting into VFX, there aren't enough of us around!

Im not sure if the chip is burnt or not yet, luckily my PC shut down right away... but either way for now, Im 'on-board' with an Intel GPU. Which is altogether hideous. Im wondering, I just baked a…
