Modo 401: Animation & Pre-Compositing
I think Luxology needs to literally swipe Messiah’s SETUP mode and expressions, XSI rigs and Maya deformer tools.
In Pre-Compositing…basically a render controller for scene management and render layers.
Use XSI render tree and Max’s new render Elements that will create mattes for each object at render time and not effecting any of the render times to do it.
