Dearest all,

I have such a HOT HOT news here!

CGsociety announced today the winners for CGCHALLENGE XXII, Uplift Universe

And, our Italian XSI Customers THE SHIFT, today WON FOR THE SECOND TIME the most prestigious prize, at this prestigious CGCHALLENGE!

What's so cool about that:

They won TWO WORLDWIDE CG CHALLENGE in 2 years, I'm too excited to check, but I think nobody else ever accomplished that
and

BOTH TIMES, THEY REALIZED EVERYTHING, (EVEN COMPOSITING in the FXtree)
100% in SOFTIMAGE|XSI !!!!

here's the feature

Enjoy!!!

And once again, CONGRATULATIONS to Gianfranco and Emiliano... In a country that is not precisely "the Mecca of hi-end CG features" like Italy, it's so inspiring to see people with so much passion and idealism triumphing like that! Wishing you thousands of these victories!

Thats cool. I can't get to their vid from my work pc, so I'll have to wait until I get home to check it out. Congrats to the guys that won :) I entered into the still image competition just for fun and didn't even get my characters finished because of life getting in the way. So just out of curiosity, XSI was giving away 6.5 essentials to the winners right? I wonder if they will get the free upgrade to 7.0 :D
