Highlighting on this webinar series, Abhishek Chandra, Co- Founder- Cgtantra, shared, “The motto of CGtantra has always been to create methods for people to learn and share. It could be forums, interview articles, seminars or workshops. It is tough sometimes for people to travel at a particular place from a distance and that’s where a webinar makes things much easier. People can attend the session from their own computers and interact with speakers as well. Shyam has always been sharing his artworks and tips on CGtantra forums. A webinar would give a platform for people to watch him work and learn a lot from his techniques. The topics he his covering is something which I think is a must learn for every artist weather he is doing Pre production or Modeling or Animation or Rigging.”
