What are some of blogs you follow?

Post by daydream » 01 Nov 2012, 20:41

Hello Si-community, just a 3D novice here.
I have started using Softimage not too long ago and
was wondering if the users here can recommend some blogs
related to SI, SI dev, game dev or the animation industry in general.

I have done some research but the result is unfruitful.
Here are some of the blogs I often visit.

Softimage Creative
Planet Softimage
XSI Support
Gamasutra
IndieGames

Thank you in advance.

Hey thank you csaez, Glen and Eric.
I have read through most of the blogs and enjoy a lot of them!
The information in there are invaluable and helpful.
I have definitely gained a lot more insight about the program and its capabilities.
Very glad I have made the choice to look into SI.
Thanks again, really appreciate the help!

For what it's worth, I've setup an automated newsletter that gathers softimage news from RSS feeds and twitter
