BALLISTIC PUBLISHING ANNOUNCES – ELEMENTAL 3 – The World’s Best Autodesk Art
Adelaide, South Australia – 17th JULY 2008
The ELEMENTAL series showcases the world’s best digital artwork created with
Autodesk software. ELEMENTAL 3 is packed with exciting imagery from Autodesk
customers with a strong emphasis on architectural and design visualization.
For the first time in an ELEMENTAL title – Autodesk Maya and Autodesk Mudbox
artwork are also included.
The ELEMENTAL series, created in partnership with Autodesk Inc, showcases
the world’s best art created with Autodesk 3D visualization and animation
software. ELEMENTAL 3 continues this partnership and expands the breadth of
the series across more genres and with greater focus on architectural
visualization and design (product and automotive).
“This book is a celebration of digital art. It’s the magic that happens when
great imaginations are paired with great technology. Like its predecessor,
ELEMENTAL 3 features the best-of-the-best Autodesk 3ds Max art. We’re
excited that Autodesk Maya and Autodesk Mudbox artwork is included for the
first time. Congratulations to everyone whose work is featured in ELEMENTAL
3. Prepare to be amazed!”
Marc Petit, Senior Vice President, Autodesk Media & Entertainment
For the third edition of ELEMENTAL, Ballistic Publishing appointed an
advisory board to assist in nominating and judging images for the ELEMENTAL
3 awards. All of these people are either leading artists in their own right
or are experienced and respected members of the Autodesk product team.
ELEMENTAL 3 features 246 examples of the world’s best digital art created
with Autodesk software from 170 artists in 43 countries.
Award categories included: Architecture Exterior (Public/Residential);
Architecture Interior (Public/Residential); Architecture/Reconstruction;
Characters; Creatures; Robotic/Cyborg; Product Design; Still Life;
Transport; Abstract; and Environment. A wide range of styles and subject
matter are showcased in ELEMENTAL 3 with an emphasis on architectural
visualization. Several notable architectural firms are represented with
visualizations spanning interior/exterior public spaces, commercial
buildings, and interior/exterior residential spaces.
ELEMENTAL 3 is the only art book showcasing the work of CG artists in
architectural visualization, and is the first Ballistic title to dedicate
half of its pages to architectural subjects. Printed to the highest
standards, the book features individually color-corrected pieces of original
art with a richness and depth not found in other art books.
