Pixar has announced the 12th edition of RenderMan Art Challenge. In the “First Contact” themed Challenge, artists are invited to channel interstellar magic and all things alien. With models from Adobe, KitBash3D, Greyscalegorilla, Ozone3D, and Pixar, artists will have the chance to showcase their shading, lighting, rendering, and compositing skills for the possibility of multiple prizes, including a Dell Pro Max 16 mobile workstation powered by NVIDIA. Mentorship opportunities and extended trials for leading 3D apps will be available. Check out the Art Challenge announcement video now:Source: RenderMan
