About this event

Join Foundry's Look Development & Lighting Meet-Up to learn about what's new with Katana and Mari and to preview their respective roadmaps.

The Katana team will discuss what has been done to improve Katana’s performance space, the continued advancements in look development, and their exciting long-term vision for USD. On the Mari side, we'll review the continued effort to streamline USD workflows and take a look at the artist tools coming in Mari 6.
