The Art of Rendering | fxguide
Rendering is always an exercise in managing how much computer power you are willing to devote to simulating reality – that cost is expressed in both dollars and time. Once considered a commodity item in the whole CG / VFX world – rendering is now a hot topic. CG supervisor Scott Metzger jokes that one can’t talk about renderers without annoying someone.
I'm in the process of making a few different design documents at the moment, so that our iPhone development team can have some options to choose from.

ARTNATOMY
I begun to project this tool (which I have designed, draw and developed) by necessity, as a "war tool" for my pupils, by the time I taught at a Fine Arts University, in order to provide them the minimum information, and also make my job easier (not needing to manage thousands slides and photocopies...). I also supposed that a tool like this could be helpful for institutions not equipped at all. It has also been presented as Academic Work (in my way to became Doctor) registered in 2005, at the Drawing Department of the Fine Arts University (UPV) in Valencia (SPAIN), as "ARTNATOMY/ARTNATOMIA: Anatomia de la expresión facial: manual interactivo" (I want to thank Doctor Carlos Plasencia Climent: without his help and advice, the application would not be so complete and rigorous).
