OUR TESTIMONIALS
I would like to thank the whole team of PopcornFX for their precious support! Among other things for helping Frima to integrate PopcornFX into its VFX pipeline, for always being available for our FX team, and for solving all issues we had, within an extremely short delay. I have rarely seen such deep involvement from a middleware provider and I can't wait to use their efficient editor for Frima's next productions.

I am very, very happy, I never ever won any contest in my life, and definitely I never won a VFX contest! Thanks to all of you who took part in the contest. It was really awesome experience to compete against such talented people. There are definitely more cool entries than there are places on a podium. Also many thanks for organizing this contest, for all the sponsors. Prizes are truly exceptional, theme was really challenging and the whole experience was great. Thank you all and I hope to see you guys taking part in another contest!

OUR TESTIMONIALS
Crowfall relies nearly exclusively on PopcornFX for its visual effects. It grants a level of control you could only beg for with Unity's Shuriken. The ability to script on the nodes of spawners opens all sorts of doors for organic, chaotic, but very controlled particle systems. Persistant Studios is always looking to its community for ways to improve the editor and integration with Unity! Once you dive in and witness its power, there will be no turning back.

OUR TESTIMONIALS
The integrated result of iClone and PopcornFX is phenomenal due to the invaluable teamwork with Persistant Studios. Now iClone users can design brand new VFX using the powerful PopcornFX Editor. Reallusion has dedicated lots of effort to building five VFX Tools that allow users to create custom particle effects without the need to write a single line of code. Additionally, we have produced a substantial amount of learning samples and training materials to get anyone started with this amazing technology.
