Hey everyone!
I'm curious how to get started on Flame and/or Inferno systems. I've been working on node based desktop applications [Digital Fusion, Shake] on feature films for the past 3 years, but now I feel like kicking it up a notch and inviting some change into my life. I used to know Combustion and am familiar with Toxik so I figure those are a decent starting ground. I'm not so worried about being able to learn the Flame/Inferno systems- I know I can do that- but how does one get into it?
How does one get time on those systems? How do I get started professionally on a Flame/Inferno? Do companies ever offer to train new employees in exchange for their employment?
Perhaps working at a studio with both desktop and Flame/Inferno artists would be the best option?
What do you guys [and gals] think?
