Why do we offer Artlantis ?

Today they are students in architecture, design or city planning, and tomorrow they will work for real. Why not considering them as professionals already ? That�s what we do. By offering the students FREE Artlantis Studio serial numbers for one year, we express our conviction that school conditions should be similar to the professional ones. That�s why this offer includes a full commercial license without any functional limitation. We believe that builders of tomorrow need the best technological, educational and financial existing tools, in order to learn and open their way to their future.

Since October 2006, when we first launched our special educational offer, more than 216 schools an 12 000 students have been equipped with Artlantis.

Artlantis Studio 1.2 reviewed in MacUser in October 2006 :

�Artlantis, a rendering - and now animation - program from French developer Abvent, has always relied on a lateral-thinking approach to its tasks. The original version wowed 3D artists with its ability to drag and drop materials onto objects in a fully rendered 3D environment, then have those same objects' material attributes update in real time. This approach saved users from the endless apply-test render-tweak cycle and was a real breath of fresh air compared to the processor speeds of ten years ago.�
