3FX: Beyond Great Animation

Posted: July 21st, 2011 | Author: Steve | Filed under: medical animation | Tags: , , , , | No Comments »

We love the animation work that we do here at 3FX. However, it’s always exciting to to expand into other areas and use our creative talent to show off our client’s material. Recently, we finished up a couple magazine covers for one of our clients and we’re thrilled with how the visuals on the cover turned out. One of them was for Contemporary OB/GYN magazine and another was for Contemporary Pediatrics. Check out our links below to each magazine. Let us know what you think of our cover art. There’s also some really interesting articles throughout that you can click through.

June 2011 issue of Contemporary OB/GYN:

July 2011 issues of Contemporary Pediatrics:

We really enjoy working on these covers and hope that more opportunities to show our creativity open up in the future.


Another Successful 3FX Summer Picnic

Posted: July 1st, 2011 | Author: Steve | Filed under: medical animation | Tags: , , , | No Comments »

One day every summer, we like to get our team away from thinking about schedules, 3D models, and rendering and instead focus on other things like sun, fun, and good food!

Yesterday was our annual 3FX Summer Picnic. It was great to get everyone out from behind their desks and soak up some of the beautiful weather we’ve been having lately. This year’s picnic took us to Norristown Farm Park and fun was had by all. We started the day off playing the “Baggo” bean bag toss game, which was a surprise hit with everyone. Before the day came to an end, everyone was able to show off their frisbee, badminton, and volleyball skills as well.

Of course, no day at the park would be complete without delicious food, and we didn’t leave there hungry. Burgers, hot dogs, salads, fresh fruit, and refreshing drinks were all on the menu.

It’s great to take a day to reward our team for all of the hard work they do. With another successful picnic in the books, we’re already looking forward to next year!
