Let's talk Hollywood for a moment. Star Wars.
Jurassic Park. Toy Story. The Phantom Menace. These movies have married
genius designers with outrageous computing power and the results have people
walking out of theaters muttering in disbelief, "how the hell did they do
that?"
What about television. From Letterman's acrobatic 'Top 10 List' zipping
across the screen to the opening logo of your favorite newscast, 3D
rendering and animation is now considered an entertainment staple. There is
no doubt that 3D effects capture, hold, and mesmerize audiences of all
types, but most of us do not have George Lucas on our payroll. Still, the
dream of adding 3D and big screen multimedia effects to our personal
masterpieces lives on.
This is what inspired us to start Electric Rain. With bandwidth increasing,
the onset of Internet multimedia is truly emerging. We're not talking about
first generateion online multimedia - pointless animation, loud banner ads,
and choppy audio and video streaming. We're talking about experiencing web
site like experiencing movies (like
Tokyo
Plastic & 2advanced
). Engaging people in a way that they will retain what they've seen and
have a strong desire to revisit.
Electric Rain is poised to deliver 3D and
multimedia solutions for the rest of us. Our tools combined with emerging
authoring tools and technologies will allow everyone to create inspiring Web
sites that communicate based on design and motion, carrying incredible
emotional impact.
Through the release of its standalone
application, Swift 3D, and the licensing of the company’s proprietary RAViX
3D Vector Rendering Technology, Electric Rain has quickly become the
industry-leading developer and supplier of 3D-to-vector Flash solutions.

is the essential 3D tool for
designers.
That's right - Swift 3D v6
introduces a very simple but
extremely powerful Boolean primitive
to our modeler, which allows you to
combine or punch holes through
objects using other 3D objects in
your scene. It's all
non-destructive, allowing easy
editing and unlimited possibilities
Swift 3D is the only 3D tool
to offer direct integration
with Adobe Flash through the
Swift 3D File Importer.
SmartLayer Technology offers
designers ultimate control
over their 3D vector
renderings. All important
aspects are automatically
separated out into different
layers when imported to
Flash, reducing file size
and broadening design
possibilities.
