Here are the pics I was able to get today on the floor. The security guards were real assholes about people taking pictures, but that didnt stop people, there were also so many people bumping into others it was hard to get a clean or clear shot of stuff, anyhow here you go, first few are from the lobby of the brand new Westin Hotel where the Autodesk Master classes were held (connected to the main convention center)

:shock: whoaaah great stuff, I'd say go for a higher sampling level, check your scene scale, and maybe check roughness values on some on the glossy mats. Too much glare map effect on the fifth one. Nice... :)

That's quite a "stream of consciousness" set of shots you've got there Jeff. Were you on a conveyor belt or something? :lol:

I'm sorry Jeff, ...but these pics have the distinct feeling that you don't want to be seen or your hiding from someone ???

What am I missing here ?

Welcome to Amerika.

I don't know about Boston or SIGGRAPH, but taking pictures in similar settings here in DC could easily get you on the wrong side of the Security guys in a heart beat.

between the security guards at the front which is where the next limit booth was (thats why there was only one shot there) and the tons of people of people around the big booths (autodesk, lucas, pixar, ati) it was hard to frame and snap clear shots. Something about lots of people bags full of swag and poster tubes, manners go out the window, but glad everyone liked, NL put together some really kick ass large, probably 14"x14" books of Maxwell and Realflow, full of all the kickass images everyone has been making
