Swift 3D PS – 3D Plug-In for Photoshop CS4 Extended
New plug-in brings powerful and easy-to-use 3D toolset to the Photoshop CS4 Extended interface
BOULDER, Colo., March 5 /PRNewswire/ — Today Electric Rain, Inc.(R) announced the release of Swift 3D(R) PS, a new plug-in that adds 3D modeling and animation tools to the Photoshop CS4 Extended authoring environment. The plug-in allows Photoshop users to quickly and easily accomplish simple to advanced 3D tasks without leaving the CS4 Extended interface.
“Swift 3D is already very well known in the Flash community and we’re excited to see it introduced as a plug-in to Photoshop CS4 Extended,” commented John Nack, Principal Product Manager for Photoshop & Bridge at Adobe Systems.
Swift 3D PS incorporates the same intuitive interface and toolset as the full version of Swift 3D, making it a good fit for designers that are new to 3D or want to accomplish simple 3D tasks. It also provides advanced modeling and animation capabilities, including new Boolean operations, for designers who want to delve deeper into 3D or expand the workflow into After Effects CS4.
“Swift 3D PS marks an exciting new direction for our designer-oriented 3D tools,” said Mike Soucie, President of Electric Rain. “By plugging into the world’s most powerful 2D design environment, Swift 3D PS not only simplifies and accelerates common “faux-3D” tasks, but opens the door for some very exciting new design possibilities in Photoshop and After Effects. We expect to see some amazing results.”
