Subject: Introducing ShaderGel and Strobe

Hi folks,
Today we are introducing a new package of Carrara plug-ins, ShaderGel and Strobe.

Now leverage the power of Carrara's shaders with your lights! ShaderGel lets you use procedural shaders as the gel. It features a number of different mapping options and can even interface with Cognito to drive the mapping parameters.

Strobe is a new shader mixer that can switch between three different input shaders and black, according to a programmed mixing schedule. It makes cyclically changing shaders much easier and can also be controlled by Cognito.

You can learn all about ShaderGel and Strobe at
