TouchDesigner giveaway! I’ve personally benefited greatly from the amount of knowledge sharing in the TouchDesigner community. I can’t count the amount of times I’ve been stuck and found a useful component to use as an example on the forum. Don’t even get me started on the amount of times I’ve figured out a solution to something by…

The master plans Time after time, situation after situation, job after job, there’s always a plan. A detailed plan. Not just some “do this, then that, then that, then that”, but a “do this by this date, if XYZ happens then we pivot to so and so, all the while watching ABC for changes to…
