Flame 2015 Extension 2 to bring Shotgun integration

Autodesk is previewing Extension 2 for its Flame compositing and VFX software, which incorporates support for Shotgun, the cloud-based production tracking, review and asset management platform acquired by Autodesk last June. The new Flame/Shotgun integration will enable Flame artists to efficiently share project work in the cloud.

Integration highlights include:

• Publish conformed sequences from Flame and Flame Assist to Shotgun – using Shotgun, facilities can set up the distribution of project shots, which can be assigned to artists as needed.
• Automated access to media and batch setups in Flare.
• Shot Versioning – once published, new Flare shots are immediately available in Flame, so artists can update a shot, series of shots or all shots within the Flame timeline to versions created by Flare artists throughout the facility.
• Shot review and approval – artists can send Flame or Flare clips directly to Shotgun’s review and approval tools, allowing project stakeholders to annotate and approve shots within the software.
