I don't see anything on the events calendar - will SideFX be there doing a Hive or anything?

Hey there, we won't have a HIVE at this year's SA, but we're hosting a presentation at UTS (Isaac Turier from Rising Sun Pictures) and a social at a bar nearby. More details on both of those later this week. We're also supporting the SIGGRAPH Asia Student Volunteers as usual.

Somewhat related, while not at SIGGRAPH Asia but in the Asia Pacific region, we're hosting a VFX Workshop in Singapore the week of Dec 4-8.
