Hope everyones doing OK with the ongoing coronavirus struggles around the world!

Thought I’d write a quick update now on what’s happening at CG Shortcuts over the next few weeks in case you’re wondering where we’ve gone;).

I was actually visiting family in Australia when the world started going into lockdown so I’m now stuck in Brisbane Australia, until the airports (and the local government) give the OK to fly back to the UK.

As such I personally have very limited access to the web and to a decent computer (a friend has helped me cobble together a PC with C4D today thankfully) Seems the whole world is now working from home so sourcing equipment has been a bit tricky.

The rest of the team is dotted around the globe, many of whom are facing similar issues.

So for now we’re not really able to deliver any new tutorials, but we will still be supporting people on our Facebook Group and Website, as well as all of our lovely students and Patrons.

Fantastic to hear a lot of people have taken to learning CG while in isolation to get through these tough times, some amazing work being generated out of this!

Keep inspiring each other and I’m sure we’ll get through this!

All the best
