The NVidia Pixel Bender contest was extended to the end of February. You’ve got two more weeks to submit your filters for some pretty sweet prizes!
More info in my previous post or go straight to the contest page on the NVidia website!
Ryan Taylor presented at the Adobe MAX conference in San Francisco last November on Pixel Bender. I didn’t get to see it because I was teaching the tutorial at the same time, so I was really looking forward to watching the video. It is finally up! I’m really impressed because Ryan got a lot of the info at the very last minutes (it was changing right up to MAX) and still put together a great talk. There are a couple of minor errors in it on some of the background, but nothing major. Unfortunately, the recording gets cut off, but it is still a good talk if you want to get a good view of Pixel Bender for CS4.
Lee Brimelow (who also created the great Pixel Bender tutorials at gotoandlearn.com) has a good shorty tutorial as part of the ADC Presents series and does a really nice walkthrough of a Pixel Bender kernel. It’s basically the 10 minute condensed version of the Pixel Bender tutorials we did at MAX.
Paul from Flash Downunder also does a great tutorial on using Pixel Bender in Flash as well that goes into a bit more depth.
