?”Carrara 4 helps us to satisfy the needs of two very important audiences,?” said Bob Stockwell, Eovia?s Director of Sales and Marketing in the press release. ?”Carrara 4 Standard is very inviting software with a very inviting price, and Carrara 4 Pro delivers an advanced toolset to assist professionals in reaching the top of their game.?”

In addition to the new Carrara 4 features already announced, the shipping version includes an updated Scene Wizard, faster OpenGL, raytraced depth of field, shader transforms, the ability to apply shaders to a group, and more accurate physics on the Mac.

Eovia Carrara 4 software supports design for motion media, print, and the web. Additionally, this release complements every designer?’s creative suite by providing improved interchange with industry-leading design applications, web tools, and video editing and effects software.
